Jordan, Lemieux, Ruth, These are 3 names that to me signify the best to have ever played their respective sports. Guys who did there best to win at any level and any age. Guys who are immortal in the eyes of sports fans. Going into this football season we already knew how the football world felt about their choice. Manning, Rodgers, Brees, Montana, Aikman. Just a few of the names football fans go back and forth about. Last night they saw the definitive answer. BRADY. 43 years old. 7 super bowl titles. 5 super bowl MVP awards. Last night he went against a kid who most believe is the next big thing. Tom Brady walked into Raymond James stadium last night with one purpose. ok maybe 2 but one actual purpose. To stuff the idea that anyone is on his level right down the collective throats of all who say other wise. Until last night Patrick Mahomes had not lost by double digits since college. He had not lost a game in 8 weeks. Him and his team were picked to win the game. This was supposed to be the final dance in a long and lustrous career for TB12. One problem. No one seemed to ask Brady if he was ready to come off the mountain top. I've been a pats fan my whole life and one thing I've noticed is that if you count out Thomas Edward Brady, you will very swiftly regret it. Brady methodically and deliberately embarrassed the chiefs last night. In the first half the chiefs shot them selves in the foot by giving brady and second chance after a failed 3rd down attempt. Then as if that wasn't enough right before half time they essentially gave him 2 extra time outs to do what he does best. Brady threw 3 TD passes last night. All 3 in the first half and All 3 to former Patriots team mates. Which me personally i think that was a big middle finger to Bob Kraft and company. But that's for a different time. Last night solidified the conversation for who is the greatest to ever play. Success is measured in championships, that's why the Yankees will always be considered the greatest franchise in baseball. Why the Lakers and Celtics will always be the best in basketball. There 2 NFL franchises with 6 super bowl wins. Brady played for one of them. There is only 1 person ever to have played the game of football who has won 7 super bowl championships. That's Tom Brady. There is only 1 person who has won 5 super bowl MVP awards. That's Tom Brady. When Brady left New England everyone thought he was going to LA to the chargers or even to San Francisco where he grew up watching his home town niners. But he shocked everyone. he went to the franchise that had the worst overall winning % in all of pro sports. A team who for a stretch of time couldn't even win a game. He went there, got his favorite target to come out of retirement and recruited his new best friend whom New England was quick to walk away from after some bad off field antics. Rightfully so by the way. But he got these 2 guys and him self down to Tampa, Which honestly was already pretty solid on the offensive side of the football. Having guys like Evans, and Godwin and a very reliable back in Fournette. He went there by choice and i fully believe he did it on purpose. To show everyone that they were wrong. He hasn't fallen. he hasn't taken a step back. He can still play and play at a high level. Tom Brady played this whole season with the biggest chip on his shoulder. He proved to everyone why the only name you should be saying when talking about the greatest to ever play football should be Thomas Edward Brady. Science has shown us that the earth has been around for millions and millions of years. I think everyone should give a little nod to the sky to whatever higher power has decided that we should get to live in the time of Tom Brady and his remarkable reign over the NFL.
