Five memorable moments in the career of seven-time Super Bowl champion Tom Brady, who confirmed his retirement from the NFL on Wednesday:
- Super Bowl 36 -
Brady's New England Patriots led the St.Louis Rams 17-3 going into the fourth quarter of the championship game of the 2001 season.
The potent Rams offense responded with two quick scores that tied the game with 1:30 left to play.
With no timeouts left, the Patriots opted not to run out the clock and go to overtime.
Brady, a second-year player who was thrust into the starting role because of an early-season injury to Drew Bledsoe, piloted a Patriots drive from their own 17 yard line, completing five of six passing attempts for 53 yards to put kicker Adam Vinatieri in range to make the game-winning field goal as time expired.
