But none of those matter to Tom Brady. For him, each season has one main goal. Winning the Super Bowl. With 6 wins in 9 appearances so far, Brady knows a thing or two about performing at the biggest stage in the world of football.

This isn’t the first time Brady has been vocal about his teammates not making it to the Pro Bowl. Back in 2012, when he was part of the New England Patriots, Brady sang similar tunes about Brandon Spikes as well.

“You think I play this s–t to go to Pro Bowls? Get it together. Get your head up. We’re trying to win (Super Bowl) rings,” said Brady to Spikes after the latter was disappointed not to get a Pro Bowl call up.

Brady’s records in the NFL are unparalleled. And it’s especially in the postseason where his stats start getting ridiculous. Brady has reached 9 Conference Championship games in the last 10 years and has been to 14 championship games overall.

In terms of postseason wins as well, Brady is in a league of his own with 33 wins. The most by any quarterback in history. Brady’s closest competitor is Joe Montana with 16, who retired in 1994. Before Brady even got his first snap in the league.
