Tom Brady's 5 Greatest Rival Qauaerterback

Peyton Manning #18

Indianapolis Colts/Denver Broncos

2-Time Super Bowl Champion (XLI, 50)

5-Time MVP

(2003, 2004, 2008, 2009, 2013)

14-Time Pro Bowler

Top of the pile for Tom Brady's rivals has to be Peyton Manning. They are two of the greatest quarterbacks to play the game and their rivalry will always be the gold standard. They competed together in the AFC as Brady played for the New England Patriots and Manning for the Indianapolis Colts and the Denver Broncos.

Peyton Manning has won five MVP awards and Brady has won three. Both have made it to at least 14 Pro Bowls, and both were selected for the 100th year anniversary team in the NFL. Peyton Manning became the first starting quarterback to win the Super Bowl with two different franchises. The only one who ever managed to equal that record was Tom Brady when he won the Super Bowl with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers last year.

There was a reason Tom Brady attended Peyton Manning's Pro Football Hall of Fame induction. Because if someone pushed Brady to become the best version of himself, it was Peyton Manning.

Drew Brees #9

New Orleans Saints

Super Bowl Champion (XLIV)

13-Time Pro Bowler

In terms of statistics, only one person comes near Tom Brady and that is Drew Brees. When Drew Brees retired last season, he was the leader in passing statistics. He was the first quarterback to reach 80,000 passing yards with 80,358 yards. That accounted for 571 touchdowns. His 279.99 yards per game is the highest among all quarterbacks who have at least 30,000 yards.

Tom Brady now has 84,520 passing yards and 624 touchdowns, but he has done so in more games. His passing yards per game are 265.79 yards per game, much lower than that of Drew Brees.

Aaron Rodgers #12

Green Bay Packers

Super Bowl Champion (XLV)

4-Time MVP

(2011, 2014, 2020, 2021)

10-Time Pro Bowler

In terms of pure quarterbacking talent, people have often questioned whether Tom Brady or Aaron Rodgers is better. Aaron Rodgers is known for making miraculous throws and not giving up many interceptions. His regular-season records in the past few years have made him a perennial favorite for the MVP award

He won the MVP last year and is the presumptive nominee this year as well. If he were to win again, then he would have one more season MVP award than Tom Brady. Additionally, now that Brady is playing with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in the NFC, they always have the potential to meet the Packers and Rodgers enroute to the Super Bowl, which adds to the intrigue. In terms of late career resurgence and competing for personal awards, Aaron Rodgers is definitely one of Tom Brady's top rivals.

Ben Roethlisberger #7

Pittsburgh Steelers

2-Time Super Bowl Champion (XL, XLIII)

6-Time Pro Bowler

In terms of longevity in this era, no one comes close to Tom Brady. The only person who tried to get mighty close was Ben Roethlisberger. He is possibly retiring aged 39 and after playing for 18 seasons. Brady and Roethlisberger played for the two most successful franchises in NFL history, the New England Patriots and the Pittsburgh Steelers, and each contributed to their successes.

Roethlisberger will retire with two Super Bowls if he does so now, and he is a surefire future Hall-of-Famer, where he will certainly join Brady. In terms of clutch performances as well, among compatriots, Roethlisberger alone could pass Brady for game-winning drives, leading the team behind from a deficit to victory with 51 such drives.

Eli Manning #10

New York Giants

2-Time Super Bowl Champion and MVP (XLII, XLVI)

4-Time Pro Bowler

In terms of pure talent, maybe Eli Manning does not come at the top of any list of quarterbacks, but in terms of being Brady's Super Bowl nemesis, he leads the fray. Eli Manning won two Super Bowls, both against the New England Patriots led by Brady. In both cases, the Giants were less favored than the Patriots, and yet in each case the former ended up trumping the latter.

In Super Bowl XLII, the Patriots entered the game as part of a perfect season, and were undefeated coming to the Super Bowl. Eli Manning won the MVP as the Patriots lost 17-14. He repeated the trick again in Super Bowl XLVI as the 9-7 Giants defeated the 13-3 Patriots.

Rob Gronkowski #87

New England Patriots/Tampa Bay Buccaneers

4-Time Super Bowl Champion (XLIX, LI, LIII, LV)

5-Time Pro Bowler

They were the odd couple. Brady was the most serious player in the league, Gronk, well, he wasn’t. But together, they made magic, hooking up 90 times during their careers (we’re assuming Gronkowski is also retiring, he’s said he would never play for another QB.) They were so tight that when Brady went to Tampa Bay, Gronkowski came out of retirement. Yes, Rob, you’re special!
