What makes Brady so damn good? Tony G had a little insight to that question.

Was watching Whitlock and Wiley this week and that question came up and Tony G had an interesting take. He said Tom Brady is good period but what has helped to set him apart from all other elite QBs was his willingness to leave contract money on the table.

Tony Gonzalez says that Brady has left an estimated $100 million on the table. Brady wants to be the undisputed GOAT and in order to give the Patriots the money to keep the talent at an above average level he was willing to take less than the market would have paid. Tony also added that Tom's squeeze makes more money than Tom so it helped him make those tough contract decisions.

Great arm, smart decision making, with a cool demeanor and unflappable confidence at all times

he has someone like dee ford line up in the neutral zone to take away a game losing interception. on the other hand, drew brees gets a no call when his opponent literally tackles his receiver on what would have got his team to the super bowl

No doubt. Couple that with the desire to win and then to take less money to help the team afford talent and I'll be damn if you don't have a Brady GOAT.

bullshite. Dee Ford didn't lose this game for KC...they lost it with coaching.

Came out 100% flat (0 first half points )
Horrendous defensive coordinator/scheme
Ineptitude on 3rd downs defensively.

It should never have come down to Dee Ford being offsides. The Chiefs coaching staff dug their own grave.

He’s spent his entire career in the NFL equivalent of the Sun Belt conference. When half your games every year are scrimmages you get chances to rest players and have live practices with little chance of losing.

Easy. His HC who’s going to his 12th Super Bowl.

Belichick started Drew Bledsoe over Brady and was average as hell

Watching people attempt to discredit Brady as tGoat is hilarious

I'd say it's the sports equivalent of flat-earthers

Belichick had another HC job, with Nick Saban at DC, and got fired for poor performance

It’s okay to leave all that money on the table when your wife makes more than you.

He started 14 games and threw 18 TDs and 12 INTs and I think 1 TD in the entire playoffs.

What are you even talking about?
