Brady has always been great and he has already led his team to six Super Bowl appearances prior to this one. He has also helped the Patriots win four titles. Can he win another one in his seventh appearance?
On the other side of the field, Ryan has been on a tear this season and a lot of sports pundits believe that he should get the NFL's most valuable player (MVP) award. He has been nothing short of spectacular in the regular season as he led the NFL in total quarterback rating (QBR), yards per attempt, and yards per completion. He was also second in the league in yards (4944) and touchdowns (38). Those are eye-popping numbers.
Can the Patriots get their fifth Super Bowl win, or will the Falcons rain on their parade and get their first title?
