That's how a quarterback gets to 100,000 yards. 744 postseason winning percentage is right on par with his. But we reserve the right to make an exception for the greatest winner in NFL history.
They say "quarterback wins" is not a real stat. He's almost always outperformed them, in both the regular season and under the bright lights of the postseason. It's why he's more than 14,000 yards ahead of the second-place quarterback on this list, Drew Brees.īrady, 45, has not only outlasted his peers. "I mean the number, I think, speaks obviously to longevity."īut more than that, it is a statistic that accurately reflects Brady's status as a fixture in the postseason and playoff dominance. "Wow," said Las Vegas Raiders coach Josh McDaniels, Brady's former offensive coordinator in New England. For starters, it highlights his implausible endurance in the game. The 100,000-yard plateau, perhaps more than any other mark Brady has reached, puts the totality of his accomplishments in perspective. It's a mark that adds yet another layer of separation between the achievements of Brady and everyone else who has played the game. Now, more than two decades later, Brady passed the ultimate mark of endurance, a milestone that has never been reached and might never be matched: 100,000 career passing yards (regular season and postseason).īrady reached the 100,000-yard threshold in Week 9 against the Los Angeles Rams with a 15-yard completion to running back Leonard Fournette that led to a 50-yard field goal by kicker Ryan Succop. The pass would go down as the lone completion of Brady's rookie season. They came in the form of a 6-yard pass to tight end Rod Rutledge in garbage time of a Detroit Lions blowout of the New England Patriots. 23, 2000, in a forgettable game during a forgettable season, quarterback Tom Brady recorded the first passing yards of his career.
