His start in the NFL was rocky, but over the years Tom Brady has become American football’s absolute superstar. He won seven titles in 22 years and broke almost all records. The 44-year-old is now stepping down.
In the USA there are some “Goats” so “Greatest of all time”, and Tom Brady almost certainly belongs in the ranks of the greatest athletes of all time. No one has made it to the Super Bowl as many times (ten times) or wins as many times (seven times). He played in the most playoff games (45), made the most touchdown passes in the playoffs (83), and holds countless other NFL records. Now the Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback quits.
Spent first year at the bank
As a result of this commitment and his training diligence, Brady experienced a career that nobody really thought possible for him, because in the 2000 draft he was selected only 199th place. Despite his good performance in college. He spent most of his first year as a professional on the bench. He was considered a “skinny boy who can’t move properly and has a weak arm”
In the 2014-15 Super Bowl, Brady and his New England Patriots made a furious comeback against the Seattle Seahawks. A shadow soon fell over the triumph, however, because the Patriots hadn’t inflated the balls hard enough to gain such an advantage in the semifinals against the Indianapolis Colts. An NFL court sentenced Brady to the so-called “deflategate” and banned him for the first four games of the 2015-16 season, and New England had to pay a million-dollar fine.
Shortly before the start of the 2015/16 season, a court of law reversed the sentence imposed on Tom Brady in “Deflategate“. He was able to celebrate his 161st NFL win with just one team in the season opener against the Pittsburgh Steelers. After 20 very successful years with the New England Patriots, Brady switched to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in 2020, where he immediately won his seventh Super Bowl.
