Welcome back students since we had yesterday off for the
opening of the football season. We are now back….and our 1st subject
is about a statement made by New England Patriots owner Robert Kraft. In an
interview Mr. Kraft stated that in his opinion his QB Tom Brady is better than
4 time Super Bowl champ and 2 time SB MVP Joe Montana…
When
I 1st read this statement I figured it had to be a typo. Was he on
drugs?? Was he really comparing Tom Brady to Joe??? Was I reading this
correctly?? After having several people re-read the statement to me 4 times
over. I came to the conclusion that I can see how the comparisons can be made.
Tom has had a miraculous career, especially in the postseason. He has reached 5
Super Bowls and he has won 3 Super Bowls and is a 2 time SB MVP. So when It
comes to that leve of stats Joe and Tom have a lot in common. But here is the
one fact that separates the 2 gentlemen. Tom with all his accomplishments has
lost 2 Super Bowl (Both to the Giants). This si a feeling that Joe never experienced.
Joe Montana went to 4 SB’s and won all 4. Basically if he made it there it was
almost guaranteed that he would win it. And in a couple of those SB he literally
put the team on his back and lead them to a win. Tom has done this as well. But
there have been 2 failed attempts at doing this that stand out in his career.
So as impressive as those stats are Tom has two glaring spots on his record
that will forever keep him just a level below Joe no matter how many SB he may
win in his career. And trust me he has some time to win a couple of more. Is
Tom Brady a HOF QB? Oh yeah he is a lock for the Hall. The numbers he has put
up over his career call for that. But can he considered better than Joe
Montana? Unless he can go back and erase 2 SB losses he will never be better
than Joe. So Mr.Kraft I am very happy you love your QB but lets stop with the outrageous
comments and just enjoy the game of football…
So
kids after looking at the facts we see that Robert Kraft wasn’t on drugs. He
was just high on his QB. And as we all know you never get high on your own
supply its dangerous I tell ya. Till next time students…Class is Dismissed…
