Is Tom Brady vs. the Patriots the biggest game in Boston sports history?

FOXBOROUGH, Mass. -- When it comes to the tradition-rich history of Boston sports, where does Tom Brady's return rank?

The legendary quarterback won six Super Bowls with the New England Patriots, then signed as a free agent in March 2020 with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and won a seventh.

Many, but not all, agree Sunday's game between the Brady-led Buccaneers and Bill Belichick-coached Patriots (8:20 p.m. ET, NBC) is at the top of the list.

"This one stands alone," says Boston Globe columnist Dan Shaughnessy, whose first year at the newspaper was 1981.
