Tom Brady just won his fifth Super Bowl and he did it with yet another game-winning drive in the fourth quarter or overtime. Amazingly, the 34-28 victory was the largest margin in any of Brady’s Super Bowl wins with the Patriots.
Tom Brady has now led 5 game-winning drives in the Super Bowl
Dan Powers-USA TODAY Sports
To win five of seven Super Bowls is incredible enough, but to do them all with late-game heroics takes it to another level.
Brady won his first Super Bowl in 2002 with a late drive to set up a game-winning field goal as the clock ran out. Two years later, he added a second ring with another drive to set up a game-winning kick with four seconds left.
His third game-winning drive wasn’t quite as suspenseful, but Brady did march the Patriots down the field in the fourth quarter to break a 14-14 tie against Philadelphia in 2005.
In 2015, Brady brought the Patriots down the field to take a lead on Seattle with two minutes to play. Then came this year when he converted a game-tying TD with seconds to play, then got the ball in overtime and led New England to a victory.
Oh, and Brady was a part of potential game-winning drives in both of New England’s Super Bowl losses, only to have the defense give up the lead late in the game.
