Tom Brady equals Peyton Manning's Super Bowl record. Manning was a member of the Indianapolis Colts in Super Bowl XLII (2006) and the Denver Broncos in Super Bowl 50. (2015). Brady won six Super Bowls with the New England Patriots before joining as a free agency with the Buccaneers last spring. The two teams met in the AFC Championship Game on Sunday, Jan. 20 at NRG Stadium in Houston.
Brady and the Patriots defeated the Atlanta Falcons 34-29 to advance to their third Super Bowl appearance in four years. It was also his fourth championship game overall. The last time these two teams met was in 2013 at New England. That game was tied at 28 before Tom Brady led three touchdown drives in the final quarter for his third victory over the Falcons in the big game.
New England will face off against Seattle in Super Bowl LI on February 5th at 6:30 PM ET in Houston. This is only the second time that the Seahawks have made it to the big game; they lost to Green Bay by a score of 21-10 in 2015. The Patriots are making their fifth Super Bowl appearance and looking to win their fourth title in five seasons. They defeated Dallas in Foxborough 26-14 in overtime of the first round before defeating Atlanta in the conference championship.
New England has never lost when leading into the final minute of the game.
Tom Brady, the greatest quarterback of all time, will play in his 10th Super Bowl on Sunday. He's had a lot of success in these games, having won six of them. Two of his three losses were against the same quarterback, Eli Manning. The other occurred in 2017 against Nick Foles. Brady has never lost back-to-back Super Bowls.
Brady has been involved in some huge plays in the Super Bowl. In 2014, he threw a game-winning touchdown pass with no time left on the clock. Three years later, he led the Patriots on another last-minute drive before being stopped by Malcolm Butler at the 1-yard line.
In between, there have been countless others: passes that fell incomplete, interceptions returned for touchdowns, games decided by one score or less. No player other than Brady has ever appeared in more Super Bowls than him and still managed to avoid losing several games.
He is the most successful quarterback in postseason history and has a record of 20-3 including playoffs. He also holds the NFL record for most wins by a quarterback (10).
Brady has always been able'the focus on one thing when playing well beyond expectations. He's been doing this since he entered the NFL in 2001 when he was selected with the 199th pick in the 2000 NFL Draft. Since then, he hasn't had a single season where he didn't make the playoffs.
NFL quarterbacks with numerous Super Bowl victories include:
On Sunday night, Tom Brady led the Tampa Bay Buccaneers to a 31-9 victory against the reigning champion Kansas City Chiefs in a game played in the shadow of a deadly epidemic and a nation riven by political and ethnic divide. The loss ended the Chiefs' season and prevented them from defending their title.
Brady and the Patriots will now go up against the winner of this year's NFL championship game between the Philadelphia Eagles and the New York Giants for the right to face Denver in the Super Bowl LI. The game is being held at NRG Stadium in Houston on February 5th at 3:00 PM EST. The Patriots are seeking their ninth Super Bowl victory and would be going up against the current champion Eagles if they were still playing in Philly instead of Gillette Stadium in Massachusetts.
It was reported earlier this week that Brady had agreed to join CBS during the NFL's annual broadcast of the Super Bowl television show. He will not play a role in any aspect of the broadcast, but will appear in commercials and other promotional materials. He has already filmed one commercial for Chrysler vehicles that will air during the game.
Brady came out of retirement in 2014 to sign with the Patriots as a 36-year-old rookie quarterback who had never won more than three games in a season.
Peyton Manning, Eli's older brother, also won two Super Bowls, although he had a considerably more spectacular career in terms of individual stats. His entrance into the Hall of Fame when he becomes eligible next year is seen as a foregone conclusion. Credit: Credit: Credit
However, Brady's seventh ring, his first since leaving the Patriots, is sure to have considerable personal worth. The following is a list of players who have won the most Super Bowls in NFL history, including Brady and a slew of 49ers and Steelers during their respective famous title streaks.
What, two Super Bowls? Manning had an impressive 18-year career as the Colts' (1998–2011) and Denver Broncos' (2012–15) starting quarterback, winning two Super Bowls and defeating each of the current 32 NFL organizations. The first was a 43-8 blowout win over the New England Patriots in Indianapolis; the second was a 54-10 victory over the Seattle Seahawks at MetLife Stadium in East Rutherford, New Jersey.
Manning finished his NFL career with more than 60,000 yards of offense and 55 touchdowns against only 13 interceptions. He is currently third on the all-time list behind Joe Montana (he of the gold jacket) and John Elway. However, he does not have a Super Bowl title to his name.
In addition to his playing career, Manning has been involved in three other Super Bowls as a coach. With the Colts, he helped them reach the 2004 AFC Championship Game before losing to the Steelers. In 2015, he led the Broncos to their first Super Bowl victory over the Carolina Panthers.
Both losses by Manning came in Super Bowls that he played in. He has never lost when not wearing a helmet.
In conclusion, Manning is one of the greatest quarterbacks of all time and will always be remembered for his incredible career.
