Tom Brady is known for his competitiveness and his separation to win at all costs, especially against his arch-rivals like Peyton Manning and Drew Brees. Although his rivals have left Brady alone in the gridiron, but his spirit still dominates the league to this day. Yet it was way more fun to watch Brady go up against Brees.

Although Brees has claimed more wins in a head-to-head count, yet the final blow was given by Brady himself. It was just the previous season when the then six time Super Bowl champion was playing in the NFC South division for the first time in his career, and up against him was his arch rival Brees leading the invincible Saints.

Former Buccaneers wide receiver and two time Super Bowl winner LeSean McCoy was telling stories about his time with the Bucs. The conversation turned to the quarterback pretty soon. And that story was the most hilarious anecdote one could ever hear about him.

“Another one, right? This is a funny one,” McCoy said about Brady and Brees. “We were playing the Saints, don’t kill my, Tom. This is a funny one, right? So they beat us twice that year. Beat the sh*t out of us. They sweep us and then we meet in the playoffs. Everyone knows Drew Brees is retiring cause he wasn’t the same, arm wasn’t the same. We beat ’em.”
