There can only be one in each sport. In the NBA, it is Michael Jordan. In the NHL, it is Wayne Gretzky. In the MLB, it is Babe Ruth. AND IN THE NFL IT IS TOM BRADY!
The 40 year old New England Patriots quarterback is headed back to yet another Super Bowl in 13 days. The 6’4 and 225 pound QB has had a historic career since he was drafted in the 6th round out of the University of Michigan. There were 198 other players drafted ahead him that year, including dozens of quarterbacks. The way that Brady slipped through the cracks will be studied and looked at for years by NFL front office people as well as the so called draft experts on ESPN.
Most players in the NFL have been retired for several years by the time they reach 40, but not Tom Brady. In fact, he has stated publicly that he plans on playing for a few more years at least. He takes incredible care of his body and eats the most healthy and well planned diet in the league. And it shows as he continues to play at an MVP level.
Tom Brady has won 5 Super Bowls so far and this one will likely be his 6th. The Patriots will be heavy favorites when they line up against the Philadelphia Eagles on February 4th in Minneapolis, Minnesota. Brady has won 4 Super Bowl MVP’s out of his 5 wins. He has been named the NFL MVP twice, in 2007 and 2010. He has been voted to the Pro Bowl 13x.
His stats speak for themselves. Brady has over 5,600 completions for over 66,000 yards. His completion percentage is 63.9%. He has thrown nearly 500 touchdowns and only 160 interceptions. His passer rating is 97.6. No one has won more games at quarterback than him in the regular season and the playoffs. His list of accomplishments are too long to list.
So why would Tom Brady even consider retirement after this Super Bowl? He shouldn’t. And I don’t think he will. He is still one of the best players in the NFL and there are ZERO signs of him slowing down. Regardless of what happens in Minnesota, Tom Brady has already cemented the title of the G.O.A.T.
Tom Brady is undoubtedly the Greatest of All Time.
Thank you for following @steemsports and you can find me @scottybuckets
I love Brady. But i hate the patriots. I’m tired of seeing them win. My team never has a chance and will never be as good. Brady is most definitely the best there is or ever was. There is a special spot in the hall of fame for him. We are all watching a historic quarterback

The Bengals..... i know i know. They were horrible this year. I know. But they have tough competition right from the beginning. Ravens and stealers are usually always good teams. We cant get out of this slump, but hopefully next year we see some improvement.
Who is your team?

I’m behind Marvin Lewis. He’s done some great stuff in Cincinatti. But recently the teams been on a decline.we’ll get back on track. The bears are a decent team. Better than the bengals i think

NBA is certainly Bill Russell.
As for Brady, hasn't Belichick also won a ton of games with his backups? Seems like Belichick could win with a lump of malleable dough at QB.
Eagles will win this Super Bowl, based mainly on the fact Nick Foles has the same story as a young Brady. From backup to SB winner. The difference tho, is one of cities and fanbase. The Eagles will fire Foles next year, whereas Belichick elevated Brady to starting roll forever, and won 4 more rings. Won't it just be classic when Foles wins the SB, he's fired, and Wentz never even gets to the big game despite a decade of trying?
that would be classic Philly sports.

It would be very interesting, If we ever have an opportunity to look at Brady without Belichick or at Belichick without Brady with the current franchise. Well, if Bill is enthusiastic enough, we'll have the second option.
But Tom likely won't play under any other coach in his career.
And here is the question: can he play at the same level without Belichik, having limited offensive options, you can just look through the "no-name" roster (besides Gronk)?
In my opinion nearly half of his greatness depends on the connection with Pats head coach, they've found that chemistry needed to win titles!

We've seen plenty of Belichick without Brady, he wins without him. NFL is littered with teams attempting to steal Belichick's successful backup QB, and no one wins with them. Remember Matt Cassell? In Pats uniform the guy couldn't lose, then... nothing.

Yeah, we've seen Belichick without Brady, but before their union ;)
Maybe I've said it in the wrong way - it would be also interesting to watch current Pats with Belichick, but without Brady. And not in the regular season, but in the games like against Jags)

Growing up in Newfoundland on the East coast of Canada our closest team was always the New England Patriots. Many years we watched like a lot of teams and our team never did much until the great snow game when Bledsoe got hurt. Tom stepped in and the rest you can say is history. It still amazes me how when he is down in points, he just dials it in and has such amazing focus. I was freaking out yesterday when we scored to go ahead in the game. Such an awesome player and brings so much to the game, So sad we have so many haters but then again every dynasty always did. Go TB12, Go Pats!!
