[Schwab] Tom Brady throwing for 5,316 yards and 43 touchdowns, and leading the league in both categories at age 44, is one of the craziest things that has ever happened in sports history. We just have gotten so used to Brady doing this that it kind of went under the radar.

>>Before last season, through 101 seasons of NFL football, QBs who were 44 or older had 1,815 yards and 14 touchdowns. Combined. Brady tripled what everyone else had ever done over a full century before him.
Robbed of MVP
Hopefully he does it again, itll win me $1k 😅
Didn’t we have an extra game last year?
Ya but he missed 10 days of preseason!
Let’s not forget there are not 17 games.
Doesn’t change much. but stats dont hold weight they used to.
Utterly ridiculous that the guy who called everybody “woke” and lost two games for his team by not showing up to camp and getting Covid whilst unvaccinated won an award that declares him the MOST VALUABLE PLAYER.
The Brady Standard. He has obliterated reasonable expectations. We expect exceptional (not just great) seasons from him.We expect young, elite QBs to be winning multiple rings to be considered top tier. It hasn’t always been this way. Even hearing people say Rodgers ‘only’ has one ring, has its roots in Brady’s accomplishments, one use to be enough. TB is legend and shouldnt be a measuring stick.
GOAT
him being robbed of MVP helped mask how insane this really was
Bet he beats in both categories this season, if not, I’ll continue to make predictions on Reddit with no consequences.
