Tom Brady and the New England Patriots are on to Kansas City and an AFC Championship Game title with the Chiefs, but we would be remiss if we didn’t take a minute to note all of the postseason records the 41-year-old quarterback now holds.
Following the Patriots’ 41-28 win over the Los Angeles Chargers on Sunday at Gillette Stadium, Brady now has won 28 of the 38 playoff games he’s started, ranking first in both categories. To put that in context, Peyton Manning started 27 playoff games in his career, which ranks second all time.
