Did Brady ever rise to Allen's level? After all, he lacked Allen's athleticism and raw talent.
Whatever Brady ever lacked in anything, he also was immeasurably clutch, which puts him in a class of his own. Overall I'm not expecting Allen to rise to Brady's level, but I don't consider that possible for any quarterback, Brady's been so accomplished for so long now that he virtually can't be caught. Maybe Mahomes had he beaten Brady in that ACFCCG and gone onto to win SB 53 or if he had beaten Brady in SB 55 because then Mahomes won be sitting on 2 SB's at age 26 and Brady would be "retired" with 6 SB's. It's over now though, Mahomes has to win 6 more SB's to even get in the conversation, and even still, he can't erase the 0-2 head-to-head with Brady in the postseason. Allen is not winning 7 SB's.
Just for kicks, here's how I see these careers shaking out...
Mahomes - 3 rings, 3 SB MVP's, 3 NFL MVP's
Allen - 2 rings, 2 SB MVP's, 2 NFL MVP's
Jackson - 1 ring, 1 SB MVP, 1 NFL MVP
Herbert - 1 ring, 1 SB MVP, 1 NFL MVP
Watson - 1 ring, 1 SB MVP, 0 NFL MVP
Burrow - 0 rings, 1 NFL MVP
Murray - 0 rings, 1 NFL MVP
Prescott - 1 ring, 1 SB MVP, 0 NFL MVP
Jones - 1 ring (post-Belichick), 0 SB MVP, 0 NFL MVP
Brady - 8 rings, 6 SB MVP's, 3 NFL MVP's
