Tom Brady arrived in Tampa Bay, Florida, amidst much fanfare, pomp, and expectations. It’s safe to say that he more than lived up to the hype.
After a shaky start to his Tampa Bay Buccaneers career, Brady found his rhythm midway through the regular season. Bruce Arians’ boys finished 2nd in the NFC South with an 11-5 record.
They qualified for the NFL Playoffs and put up a strong display in the Wild Card Round against NFC East champions, Washington Football Team.

The Bucs followed that up with another convincing 20-30 win over divisional rivals New Orleans Saints in the Divisional Round. But the icing on the cake was the 26-31 win over the Aaron Rodgers-led Green Bay Packers in the NFC Championship game 2 weeks ago.
And now they go up against the most-feared team in the league, the defending champions, Kansas City Chiefs. What lies in store for Brady and his band of speedsters?

On the latest installment of Fox Sports show Skip and Shannon: Undisputed, co-host Skip Bayless singled out 6-time Super Bowl winner Tom Brady for special recognition.
He said, “If he does pull that off, then on a degree of difficulty, I think this is the greatest postseason run in the history of sports, given where you started from because he took a team that was 7 and 9.

“There was pandemic, there was quarantine, there was no real offseason, there was zero preseason games, you get thrown into the fire in game one against your archrival at New Orleans,” Bayless said on the show.
Brady has thrown for 5,000+ passing yards with 40+ passing touchdowns (including Playoffs) this season. He will be eager to end the season on high by winning his 7th Super Bowl title this weekend.
