I went to this game when I was 12 with my pops. I was bummed Bledsoe was out and this Brady guy was playing…needless to say Tommy won me over that day and the rest is history!
Can he do it at 43 against mahomes? Imagine if he wins this one id just retire sit the next year as the gm or something theres no topping it but knowing him he would try again one more time i think he has a 2 year deal with the bucs. Mahomes is a killer though on that field. Bucs defense really going to need to step up here and keep.playing top level
This game was the first Pats game I was ever at. Half way through the 4th, the stadium was clearing out as so many fans expected the Pats to lose. There was no way I was leaving. The comeback was Amazing at that time but now, it was just vintage Brady. This game set them on the course to their first SB win.
Tom Brady looks exactly the same today as he did back then. I used to hate the Patriots, HATED them, but after all these years of wahtching Tom Brady excel in every aspect of his game, I became a Tom Brady fan. G.O.A.T. 🐐
This game WAS THE MOMENT that I knew that Tom Brady (in only his 3rd NFL start) was something very, very special, and that the 2001 Patriots (only 5-11 the previous year, and 0-2 under Bledsoe) would NOW be a truly competitive Team, that was never out of any game. The magic showed right there on that day.
@@nickhalden9220 I mean Parcels second super bowl was almost entirely won by Belichicks defense holding the 49ers to 13 points in the nfc title game and then his masterpiece against the bills in the super bowl. They put his game plan in the hall of fame not Parcels
If you want to watch some early Brady, watch is first match against Peyton Manning. I think it was his second start, Peyton came into Foxboro favored by 14, and Brady blew him away. He had the magic from the beginning, players ball when they know you have a QB that will keep you in the game.
I have seen that game, yes, but I think the Patriots won that one just by a combination of turnovers, a strong running game, and a whole lot of good luck. I don’t deny Brady is the GOAT, but I’m just saying this game against the Chargers was the first time that he truly led a team to victory. In his very first win, over the Colts, I think he was really in the passenger’s seat, while the rest of the team - along with some lucky breaks - won the game FOR him.
I worked at Qualcomm Stadium the next year when The Patriots played the Chargers. Bree's was QBing the Chargers. If you told me the 2 QB's that day would play another 18 plus years and they were HOFers I would have bet everything against it.
Thats an unbelievable stat...really at this point what else does he have to prove? How can anyone say he isn't the goat? There's no legitimate argument
@@leakman1208 brady has the highest iq of all Qbs he never makes mistakes in big moments thats something most “talented” Qbs cant do which is why he is the greatest & its no debate 6 super bowl wins & six game winning drives in all of those 6 wins😂😂
Nobody would take a talented qb before tom. You give any owner the choice of 15 years with Tom, or the"talented" qb you'd take an it's the guy who's going to win games, that's Tom. I'd take the guy that's gonna devote his time pouring through film and building rapport with receiver's than say 8 years with lamar jackson at a high level. Who probably won't win a superbowl if I'm just being honest.
Brady did not lose any Super Bowls. In the three appearances where they lost: In each game Tom Brady had the Team ahead in the final minutes of the 4th Quarter. But Bill Belichick's Defense blew those games in the finals minutes. Against the Eagles, Brady even threw for a Super Bowl record of 505 yards. Brady never lose those games. His record should rightfully be 10 - 0 on the merits of his performance.
I was at this game. I was sitting with a friend in the southern end zone facing the winning drive. We were down by ten and people were leaving. I was yelling: where are you all going? Cowards? Needless to say we came back and won the game and everyone left said good call! I knew it was the start of something very special. I just couldn’t imagine how special or a run it would turn out to be. This was also a year before Rodney joined us.
You can tell by which CBS crew was calling the game that this game was played in another era before it became common practice to assign top crews to call Pats' games.
Tommi gun Brady will go down as probably the #1qb in the game ever to career in NFL when he's finished. Some lick helps too. I'm 68 and never been a Patriots fan. Brady made me Love Brady wish he'd been a Ram. He's always made any game he's in exciting. I feel he'll make another ring in Tampa cuz he feels for the game. A true champ for real
I'm 68 also.... been watching Pats since Babe Parreli... Brady has been a highlight film since day 1....amazing.. and he's still playing.... He's a jewel of a person too....A superstar in every aspect of life... I'll be rooting for Tampa toooooo
It is nice to see long forgotten Patriot receivers (except by long time Patriot fans). If guys like Troy Brown, David Patten, and maybe even Jerome Wiggins had played longer with Brady, they may be in the NFL Hall of Fame. For a brief moment in time they were clutch, something they will be proud of for the rest of their lives. Who doesn't remember Wiggins' crucial kneeling catch in the snow on the January 2002 night.
9:40 - 2001 - Announcer - They beat Doug Flutie and San Diego in Foxborough. Are you kidding me? 2002 to 2019 - Announcer - They beat Tom Brady in Foxborough. Are you kdding me?
Tom Brady was the best quarterback in New England and I hope that Tom Brady would do good in Tampa Bay!!! I ❤ TB 12!!! I'm going to miss him playing for the New England Patriots!!! I'm going to like him better in Tampa Bay playing for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers!!!
Foitage made me think this guy should be one of those legends we can only talk about by now, someone kids don't know. But no! he still there leading his squad and collecting rings.
I was at this game and the guys I was with insisted on leaving early to beat traffic once the Chargers went up by 10... Still a little salty 20 years later
Just gotta love um. Everyone had it wrong diden they. Paid all that money. And they all look like fools. Still to this day. You can't look into some ones HEART Tommy is all HEART
Not say Brady isn't good but we all gotta admit, a ton of them big game winning drives have seemed over till a late flag comes in on what was 4th down or 3rd down now making it 4th and a country mile , then a ref throws a flag and suddenly its first down again. Its like unlimited lives on super Mario Brothers where you keep getting a do over till you win.
I watched that game on tv in a bar in NY and told everyone........"I bet he plays for Tampa Bay one day"!! They said I was F'n nuts!! YEAH!!........well whos F'n NUTS NOW!!!???
Remember the good old days where they played the Gary Glitter Rock n' Roll song (the HEY song) when the Pats scored? Much better than the Bon Jovi "This is Our House" song.
Because the defense and special teams set him up. Literally the MO of his whole career. He never won a single super unless he was on a team with a top 10 defense
I went to this game when I was 12 with my pops. I was bummed Bledsoe was out and this Brady guy was playing…needless to say Tommy won me over that day and the rest is history!
CBS: "an amazing comeback from 10 points down in the 4th."
Tom Brady: "hold my Superbowl 51"
Down by 10 in the 4th
in SB 49 too
28-3

It’s crazy because no one watching this game saw this as something we would see regularly for the next 20 years.
Indeed. The hope was Bledsoe would heal up fast enough that he’d finish the season and storm the Patriots into the playoffs
“The young Tom Brady.” Man that makes me feel old
What a drive, what a game, what a quarterback!

Bledsoe was fun to watch at his best.

Absolutely no one is still playing football in this vid except Brady. Crazy
Back when tight ends looked more like lineman than receivers
Facts 😂😂😂
Gronk still looks like lineman
Shannon Sharpe looked like a WR back then tho haha

You ever watch nfl top ten ? If not look it up on CZcams because they do 🤣
My son has been a Brady fan his whole life, he was born a month before Brady’s first super bowl

Man I loved Troy brown.
He was an incredible athlete
I love Kevin Faulk dependable !!!
Tom has lost more superbowls than most teams have appearances, and most have rings lol. Im a skins fan, but there is no denying the GOAT.

Troy Brown was so good that year. Big plays all year as a receiver and in the return game.

People forget David Patten but this season he just lit it up. Incredible leaping catches all the time.
He pops off the screen everytime I watch old games
Kind of like Hogan, he had 1 great year too
A young Bill Blechek, Rodey Harrison as a Charger, and Jr. Seau
Got a text from my die hard Green Bay friend after GB lost to Tampa Bay this year , it read,,, "FKKN TOM BRADY" hahahahahaha
Amazing game by the best the GOAT.
Wow a 7 point deficit is definitely a comeback
Pretty weird seeing people at this time just not know who this was yet, surreal
