Played for LA his entire career. His brother, Phil, also played for the Rams.

He was also an actor, an announcer, and an all around nice guy.

But he's still one of the top-tier QBs in the league. Mahomes and Brees surpassed him this season, but who else? Not many.

And since he sucks so bad, he's going to have to pack his bags for the SuperBowl. Again. It sure is tough to "suck."

But there is no denying his incredible success on the field. Best QB in NFL history, bar none.

I mean, if you asked the question: "In the playoffs, which QB would you choose to lead or team or trust to start a game-winning drive while trailing," the answer has to be Brady.
