NFL 2018
It was a breathtakingly good game, too. The only way the Pats were going to win was by keeping Mahomes from getting his hands on the ball in overtime. Brady (with some ridiculous help from Edelman and Gronkowski with their clutch catches on the final drive and winning the overtime toss) did exactly that.

Brady the GOAT is off to his 18756th super bowl appearance
They went to arrowhead and took the favourite with there young gun Mahomes
There now up against Goff and the Rams who were very lucky to get past Bree's and the saints after one of the worst no calls in NFL history on a 3rd and 10 which would have put them inside the red zone
4th February Brady looks to add to his already imposing resume the likes of which won't be seen again
How can you tip against the GOAT and co

Ok that's the YouTube link
My understanding there isn't a rule in place to review such missed calls (compared to just about every other rule that can be reviewed in the game)
This is a game that's played over 4x 15 minute quarters that takes around 2.5 hours to complete so there's more stoppages than actual game time really
Hope the video helps explain it better than me K

Brady's 9th super bowl appearance
3rd in a row and 4th in 5 years
He's says he will play another 4 seasons so on the current rate would mean around 2-3 more Super Bowls
I've done the numbers and Rodgers would have to play injury free until his 747th birthday to reach the same stats Brady will reach by 45
Sort of puts it into prospective how far in front of every other QB past and present he is
Be it the system or the player or a combination of both its a record that will never be matched
On a side not Brady isn't in the top 10 paid QB's in the game
The highest 4 paid QB's didn't make divisional play offs
Says something about a player willing to sacrifice some of his own money to keep guys around him to achieve success
In the high paid US system this is a rare commodity

Update:
Roger Goodell: "We will look again at instant replay. It does not cover judgment calls, this was a judgment call.
"The other complication is that it was a no-call and there has not been support to date about having a replay official or somebody in New York throw a [penalty] flag when there is no flag.
"They have not voted for that in the past. It doesn't mean that we won't, it's something that we are going to put to the competition committee and see if there is an answer to that."

K
The NFL is a different beast really to how we understand sport
Private ownership on the majority of teams by rich individuals governs how they handle things
There are some teams who the owners use it as a vessel to make more money spending the absolute minimum they can and receiving maximum revenue
The NFL owners hand pick the commissioner and basically he is there public voice
They keep the players and players union under the thumb as much as possible
The Nextel broadcast deal is ready to be negotiated and already the game is getting set for lock outs again
The owners will lock the players out denying them a living unless they agree to the terms the owners want
See the owners actually save money by not having the players play
There will be a fight and the owners will want to players union to agree to terms that will limit any former players on making further claims against the league for drug abuse like they did with the head trauma issue
These owners are powerful men and have in the past used congress to press home there rules
Unlike here were players have decent rights the NFL view them as pawns to make money and they are very replaceable

Pats win there 6th super bowl in the Brady era
He's now the undisputed GOAT
Belichick in his presser says
Brady isn't just the greatest QB of all time he's the greatest player the game has seen period. This franchise wouldn't have won 6 Super Bowls without him
He's been the most valuable player in each and every game we played through this post season
We the coaches devise a plan but a plan is no good without the players to make it happen and Brady is man that leads that on the field
I've been lucky to be on this ride with him and enjoy the success along side him that he's brought to this franchise
Robert Kraft the owner of the Pats says
To has been like a son to me. He has done everything in the game and then some. There can never be a argument that he's the greatest player in NFL history. Earlier this year you guys in the press said I made a bad decision backing Tom over Bill's plan to move on from him with jimmy but I knew Tom would deliver us the prize again as he had 5 times previously
When I made the decision to step in and ensure Tom was our QB going forward I knew it may cost be a coach and GM but that was the risk I was prepared to take. Bill understood my position and told him at the time he was free to go if he couldn't live with my decision. To his credit he stayed and now Tom has delivered him and our team another super bowl
We couldn't be more happy with the outcome

K the owners of NFL teams can be different beasts
Robert Kraft is a good owner he's built a great franchise that was once before he owned it was considered the worst franchise in American sport
Jerry jones who owns the Dallas Cowboys has been known to call the coach during a break and give them coaching advice
He's also been known to wander the sidelines during games and speak to players directly
What Kraft did was stop what he believed would hurt his brand
The coach who is also the GM is forward planning and had a opinion that Brady was cooked. The owner didn't believe it
Brady was out suspended for 4 games and they went 3-1 and the coach seemed to think that was enough evidence that he had a replacement ready to go
The owner stepped in traded away the other QB who is know at San Fransisco on a long term mega deal and out with a ACL
Since he left the Pats he's 6-9 hardly the state of the next big thing
Brady is 41 and the coach may have been right history says no QB plays on successfully into there 40's it has never happened
Brady however is a different kettle of fish
He threw for 270 yards yesterday more yards than the entire Rams team gained in total offence for the game (they had averaged over 430 yards of offence per game during the season)
The Rams had 2 of the best defensive players in the game but still Brady found a way to get the throws away on time and accurately
Eddlemam who won the MVP had 14 catches for 141 yards and every pass was exactly where it needed to be for him to catch
Bray has now played in 17% of all Super Bowls played in history
He has more post season wins (30) than any other franchise
His records are too many to mention but there is no doubt in anyone's mind he's the GOAT every commentator and expert has stated such
If struggling franchises like the packers could find a quarter back with half as much talent of Brady they might finally have success

Bledsoe? Fine player, back when BB was just a defensive assistant to Bill Parcells at the Pats and the halftime entertainment could sing and play:

The game was OK, too. The Minister of Defense. And the actual GOAT:
