This just in….

Most of us didn’t expect that. Knowing what a fierce competitor Brady is, we expected him to continue with a new team and prove to everyone he’s still got what it take to play in the NFL. It will be strange to watch a new season later this year with no Tom Brady in it.
Wishing the GOAT and future NFL Hall of Famer all the best in his new, more relaxed life. Enjoy Tom, you earned it. (See you in the booth)

Let’s take a walk down memory lane at some of our favorite TB times…

GALLERY: 12 Favorite Memories Of Tom Brady In New England

• The Brady-Manning Rivalry

  Share

  This rivalry was one to watch, but Tom took home the AFC trophy in 2004 beating Peyton Manning for the first time in a playoff game.

• 5 Touchdowns in one quarter

  A snowy game against the Titans lead Tom to throw five touchdowns in the second quarter alone with an ending score of 59-0.

• Beating The Steelers

• A perfect season

  Share

  Tom brought the Pats to a perfect regular season in 2007 with 16-0.

• The “Tuck Rule”

  Share

  This moment is one Raiders fans will never forget. Tom had the football when he was hit, brining the ball into his body. At first it was ruled a fumble, but upon inspection the refs ruled it an incomplete forward pass, giving possession back to New England. The game sent the Pats to the Super Bowl in the 2001-2002 season.

• Patriots Seahawks Super Bowl Game

  Share

  The Pats were down 10 points, but that didn’t mean anything to Tom. They went on to win the 2015 Super Bowl. Who could forget Malcolm Butler wrapped up on the sidelines in defeat?
• Back-To-Back Super Bowls

  Share

  The rings started to pile up for Tom after he brought the Pats to the Super Bowl for back-to-back titles following the 2003-2004 seasons.

  In 2016 the Patriots beat the Rams which earned Tom his 201st victory of his career, passing Peyton Manning as the quarterback with the most wins in NFL history.

  Share

  The years haven’t slowed down Tom at all. At age 40 he took home the NFL MVP.
• The Gronk and Brady Special

  Share

  The Pats were up against the Rams in the 2019 Super Bowl and tied in the fourth quarter. With about 7 minutes left Tom threw a perfect pass to Rob Gronkowski to the two-yard line, later resulting in a touchdown.

• The one that started it all!

  Share

  Tom won his very first Super Bowl with Bill Belichick in 2002 against the Rams. Nothing beats seeing the ducks make their way through Boston for the big celebration.

• Super Bowl Comeback

  Share

  This is the game no Pats fan will ever forget. In 2017 Tom and the Patriots came back from a 28-3 score to win the Superbowl over the Atlanta Falcons. NEVER count the GOAT out!!
