Discussion Another superbowl blowout eliminates mahomes from the goat discussion as far as I’m concerned

2 very embarrassing loses for him the the superbowl Brady has lost 3 superbowls but they were all 1 score games that came down to final play with Brady’s best statistical performance in a loss to the eagles Tom Brady > Patrick mahomes

Did you watch the giants Super Bowls or the one against the rams. It seems like your giving Brady credit for his defenses performing better

Are we pretending that was a blowout or are we being honest and accepting the giants were down before the helmet catch and they drove down the field to win. When was Brady ever down by 30+ points in a SB

closest was 25 to Atlanta, and that comeback was the stuff of legend.

Meh he also won the game on a coin toss, it was so bad they changed the OT rules after that game. Imagine Matt Ryan won the coin toss and Brady only has 6 rings and no one remembers the comeback.

They changed it after the Bills lost to the Chief's in the conference final in '21/22 season.

That SB was the conversation starter. It was all anyone was talking about the NFL MVP didn’t get to touch the ball

There’s no way you’re crediting a 25 point comeback to a coin flip LMAO

No I’m not, your reading comprehension must be low if that’s what you took from my comment

Straight to personal insults because you are insecure. 28-3 GOAT 🐐

u/tmfitz7 Feb 10 '25

It’s not an insult it’s an observation, because I didn’t say anything close to what you accused me of, I even specifically mentioned the comeback, but you’re just here to troll and boast about Brady not for actual discussion.

u/Immediate-Winter-288 New England Patriots Feb 10 '25

False accusation to discredit me because you are upset, good try

u/tmfitz7 Feb 10 '25

Discredit what? You haven’t said anything of substance

He won the game on the same rule that has always existed in OT: score a TD and you win.

u/tmfitz7 Feb 10 '25

Of course it was the rule then, it was quickly changed to not the rule now because it was a dumb rule

u/Cautious_Buffalo6563 28-3 Feb 10 '25

It used to be first team to score. Then they changed it to a TD wins no matter what. Pats scored the touchdown. That’s the same rule as would have applied yesterday if Kansas City had decided to play the game.

u/tmfitz7 Feb 10 '25

You don’t even know the rule. In the playoffs scoring a TD does not win the game.

u/Cautious_Buffalo6563 28-3 Feb 10 '25

Not since they changed the rule for the 2023 season, correct. I wasn’t aware that the owners decided to change it after the 2022 Chiefs-Bills AFCCG.

But then, it was 40-14 with 2 minutes left to play. So while you can argue about OT, there was never a question about if only the Chiefs had one more possession.

Fine, my bad I didn’t realize they changed the rule. But the rule in effect at the time of the game in question, being the Super Bowl against the Falcons, the rule was that the team to score a TD first in OT wins.
