[@go2JAmar]

36 SBs since Tom has been in the league? That would mean he’s been in the NFL since he was 8-9 yrs old

[@jpal1993]

@@gdknght9581 I see the point, but you still have to play those teams that “weren’t guaranteed” when it came time in the playoffs. Those teams included The Gruden/Gannon led Raiders that went onto the Super Bowl the next year, The Top seeded Steelers that same year, and the Greatest Show on Turf. Next they knocked off the CO MVPs in consecutive weeks in McNair and Manning and beat a pretty explosive Panthers team. They than beat future champions in the Steelers and Colts as well as an Eagles team that was in the NFC championship game year after year leading up to that. They knocked off the best Chargers roster of all time, then did it again (although with Rivers on a bad leg) But you still had LT, Gates, and that defense. They knocked off the Ravens twice during their Super Bowl runs and a colts team lead by Andrew Luck. They beat the legion of Boom…down 10 in the 4th. They beat the Falcons down 28-3 and then the next year followed it up by appearing in another Super Bowl after beating the number one defence (again) in the title game and eventually falling to the eagles (throwing 500 plus yards). The next year they dominated the Rams who had (similar to the falcons) one of the top offenses in the league. And in Tampa, Tom went through Brees, Rodgers, and Mahomes. The competition was THERE. They just weren’t good enough.

Most guys deserve to get paid and have the dedication to win just as much as Brady has. We give the billionaire owners a pass when we as fans think players are selfish for not “taking a pay cut”. They should be able to pay the players and field a good team. These guys are one hit away from having their career end so they are trying to earn while they can. Brady has had the upbringing, and benefit that the average guy in the NFL will never have. Yes, it’s great he took a cut, but it should never be the expectation for anyone.

But the comeback against the Falcons, on the greatest stage, with the ball in his hands, that’s where he cemented his legacy as the greatest QB in NFL history. When he moved to Tampa and won another ring, I mean not even Montana did anything like that.

He's been a fixture in football for so long now, and I just took his greatness for granted. So many memories of great game winning drives. I just watched and marvelled as year after year flew by. My life went on too, with sometimes happy times, and sometimes sad times, and Tom always in the background being a great quarterback and seemed to always make it to the playoffs and frequently to the Superbowl. And then he joined the team I'd followed as a child in the 70s, before life and career took over, the Buccaneers. It became so much more interesting to me. It made me so happy when he helped them win the Superbowl. This past year he almost got them there again, but luck ran out this time. Thanks for the great memories Tom.

[@leetraviusmckay2919]

When he appeared in super bowl 55 last year. At that point he played in almost 20% of all super bowls. 18.5% to be exact.

That stat is even more impressive when you only count the superbowls that were played during his career

I’m going to miss TB12!! Can’t imagine NFL without him, it won’t ever be the same! He just made it all better every time he stepped on the field. He is literally was the GOAT, 7 Super Bowls and countless records that he set, no one will ever surpass!!

[@mickser101]

7 Superbowls, 10 Conference Championships, 18 Divisions, 15 Pro Bowls, 35 Playoff Wins, 86 Playoff TD's, Superbowl MVP 5 Times, All time Leaders in Wins, Yards, TD's and Completions. None of these Records will be broken for Decades, if ever. Congratulations Tom Brady you are the Undisputed GOAT, enjoy retirement.

I'm a Jets fan and call it stockholm syndrome..but always was a huge Brady fan. I'm happy he went out on his own terms at the top of his game. Watching Tom do what he did was nothing short of incredible and we'll never see it again. I honestly consider him my biggest role model for the consistency, drive and will to be the absolute best. It will never be emulated again IMO. Thank you TB12 for everything you gave us and the sport of football. Enjoy your beyond deserved retirement and hope he comes back as a coach or analyst in the future when he's ready.

[@thomaslavin7266]

One of Brady's most mind-boggling stats to me: Brady effectively played 20 seasons, not counting his rookie year when he backed up Bledsoe or 2008 when he was injured. He went to 10 Super Bowls and won 7. He went to the SB for HALF HIS CAREER, and won it for more than 1/3rd of his career. Unreal levels of success. I don't expect to see anything like this again in my lifetime, Shannon's right.
