Why Tom Brady was the GOAT

Keeping my fingers crossed!

 

 

I’ve gotta know who hooked up Brady’s hair. Went from thinning and on the way to balding (like his father) to a full, thick mane. Supposedly some clinic in Rhode Island, I need the deets 😅

Long time Brady hater, but I always respected & defended him when people would downplay his success.

 

Everything he said here lines up exactly with what we saw on the field. People sometimes talked about him like he was just good with timing routes, but the reality was he knew where he wanted to go before snapping the ball. 

 

If that wasn't there, he knew exactly where everyone else was. His internal clock was nearly perfect too, and if a play took a bit too long to develop, he'd just get rid of the ball. He wasn't athletic enough to try & extend plays too long, but he sure knew how to move around in the pocket. 

 

What's most impressive to me is the fact he always maintained that same desire to win, regardless of how much success he had. 

 

Even when he already tied Joe Montana & Terry Bradshaw for most SB wins by a QB, something that wasn't supposed to be possible in the free agency era, he wasn't satisfied. Even when he was alone at the top of the record books with 5 SB wins, he went on to win another. In one QB generation he took the Pats from a 0 SB win franchise to tied with the Steelers for most all time.

 

Then he won a 7th.

 

Winning 5 or 6 rings was supposed to be an NBA thing & not possible in the NFL. That's why despite how much I hated him as an opponent, I'm still glad I got to watch him. Only wish we could've been the ones to face off with him in the Super Bowl when he went to Tampa Bay.
