Tom Brady is ready to play in his 10th Super Bowl, trying to win his 7th NFLtitle,this time with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. The veteran quarterback has had a unique career and he’s ready to increase his legend next February 6.
He hasn’t gone undefeated in the biggest game of all thanks to two specific players who ruined Brady’s plans in the last 14 years, Eli Manning and Nick Foles. The former has recently spoken about TB12 and how he remembers his Super Bowl duels.
The New York Giants legend beat Brady twice, in 2008 and 2012, preventing the player from going unbeaten in the game before Foles and the Philadelphia Eagles beat him in 2018, in one of the most memorable SBs in recent history.
Eli Manning says Tom Brady hasn’t gotten over his two Super Bowl losses against the Giants
Manning, who retired last season, went 2-0 against Brady in the Super Bowl and he’s made a bold claim about the widely-regarded NFL GOAT recently. For the 2x NFL champion, the two losses against the Giants still hunt Brady, despite having won six rings.
“It’s one of those things, it’s not something I ever say or ever think a lot about,’’ Manning told Paul Schwartz of the New York Post on Tuesday. “I’ve been around Tom numerous times, and I’ve never brought up a Super Bowl or our games versus them. He actually brings it up. It still bothers him a little bit, especially the ’07 one when they had the chance to go down as the greatest team of all time.”
“But I don’t have any bragging rights with Tom,” Manning said. “This is his 10th Super Bowl, and I’m so impressed with his whole career.”
Elisha beat Brady in 2008, ruining the Patriots’ unbeaten season when everybody predicted they were going to win it all. Four years later, they met again and Manning stopped the quarterback, who fought until the last minute of the game to give the victory to his team.
With the Buccaneers, the 43-year-old will try to win his 7th NFL championship when he faces Patrick Mahomes and the Kansas City Chiefs next February 6 at Raymond James Stadium, home of the Bucs.
