Nick Wright went on a lengthy Tom Brady-appreciation rant on the latest segment of FOX Sports’ First Things First.

“Brady is at the top of the mountain top, at the top of the mountain top. You guys understand what I’m saying? Brady is the unquestioned most accomplished, greatest quarterback ever.

“And I think right now if you did some type of poll, who’s the greatest football player ever? I don’t know if Brady would get a majority, but I bet he’d get a plurality over Jerry Rice,” Wright said.

The outspoken analyst further spoke about how Aaron Rodgers will be under immense pressure to prove his doubters wrong. This is just his second Super Bowl appearance since he last won Lombardi in 2011.

He said, “Aaron Rodgers needs another Super Bowl appearance. He can’t go a decade without it. And so I think there is it to me, there’s a very simple question. Rogers has more to gain than anyone remaining except for Josh Allen.”

Coach Matt LaFleur’s Packers will consider themselves as favorites heading into this tie. Although they have been beaten once by the Bucs earlier this season, they look like a team possessed based on recent wins.
