COMMENTARY
It’s hard to get the true measure of a career like Tom Brady’s simply because, well, there’s never been one like it.
After all, setting aside the raw numbers (seven Super Bowl titles, three MVPs, and five Super Bowl MVPs), how many players in NFL history have had seemingly two or three different “primes” in their careers, won multiple Super Bowls in two different decades, and gone out playing the game as well as they ever had (at 44 years old, no less)?
The answer: probably just one.
Brady’s 20 years with the Patriots were already enough for him to be the greatest player in NFL history.
