Short introduction
Tom Brady is the most successful quarterback in the history of NFL. He reached Super Bowl 9 times and won it 6 times. Besides this highest value, he set many other records. Since starting his career at NFL in 2000, he has played continuously for the New England Patriots. His marriage to the Gisele Bündchen model also brought him further attention.
Early life
Born in California, Tom Brady often became a guest in the NFL game, especially in the San Franciso 49ers, through his father as a child. That is why the quarterback of 49ers, Joe Montana, became a model for young Tom Brady. However, in high school, he only plays baseball.
It changed in college, where he began playing football, but initially only a reserve player. In the past two years, he is an initial quarterback that set several records, such as most pass and most successful trajectories in one season. The second season he was chosen for the All Star team from a large ten conference. In 1998 Tom Brady and his studies won the Florida Citrus Bowl and in 1999 Orange Bowl.
The following season he was recruited by New England Patriots, but only in 13th place in the draft. So he was originally only No. 4 quarterback. But it changed in the first year of his work as a professional NFL, which marked the start of a career that had never happened before.
Career
In the second season with the New England patriots, he became the initial quarterback due to an injury to the first quarterback. After initially moderate shows, the team only lost another game this season with Tom Brady. That’s why his team moved to the 2001 Super Bowl, which Tom Brady, who suffered minor injuries in the semifinals, won directly in his first full season.
Someone cannot guess that more than these titles will follow. At first, the following season, the playoff step failed to win the Super Bowl again in 2003. In 2004 he even defended his title, the event was relatively rare in the NFL.
In 2005 Denver Broncos failed in the playoffs, making Tom Brady his fourth playoff defeat in his fourth year as the initial quarterback.
In 2006 they failed again in the playoffs, Tom Brady’s following year made a “perfect season” in the regular season with a score of 16: 0, but then lost at the Super Bowl with 14:17 against the New York Giants.
In 2008, he injured himself more seriously for the first time, right in the first match of the season, where he could no longer play. However, in the following season, he convinced again with the old quality and new records. He is the first player in the history of NFL to throw five touchdown tickets in just a quarter. He then got 358 throws without interception, which was also a note.
By Super Bowl 2020, which he didn’t reach, he had made 9 finals. His popularity did not subside various scandals around his team. So he is one of the protagonists of what is called “Deflution” when his team illegally plays with air too little on the ball. Recently, he won the Super Bowl in 2019 at the age of 41 years.
Career highlights
The one-time achievement won the Super Bowl six times as a quarterback is the absolute peak of this career, which is not even over. Nine appearances at the Super Bowl are also notes, but all of its achievements for almost two decades must be considered attractive. In this case, a single spotlight in Tom Brady’s career could hardly be made.
There are also a number of personal awards. So Tom Brady was twice (2004 and 2007) a sportsman this year from sports news. He was once a men’s athlete this year (2004), 4x MVP from the Super Bowl and was finally chosen to the 2000s NFL decade team.
Amazing facts
In 2005, he appeared in a series of “Simpsons” as himself. He also has further appearance in the TV series.
He was the father of two with his wife Gisele Bündchen, and he had children with actress Bridget Moynahan.
Since 2015 he has sold its own merchandising with the name “TB12”.
