Ridiculous Tom Brady facts...

Tom Brady has played 44 Playoff Games. That is more than 21 different franchises, and is tied with the Las Vegas Raiders franchise for the 11th most.
Tom Brady has won 33 Playoff Games. That is more than 28 different franchises, and one more than the San Francisco 49ers franchise, who have the 5th most (32).
Tom Brady has played in 14 Conference Championship Games. That is more than 29 different franchises, and tied with the Dallas Cowboys franchise for the 4th most.
Tom Brady has won 10 Conference Championship Games. That is more than 31 different franchises, and just one less than the New England Patriots franchise, who hold the record with 11.
Tom Brady has won 6 Super Bowls. No franchise has more, and is tied with the New England Patriots and Pittsburgh Steelers for the most. To put it another way, if Tom Brady guides the Bucs to a Super Bowl LV victory, he will have more Super Bowl wins than any other franchise in football.
 
Presuming Kansas City holds on to advance to the Super Bowl (up 23 points with 7:36 left), Patrick Mahomes will improve to 6-1 in the Playoffs. The only opposing QB to defeat Mahomes in the postseason? Tom Brady. : - p

If I was playing Madden on All-Madden and the CPU kicked a field goal down 8 in the NFC Championship with 2 minutes left, I'd assume the game was broken.
 
The real history here- after 54 Super Bowls, which only a handful have not been someone actual home field, but all have been close to an NFL team- this is the first time the host field is in the game.

It's really interesting that the surge of some of the great dome and warm teams have not line up with them hosting.

But seeing the number of fans that have gone to horrible weather outdoor HOCKEY games, they need more SB's outside up here in north. Picture a Feb game on Lambeau Field.

No one wants to go to WI.

Holy crap
 
On February 5, 2020, the Wednesday after last year's Super Bowl, I was sitting in a sports book with some buddies and we were speculating as to whether Brady would be leaving the Patriots (pretty likely), and if so, where he would end up.

For me, it came down to San Diego and Tampa Bay, of the 5 or so teams thought to be likely landing spots.

I took a flier and placed a bet to win the Super Bowl on Tampa Bay, at 35-1.

Now, I just have to figure out when I can get back to a sports book between now and the Super Bowl and get my hedge bet down.
 
KC opens -3; Money line KC -170, TB +150.

Very early last night KC opened at -3.5, but everyone who wanted to bet TB snapped that up, so within an hour or so it had dropped to -3, although the juice was bad. The ML bet opened at -186, but then dropped to -176, and then again to -166 this morning, on the Fan Duel site.

I figured there would be a ton of public money that would love Brady as an underdog. The question is how low can I wait for the ML to drop before getting my ML hedge bet down.
 
Here ya go Amber:

@AdamSchefter: Detroit is dealing QB Matthew Stafford to the Los Angeles Rams in exchange for two future first-round picks, a third-round pick and QB Jared Goff, per sources. Two former No. 1 overall picks trading places in the first blockbuster NFL trade of 2021.
 
I mean I'd consider a Goff-Stafford trade pretty equal so good job Lions.

In terms of having some commitment to your best player, yes. Stafford now has a realistic chance at winning a SB. From this Lion's fan standpoint, good luck Jared. Expectations are once again very very low, instead of just very low.

And I do plan on rooting for the Rams. Stafford put more into this franchise than most would in his position, and I very much appreciate that. The best situation would be Matt winning the SB, but it would be fine if he just got the MVP.

Best part is that the Goff contract is basically a 2 year deal. $27 million this year and $15 million the next. They can cut him in 2023 and they have 5 first round draft picks in the next 3 years. Trying for a true rebuild is better than the desperate attempts to win 9 games and a wild card berth they've tried since Suh and Calvin left and whatever the hell Quinntricia was doing.

If the Lions were smart (and we know they are not)- they would see how the best QB's have developed- 1) a VERY solid offensive line, and 2) a couple of years of learning under a veteran. The Lions have burnt more than one QB career over the last 30 years by picking them in the top 5, and then just putting them out there with the support they are getting.

I hope this is a true rebuild as opposed to the next version of a handful of stars with nobody to help.
 
Stafford was willing to go anywhere except New England. Hah!

Why would any decent quarterback want to go there? They have no offensive weapons to work with, and a head coach whose attitude made it untenable for the greatest QB to ever play the position to play there. And, if they wouldn't pay Brady, who would they be willing to pay?
