While it must be acknowledged that Brady’s Super Bowl record with the Patriots was simply amazing. Brady’s postseason performances with the Patriots were nearly as stunning in his last years with the team. In his last years, he won three Super Bowls in five years. In fact, the Patriots would have been the only team in history to win three consecutive Super Bowls only if Brady had not succumbed to the Philadelphia Eagles in Super Bowl LII.

Tom Brady quarterback reveals why “it’s so hard” to win the Lombardi Trophy consecutively

Tom Brady has a simple explanation as to why more teams dont end up winning the Lombardi Trophy consecutively. Speaking on his “Let’s Go” podcast, the quarterback revealed the reason to be a mix of statistics and competition.

Well, the number one [reason] it’s so hard to repeat is that it’s hard to win one Super Bowl,” Brady said. “There’s one of 32, and being second is the same as being 32nd. In the end, there’s one team that everyone’s going to remember from every season. So to win two of those back-to-back is extremely difficult.”

Currently, just seven teams have ever won the Super Bowl in consecutive years. Tom Brady and the Buccaneers will try to make it eight in February, joining the Packers, Dolphins, Steelers, 49ers, Cowboys, Broncos, and Brady’s Patriots as the only teams to do so. Will Brady & co be able to do it? Let us know!
