Malik Posted July 27, 2019 Share Posted July 27, 2019 As a starter with the Patriots he is currently 207-60. If he literally spent the next 9 years going 0-16 he would still have an above .500 record by 3 games. This randomly came to mind when I was thinking about how Eli may finish his career below .500 and might even end his career with twice as many losses. Obviously neither has anywhere near full control of their wins and losses. It just blew my mind to think about. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SkippyX Posted July 28, 2019 Share Posted July 28, 2019 Brady has been a starter for 18 years. 72% of those seasons led to the AFCCG 50% of those seasons end on Super Bowl Sunday 33% of those seasons end in a title. Aaron Rodgers has been a starter for 11 years 27% of those seasons led to the NFCCG 9% of those seasons ended on Super Bowl Sunday 9% ended in a title To be closer to Tom Brady he would have to not be Aaron Rodgers. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thebestever6 Posted August 3, 2019 Share Posted August 3, 2019 40 and 10 is the most impressive stat to me in the playoffs. All of those byes, and to still have accumulated 50 postseason games. 3 to 1 ratio is insane. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thomas5737 Posted August 3, 2019 Share Posted August 3, 2019 Otto Graham was 105-17-4 in his 10 year career (played in a championship game all 10 years). 9-3 in the playoffs, obviously many fewer playoff games in that era. Doubt that winning percentage can ever be close to being matched. Baker Mayfield needs to win 99 games versus 10 losses so basically 15-1 in the next 7 seasons to better him. Otto also had a couple passer ratings in the 112 range and a few more close to 100 in an era that it didn't happen. Sorry, back to Brady. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be fair tho, there were only like 10 teams in the league back then, and only a couple of those actually looked competent. Not to take anything away from Graham, he was a man among boys.

Not to take anything away from Graham, he was a man among boys. More like 14 in the NFL at the time, but yeah. They did have to win a 7 team division to make the playoffs which was significantly stronger than the AFCE during Brady's run. Graham held the passer rating record like 50 years before Steve Young beat it. So yeah, he was way ahead of his time. Unitas and Starr had some pretty good passer ratings in that era also, just not quite as good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
