Tom Brady had a very unfortunate Sunday, as things didn’t go according to his plan. Despite a good spell delivered by him, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers failed to register a win against the New Orleans Saints. However, even after suffering a loss, the GOAT still managed to break yet another NFL record, this time passing Drew Brees.
Breaking a record or two a week has become the norm for the GOAT. And this week was no special since he broke the NFL record for most career games with 3+ Pass TDs (98), previously held by Drew Brees. However, his record seemed incomplete, as even after scoring four TD passes, the Buccaneers fell short of nine points.

And that is why, even when being a part of the losing side, he does his part, which is to hurl as many TD passes and cover as many yards as possible. Although it was not his day this Sunday, as he overturned the ball three times late in the game, giving the Saints an advantage over them. However, even after the loss, the Buccaneers still hold the top spot in the NFC South table.

When talking about the most influential quarterbacks in the NFL all-time, Tom Brady and Drew Brees hold the top spot on that list. The two beasts were always on each other’s neck, breaking and creating new records until Brees decided to retire and Brady was left on his own.
Tom Brady has officially thrown more touchdown passes in his 40s than he did in his 20s, which has to be one of the most ridiculous stats I’ve ever heard.

Since then Brady has been tearing down the name of Brees off the charts and claiming it with him. As being the lone survivor of his generation of quarterbacks, this is exactly what he was expected to do after all.
