Brady fans can point out, correctly, the wins in the AFCCG and then the SB. And yeah, we know that Dee Ford and a charmin OL are primarily responsible but man, the scoreboard is hard to beat.

Patrick Mahomes is 0-2 vs. Brady in the post-season. And there it shall remain. Sucks, but it is what it is. There's no real "Yeah, and Curry couldn't hit water if he fell out of a boat in the 4th quarter of Game 7" kind of dagger (because yeah, he absolutely choked that game away) but it's still 0-2.

except Brady and Mahomes weren't on the field at the same time like Curry and Lebron were...


and there's that whole spygate thing which helped Brady read defenses early in his career.

Larry Bird.

Michael Jordan.

Not even the dumbest baaaawston chowdah head would take Bird over Jordan. And by the time Mahomes is done, it will be just as obvious to them that they shouldn't take Brady over Mahomes.

Jordan ended up with 6 rings compared to Larry’s 3 rings. Mahomes is not gonna be able to dwarf Brady’s ring count. It’s just too bad Dee Ford went offsides. The Playoff record would be 1-1 and Brady would have 6 rings instead of 7 rings.

Let’s just see how it plays out, ok? I would give Mahomes the GOAT crown if he ends up 6-1 in SBs vs Brady’s 7-3.

And 11 rings dwarfs 6 rings. So Bill Russell now? Another Celtic?

It's not cut-and-dried, no, but if fans are going to bring up head to head matchups as proof of something, then you gotta do it across the board.

Also, basketball is way more dependent on individual leaders and performers. It's 5 guys versus 22.

Eli Manning, Nick Foles,Jake Plummer,Mark Sanchez, Joe Flacco, and Ryan Tannehill have taken Brady out in the Playoffs are they better than Tom?

My annoyance with that is it was rookie Mahomes vs 5-time SB winning Brady and only a slightly older Mahomes vs 6-time SB winning Brady.... and I guess the argument could be "well, if Mahomes is so great, he wouldn't need experience to beat Brady, he'd just do so" (besides the fact that he does need the ball to do so, which didn't happen in OT the first time)

I mean.... I don't care much because the GOAT stuff is so overplayed and overly debated. Brady will always be their GOAT, Mahomes will always be ours. No amount of rings or stats will sway most fans.

But, we all saw the gameplan in the SB loss and we all know Mahomes has made huge strides in his game since then, so he can win when hero ball isn't working.

We were just a few years off seeing peak Mahomes vs Brady.
