At 44, Brady leads the NFL with this record. As breaking records become natural for him, Tom Brady celebrated this with a front-camera video on his social media handles. A rejuvenated Brady showed his confidence in the video as he made a hot take.
Too easy for Tom Brady
Tom Brady is known for his witty captions and tweets. He also often lands funny one-liners as he attempts to be a source of entertainment even beyond the field for his fans.
In his latest video, Brady very nonchalantly celebrated his fourth-quarter thriller in a cocky way. He announced, “Three touchdown wins are overrated” in his video.

This was just his way of connecting with the fans as he saved it for the last three minutes of the game to show the NFL world why he is called the GOAT. While Brady is boasting about this situation since he came out on the better side, things could have been a lot different had he been on the losing side.

However, his numbers through the season do support his bold statement. Tom Brady has made a total of 16 touchdowns throughout the season. Of the six wins, Brady has thrown two touchdowns in two wins. One was from Monday night and another one came in a close-fought game against the Seahawks. The rest of the victories have come with fewer touchdowns thrown from the quarterback. As he says, three-touchdown wins are overrated, it is most intriguing to see that the only game in which Brady threw for three touchdowns this season ended up in a loss. This loss for Brady came against Patrick Mahomes’ Kansas City Chiefs team.
While the numbers often narrate stories of their own, these sort of go along with Brady’s latest statement. However, it doesn’t take away from the display the veteran quarterback put up. Tom Brady combined with two rookies on his team in the dying minutes of the game. He threw to Rachaad White and Cade Otton as he secured the win for the home team.
