Tom Brady lost two Super Bowls against the giants, a third to the Eagles and was defeated twice by the Broncos one game less than the Super Bowl. While each of those teams had considerable success against him, Brady said that a former different opponent continues to lose sleep.
The seven -time Campo Champion Marshal of the Super Bowl revealed what team it is while responding to Peyton Manning’s Post on a next meeting of members of the 2006 colts, who defeated Brady’s Patriots in a AFC championship game that was a Instant classic.
“That group still gives me nightmares!” Brady wrote.
New England’s 38-34 defeat against Colts in the AFC ’06 title game can be the most painful bowl of Brady’s career. The Patriots led 21-3 in the first half before the Colts set up a furious return that was limited by a Brady interception with less than 30 seconds.
The 2006 colts presented the second -ranking scoring offensive of the League, directed by Manning, the partner of the Fame Hall Marvin Harrison and the perennial Pro Bowl Reggie Wayne receiver. In defense, the colts were led by the corridor of the Pass of the Hall of Fame Dwight Freeney, the defensive wing All-Pro Robert Mathis and the defensive player of the year of the 2007 NFL Bob Sanders.
The Colts, who had lost to the Patriots in two of the first three of the previous positions, would defeat the Chicago Bears in the Super Bowl of that year. It is sure to say that the Patriots would also have defeated the Bears if they had surpassed the Colts and Manning, who then took the Broncos to a couple of games for the AFC title wins on the Brady Patriots.
Ironically, the loss of the game for the title of the Patriots against the Colts launched what would finally be the most historical loss of Brady’s career.
After the Patriots receptors fell short in large moments against the Colts, the then coach of New England, Bill Belichick, came out that low season and replenished his receiving body with the future exhibited from the Hall of Fame Randy Moss, Twice All-Pro Wes Welker and Speedster Donte Donte ‘Stallworth. Each player contributed significantly to the 2007 Patriots becoming the first team from the 1972 Dolphins to win each of their regular seasonal games.
That team of the Patriots would reach 18-0 before they suffered a historical surprise with the giants in the Super Bowl XLII, a loss that temporarily left Brady and his teammates. In a state of devastation and shock.
“We were crushed,” Brady said in the Apple TV documentary about Patriots dynasty. “I was crushed. That was our history game. That would have been everything … we were as devastated as you could be. There was no dream. There was no dream for a long time.”
Brady was clearly part of some painful losses, but those losses are largely eclipsed due to its unique success. He is the only Super Bowl champion seven times and the only player with five MVP trophies of the Super Bowl. Brady is one of the only two titular quarters to win Super Bowls with multiple franchises, being Manning the first to do so.
But for all the success of Brady, there are apparently some games, and a specific team, which continue to chase it until today.
