Tom Brady reveals the one NFL team he enjoys beating the most and it’s definitely not the Patriots

The Buccaneers’ savage win over the Patriots on Sunday didn’t just give Tom Brady revenge on his former team, the win also got Brady into a very exclusive club. With the win, Brady is just the fourth quarterback in NFL history to defeat all 32 teams, joining Peyton Manning, Drew Brees and Brett Favre.

Now that Brady has beaten all the teams at least once, Jim Gray had a very interesting question for him on the last episode of “Let’s Go!” podcast that Gray and Brady host together (Seriously, Brady has his own podcast).

On Monday’s show, Gray asked Brady which team was his favorite to beat. Brady could have said the Rams (he beat them twice in the Super Bowl) or the Falcons (he’s 9-0 against Atlanta, including that savage Super Bowl LI win) or even the Bills (he beat them 32 times). ), but no, Brady had a completely different answer.

“Holy cow, that’s a good question,” Brady said via Pro Football Talk. “The team that I would love to beat the most is the Giants, there’s no doubt about that because they really took some off, you know I always joked with Eli [Manning] but, yeah, and I think he likes me talking about it all the time. So coming back, I don’t like losing to these guys, so when we beat them, I love it. “

As you can see, Brady’s answer is THE NEW YORK GIANTS. The answer definitely makes sense and that’s because Brady has a long history with them. Although he has a 5-1 regular season record against the Giants, including a savage Week 17 win in 2007 that pushed the Patriots to 16-0, Brady also has two infamous Super Bowl losses and these defeats seem to eat away at him. time, especially the one that cost New England their unbeaten season.

In 2018, Brady admitted in his documentary “Tom vs. Time” that those two Super Bowl losses would likely stay with him forever.

“I’ll never let go of that discharge. This scar tissue is too deep, it’s too thick,” Brady said.

As for the team Brady least likes to beat, this one is easy: it’s the Patriots.

“The team I like the least to beat is obviously the Patriots,” Brady said. “Again, these are my guys, man. These are the other warriors that I have fought with for so long. I have had a lot of battles over the years with different teams, there is a lot of mutual respect in it. professional sport, but happy to be done with that [on Sunday]. “

The good news for Brady is that there’s a very good chance he won’t have to face the Patriots again in his career, although it will be possible thanks to the new programming formula. Assuming they don’t meet in a Super Bowl, the earliest that could happen again is 2023. If Brady still plays at this point, he would be 46.

The other good news for Brady is that he’s going to get another shot at his favorite team to beat and that’s because the Buccaneers will host the Giants on Monday night in Week 11.
