An argument can be made that Tom Brady and Aaron Rodgers are the top two regular-season quarterbacks in NFL history. They have combined for five NFL MVP Awards – Peyton Manning won five by himself, so he certainly has an argument – and both will be first-ballot, unanimous Hall of Famers five years after they retire.
One big difference in the careers of Brady and Rodgers is regarding the Super Bowl. Brady has reached the game a whopping nine times and won it a record six. Rodgers is 1-0 in the game. It’s almost amazing the two legends never played in a Super Bowl and they apparently never will with Brady now in the NFC.
When the Green Bay Packers visit the Tampa Bay Buccaneers on Sunday at 4:25 p.m. ET in Week 6, it may be the last time Rodgers and Brady face off barring a 2020 postseason matchup. They have split two regular-season meetings all-time. Brady is a very rare home underdog at +2.5 and the Bucs overall are 1-6-1 ATS in their past eight as dogs.
