He won the Super Bowl six times in nine total appearances. He basically played in the Super Bowl every other year on average.
Tom’s record was a remarkable 219-64 as a starter, threw for 74,571 yards, and won the NFL’s MVP three times. He is going to walk into the Hall of Fame one day but he isn’t done playing yet. He is going to suit up for another team which is going to be incredibly weird. Football fans have to go back two decades to remember a time where Tom Brady wasn’t the New England Patriots QB1 going into the season.
