What if Tom Brady never played for the Patriots?

[Note: It should be obvious, but this is satire. Tom Brady actually did play for the New England Patriots. Just for a moment, though, let’s consider another path...]

By this point in our shared NFL history, the New England Patriots’ greatness is less a notable data point and more an everlasting fact of life. You know the stats: six Super Bowl championships, nine AFC championships, 17 AFC East championships, 19 straight winning seasons.

So, yeah, the Pats are (or were) great, and Tom Brady is one of the best ever to play the game.
