Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback Tom Brady received high praise early in his young career from one of the most iconic sportscasters in late John Madden. The legendary voice of Madden is well known among players and fans for his eye for the details and in-depth analysis of the games. The former NFL head coach was commentating on the New England Patriots-Pittsburgh Steelers game with co-host Al Michaels on Monday Night Football on Sept. 9, 2002.

It is one of the best examples of the recognition and experience that Madden had about the game, as he compares a young Brady to an NFL legend. While talking about Brady, Madden states, “Tom Brady and his calmness reminds me of Joe Montana. I’m not saying Tom Brady is Joe Montana, but I’m saying the way he gets back there and makes everything look so effortlessly and easy.“Madden was impressed with how Brady could slow down and make the right judgment.

The clip was from Brady‘s third NFL campaign under Patriots head coach Bill Belichick as he was trying to establish himself as the starting QB. It was the season following Brady leading the Patriots to their first Super Bowl. In retrospect, the analysis by the legendary voice of the NFL echoes all the abilities of Montana that Brady will later become famous.

Tom Brady continues to deliver the goods

While the clip is old, Brady remains dominant in the QB position as he continues to put up MVP caliber numbers every season. In 2021, he ended up recording a career-high 5,316 passing yards for 43 TD passes at a 67.3% completion rate. The now Buccaneers QB will enter his 23rd NFL season and looking to rewrite history books once again in 2022.
