When one thinks about Tom Brady and Matt Ryan, chances are the first thing that immediately comes to mind is their high-profile clash in Super Bowl 51.
Arguably the greatest championship game in the history of the sport, the Patriots infamously stormed back from a 28-3 third quarter deficit to force overtime for the first time in Super Bowl history. They then went on to beat the Falcons, of course, cementing the franchise’s legacy atop the pantheon of NFL organizations.
While Brady came out the victor that day and Ryan was the gracious loser, the two quarterbacks have continued to dominate their sport in the ensuing years, with each being routinely listed among the top 10 at the position every new season.
