This story is going to morph over time where 20 years from now it will be common knowledge that some guy wearing a donut caught a playoff GWTD from Edelman.

In my experience living in an area that is either apathetic towards Brady or outright antagonistic (Tuck Rule still hurts), SB51 was the legacy-defining moment. Maybe some Peyton fans spend a lot of time tying Brady's success to BB and this forum overstates that cacophony due to our closeness to...

I'm mulling ways to normalize winning it all across eras. For example:
If in Graham's day the top two seeds from each conference made the playoffs and had to win 2 playoff games to be champs, how many future QBs did the same? Brady's Pats were a top-2 seed and won 2 playoff games nine times...
