Tom Brady has had a full Hall of Fame career in the time since I made the cliff.

What did what a Tom proof Getting this done without Bill Belichick because that was the big story line heading into the season.

This was an enormous legacy game, I tried to say beforehand.

Brady had the most to gain in this in these entire playoffs, and he did it.

He bested Montana, Montana, whose foreign owned Super Bowls 13 touchdowns, No interceptions and then, Oh, but you know, he has Jerry Rice and he, you know he's in a great system.

He goes to Kansas City, takes us to the A F C championship game.

He goes to the NFC, goes to the Bucks and takes him to the Super Bowl by beating Drew Brees and Aaron Rodgers on the road breeze after after losing to Breeze and his team twice.

And Aaron Rodgers is the MVP and he goes on the road and beats them by out playing them.

When it counted, I talked about Aaron Rodgers just now.

He's been amazing when I say he's had a full Hall of Fame career since I made the cliff.

If, from the moment I made the cliff predictions been five seasons, any quarterback who ever lived had a five year career and said, Okay, I'm gonna hang it up and did what Brady just did.

Four Super Bowl appearances playing the way he's played on Lee one season, really, where he wasn't great.

He was on Lee Okay at the last season in in New England, which it does appear now, was because of what everyone's saying lack of weapons because when you gave him weapons, he was great when he needed to be.

He proved that not only is the greatest of all time, but in fact he's been better than Aaron Rodgers, which I never thought was the case.

If you have the requisite arm strength, then in fact, what it turns out, his decision making and leadership are the most important things at the quarterback position.

It was important for him to do it without Belichick.

He is the goat and the boat and everything else want to throw in the whoops.

Was a solid Tweet Hall of Fame career since he made the congratulations.

Bill Belichick with in terms of what Tom Brady has proven, he's proven nothing as it pertains to Bill Belichick.

When we look at Bill Belichick, the greatness of Bill Belichick is a coach.

Tom Brady's ascension in the NFC with this one year going from New England has proved nothing against Bill Belichick.

I would remind everybody one of the biggest reasons Tom Brady wanted out was clearly Bill Belichick wouldn't kiss the ring, but also because he was bereft of talent in New England.

And people were like you were thinking Tom Brady was done, as opposed to appreciating the lack of weapons that he was working with and still managing to get the New England Patriots to the playoffs.

And obviously, the three consecutive Super Bowls in which he want to.

Let's remember that in the end, when it comes down to is just in recent memory, let's recall that you had an opportunity to get a J.

Let's recall that even though we respect the skill set of Sony Michelle because he can't run with the football, no question about that.

We forget that Bill Belichick passed up on Lamar Jackson to get Sony Michelle.

Think about what the New England Patriots would have looked like this year with Lamar Jackson.

Is there a Z, their quarterback instead of Cam Newton?

And so when you look at it from that perspective, it's really highlighted what Tom Brady was working with, what he was working against, what he didn't have available to him, And it also elevated his zester depart because people were writing him often, assuming he was done.

And what he was saying is, No, he ain't gonna come out and say, I don't have much to work with.

He ain't gonna throw his teammates under the bus like that.

But it's clearly how he was feeling and so to be in Tampa right now, heading to the Super Bowl.

And by the way, they did it last night without Antonio Brown.
