Weird Stat - Brady's record in games with >=3 INTs: Reg Season = 0-9 / Playoffs = 3-1

[Shockt327]

Is this a negative or a positive (or a fluke)? Because Brady only having 9 of these games -- out of 301 in the reg season -- really makes the 4 times it happened, in just 43 postseason games, look pretty awful. Not to mention, the regular season games happened earlier in Brady's career; where-as playoffs were pretty balanced. However, it's quite an accomplishment that he can overcome it when it matters most, when he normally cannot.

Wow, is that really every single game he's even thrown 3+ INT in? Super impressive for the list to be that short. Literally only 1 in the entire 2010s decade (2 counting the one from the 2009 season in the playoffs).

Defense is a hell of a drug

Just heard that everyone else has a W-L of 17-109 w/ 3+ INTs in the playoffs

His luck might run out if he does it again in the SB.

Then again, the only time he threw a pick in the SB and lost was SB 46. He threw one in SBs 38, 51 (a pick six) and 53 and won, threw two in SB 49 and won.

When should we tell Tom he’s really on The Truman Show?

What helped in the GB game is that every single INT was basically a punt.

Just watched some highlights again and recall GB had a gift INT that they dropped at the end of the first half too. I bet they wish they had that back.

Some of it is defense helping him out, and some of it is circumstantial (throwing picks after having moved downfield and burned clock ends up essentially being a punt, which is less impactful than throwing it on the other side of the field like Roethlisberger did in that Browns game).
