The All-Brady Team: Tom Brady’s Top Teammates in his 22-Year Career

@allen stahl He has had his fair share of missed opportunities for sure but he’s also one of the unluckiest QBs in playoff history, when he has a subpar postseason game he doesn’t get bailed out like Brady does. Also come on, everybody will tell you that Rodgers’s highlights blow Brady’s out of the water

🐐🐐🐐🐐🐐🏈🏈🏈🏈🏈

@Finn McKenty Slander Account highlights don’t matter. Who’s a more fun player to watch, Dr. J or Tim Duncan? Obviously Dr. J. But who’s the better player all time, with consistency, success in the playoffs, and credentials? Tim Duncan EASILY

Brady overrated, manning is tied with him, 5 MVPs and same playoff passer rating despite playing far tougher defenses. Brady’s longevity evens them up

I loved him in the American team documtaries

Insanity

Clearly this was not made by the Pats channel…mindboggling.

Lol Brady followed like Logan Mankins drafted from the same team & spent final 2 Season with same team.

I mean, is there any defense on earth that could stop Moss, Gronk, Evans, and Edelman at the same time, or an offensive line that wouldn’t get embarrassed by Wilfork/Suh/Seymour/Jones?

It didn’t matter really, they always had excellent coaching and work ethic

@RUSSBOSKI88 Exactly. They didn’t need superstar skill players because the offensive line controlled the trenches. They would save money on RB’s and receivers (who usually played well on cheap contracts) and paid big money to top-end corners and secondary players

@Brendon Buffaloe What? The latter half of Brady’s career was defined by having a superstar TE, and in one of the best seasons of his career he had a superstar WR.

Brady publicly complained about him not having help in the skill positions.

@M P Yeah I’m aware he always had good receivers, but they didn’t draft guys like Ja’Marr Chase in the top 5. Brady got an elite OL and great receivers instead of Elite receivers and an average OL. Because of his immobility, that was what had to be done.

@Kuya Arbee Lol, football is team sport bro. Moss did his part against the Giants. Not his fault the defense allowed the helmet catch to happen. Hightower is no where near Moss.

I still remember Hightower was a massive part of that comeback vs. the Falcons in the Superbowl, like huge part of it. Those moments stand out in my mind a lot

@Greysen Gagne I think it’s very hard comparing offensive players and defensive players and saying “these guys did their job so well”, because offensive players you can see things much easier than defense a lot of the time. I would say, Hightower for sure deserves to be in the conversation because Brady wouldn’t have 2 super bowls without him arguably. Regardless of how he did in the regular season those years. And I also agree Moss deserves to be here because he’s also great. I myself think Hightower could fit in here or at least be an honorable mention as well though.
On being Brady’s #1 teammate I think Brady himself would tell you that’s Gronk. Weather that’s true to us or not, doesn’t really matter, it’s clear Gronk was his #1 bud and teammate on both Patriots and Buccaneers. Even if Moss put up some huge numbers with Brady.

@Adam Block Definitely bro

I agree, I think hightower did more than Mayo, and bruschi should definitely be here

agreed and its not close.

NOPE

i love teddy and donte but jerod mayo was the best inside linebacker the pats have ever has.

No. I love both. But Mayo was the leader when the Pats defense was one of the worst in the league… Mayo was a sideline to sideline field general. Mayo was a humble savage

@Ian DC I agree 100% Mayo was a true difference maker. a field general

The 2015 afc championship collapse disqualified him. Great guy. But he was getting abused all day by Demarcus ware

@clint fowler while you are right, ive heard that the center was tipping the snap. Although I have a hard time believing that such a brilliant QB and coaching staff would allow that for.too long.

♥️

@Oleg Igoverich he’s a slot guy. You need outside receivers. Look what he did with cooks and moss. 2 MVPS

@Oleg Igoverich OMG really your going with Wes Welker ? He had 50 TD’s & 9900 yards receiving in 11 years. Sorry but those are shitty Stats & definitely not a HOF stats !!!!

@Oleg Igoverich Randy Moss had 156 TD’s & 15600 receiving yards & a HOFamer !!!!

@Gus espe welker has 5 pro bowls and 2 all pros, that’s arguably hall of fame material. Anyway statistically Brady’s receivers had a massive impact on his performance unlike mannings receivers.

@Gus espe that’s 900 yards a year average for a SLOT.

@User Name Your memory doesn’t serve you correctly. 🙂 He made the pro-bowl one of those years and had 6 sacks, 13 QB hits, and 9 tackles for a loss in only 12 games the other – he was in the opponents backfield a lot. But as the OP said – those plays in the Super Bowls. Pats most likely do not win those games without his plays.

@User Name No, no, no – it’s about those particular years. “A single pro bowl” is some sort of career assessment. You said you didn’t think he did much in the regular season of the years he made those crucial plays in the super bowl. And even if we don’t think the pro bowl means that much anymore, you can’t just dismiss his regular season.

And if we want to jump to the overall topic – Jarod Mayo was never the player Hightower was, or Bruschi. He was a good solid linebacker. The other two were better and made serious plays when it mattered. Name one for Mayo. And by the way – 6 sacks for a middle linebacker is a lot, plus with all that time in the backfield. Go look up HOF middle linebackers like Urlacher, Lewis, …

@User Name well either you are correct or Belichick, Kraft and the Patriots organization are right because if my memory serves me correct Dont’a was thought so highly of he was made the highest paid defensive player in Patriots history back in 2017 on a 4 year contract and The Pats just signed him last season for 2 more years at $10 million a season once again making him the highest paid defensive player on the team.Yep according to you he’s not very good but funny how cheapskate Belichick is willing to toss 60 million away in the last 7 years to keep him around 😋

@User Name You basing one’s credentials and importance to a team off of how many Pro Bowls a player has been too ~ no offense man but this football thing just isn’t working out for you. (And if you want one of 50 examples) Hightower is single reason opposing teams can’t run a sweep or check down to the strong side because Hightower has always shut that play down instantly. Does it remotely resonate with you how effective a player is when he can shut down 2 crucial plays off of an opposing teams play book? Care for 49 more examples?

*WAITS*

Rob ninkovich

@Johnny – Agree 100%

IDK after that dropped catch in Super Bowl 46 Welker deserves to not be on the team.

Matthew Slater. Special teams and an incredible Captain

On defense I’d also include Ninkovich, Aqib Talib and Malcom Butler

Yup. Best WR draft pick since Deon Branch and only last one year

Fax

Yea clearly

Teddy Forsure but believe me bro. Jerod mayo was that dude.

Totally agree!! Mayo was a beast but he was third. I would have went Hightower, Bruschi, Mayo. Probably would have left Devin White out because it was only two years with Brady.

@Coach Mix yes, get devin White out of here.

Mayo was average.

Can’t figure out why Wes Welker is not on this list. Watched to see where he would be .
Does no one remember how good they were together.
Glad you Do.

@Cory Vereyken him and Edelman are both slot guys, its one or the other really

Maybe if he didn’t drop a wide open pass on the Super Bowl

Should have been those 3 and willie.

The defense is all kinds of messed up

Asante Samuel dropped that int though

And Kevin Faulk!!!

Laurence Marmot was good too.
