The New England Patriots set the gold standard for productive football over the past two decades.
A large part of that is thanks to Tom Brady, the best quarterback and arguably the best player, to ever walk this earth. Brady won seven Super Bowls during his time as New England’s quarterback, including three in four seasons (2001, 2002, 2004), plus he holds 10 all-time NFL records.
Since briefly retiring – then signing with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in 2020 – New England has tried everything to find its next quarterback of the future.
