The NFL kicks off its season tonight with the Dallas Cowboys vs. the Tampa Bay Bucs.
The amazing Tom Brady will continue his quest for another Lombardi Trophy with Patrick Mahomes, Aaron Rodgers, and others trying to stop him from doing the unthinkable.
Tom Brady’s journey has been totally on the surreal side of a sport like the NFL.
George Blanda was a backup quarterback and a placekicker. What Tom Brady has done transcends modern professional sport.
If not for Tom Brady…what we NFL fans today would be pondering is if Patrick Mahomes and the Kansas City Chiefs could complete a threepeat for Andy Reid in the coming months ahead.
I still marvel at the thought Tom Brady wasn’t selected in the draft until the 6th round as the 199th player taken.
Granted he didn’t have a Heisman-type college career at Michigan, but one would think just the one singular performance in the win over Alabama would have gotten him picked no later than the second round.
Back in the day…Bart Starr with Lombardi’s Packers was a 17th round pick.
It just goes to show things which don’t go into modern metrics at times still do matter.
Tom Brady hates to lose…that’s the Tom Brady metric.
If you get a chance..watch the video above. It was truly an amazing college football game.
