It’s looking like Brady really is retiring.
Words don’t do him justice. The Patriots QB when I started watching was Hugh Millen and the team was a joke. Things got better in the Bledsoe era, but in the end still the never won anything Patsies. Then came the Brady era and for 20 years the team was transformed from joke to one the elite franchises in NFL history. To this Pats fan it’s still hard to believe that the NEP own 6 Lombardi trophies. Tom is to thank for most of it and it was a privilege to watch him for 2 decades become the greatest to do it.

I'm taking this as an absolute win. After Brady broke my heart twice, we beat that man into retirement. Ruined his fairytale ending.
He doesn't care one bit. He has a life and had a career anyone would trade for. But I care.
Adios amigo.
Also: Brady was I think 29-10 in TB including playoffs. 0-3 against us.

By retiring now he also gets to overshadow Roethlisberger's HOF induction. Competitive until the very end; that's the Tom Brady I know.

Not sure what’s up actually up with Brady, but good riddance if he’s retiring.

I know they just beat them couple weeks ago but I can't believe that many football people have picked Cincy. I hope I'm wrong but I can't see them being close at the end.

Protecting Burrow could be the difference for them keeping it close. If their offensive is clicking, they could both hit 30 points, or at least high 20s. I expect KC to be in the 30s the way their offensive is clicking again.

Tony Romo knows as much about Halo as he does about playoff football

A 3rd and goal at the 15 and you run a half asked screen to the rb. That's a surrender call. Halfway through the 3rd quarter. They have to force the ball to Chase a little.

I can't believe they pulled it off. I mean, I put my money on them last week and this week, but still. You expect them to Bungal.

Congrats to any Bengal fans here it’s been a long time and this is a fun team to watch.
This once again shows how ridiculous the talk of Mahomes surpassing Brady in quick succession last February was. Winning the Super Bowl is exceptionally hard and so is just getting to the game.

What a turnaround for Cincy. What a game. Hopefully the 49ers and Rams is just as good.

Nobody else is winning 7 rings as a player, let alone starting qb for a very long time. But the debate has never been just rings. Stats count for a lot too. Wins, yards, tds...I'd expect mahomes to be well ahead of Tom's current records if he plays anywhere near the same amount of years.

The debate earlier this year focused on rings though in the media run up to the SB. I have no doubt that health permitting Mahomes will be in striking distance for many counting stats. I will say though I doubt Mahomes is playing at 44. In that regard Brady is probably an extreme outlier.

Never bought much into the narrative that KC was/is this unstoppable juggernaut. Seems very dependent on everything hitting at 100. If someone really is unbeatable, the game is rigged or the team is cheating something stoopid.

That was a cheap shot by Warner. About what I'd expect.

Where have I seen this one before? Absolutely dominate the first half, leave a lot of points off the board, and that usually ends super well.

Why not run the qb sneak or 3rd? That's not a 4th down at midfield, down in the 2nd half of a do or die game type of call. I hate Sean McVay.
