He’s a great quarterback but also the luckiest bas*tard in the history of sport. From the ruck rule game, to the Atlanta collapse, to the Seahawks failed goal line pass play, to the worst game of Mahomes career. None of that was foreseeable, and none had anything to do with Brady. Talented opponents suddenly forgot how to play against less than epic defences.
Didn’t watch the game, but Mahomes’ stat line is bizarre, considering the Bucs did nothing on their first two drives and gifted the Chiefs the opportunity to take an early lead. Was Mahomes Bell still rung from his concussion?
You forgot Green Bay's bonehead decision 2 weeks ago to go for the FG on 4th and goal with less that 3 minutes to play
I didn’t watch but my brother said that the bus defense focused on and stymied the qb throughout the gsme
Pressure and stress are presented to every player.
Folks like Tom and President Trump confront adversity and look for ways to succeed, rather than choke like a dog.
A very rare human attribute
You seem to forget that there are 10 other players on the field other than the quarterback.
There is also an entire defensive squad and special teams squad that also suits up for the game.
Each of the instances you listed had primarily to do with great defensive play making by Patriot defensive players. If is was not for Malcom Butler’s great jump on the Seahawk’s QB throw they would have lost that game. If it was not hte fact that the Pats defense completely shut down the Falcon’s offense in the second half, the Pats offense would not have come from behind to win.
Last night, Tampa Bay totally dominated the line of scrimmage on both defense and offense. The Bucs ran the ball down KC throat. This allows for the play action passes that then got major yardage. In addition the Bucs double teamed Hill and Kelce basically taking them out of the game for the most part. They also forced Mahomes to scramble left instead of right making it much more difficult to throw on the run.
DEFENSES WIN CHAMPIONSHIPS. Yes, Brady played a good game. They finally threw the ball to Gronk and Brown.
The real winner of last nights game was the Tampa Bay defense and defensive coaches. They kept the best offense in the league to no touchdowns.
Let me also remind you that the reason Brady won several championships with the Pats(especially the first two) was because the Pats had the best defense in the NFL primarily put together by, dare I say BILL.
The best defense has won the championship just as many times if not more than the best offense. A few examples are: Baltimore Ravens, Tampa Bay’s first win, Denver’s win with Peyton, the Giants wins, the most recent Steelers win, etc.
