As New England Patriots quarterback Drake Maye continues to push for an MVP award in just his second season in the pros, the Tom Brady comparisons are only going to get louder.
While Maye obviously has mountains to climb before he is even in the same galaxy as Brady from a legacy point of view, even those who had multiple championship runs stop at the feet of Brady are seeing many of the same telltale traits that helped No. 12 hit that exalted tier.
Peyton Manning, who is making his usual media rounds before New England's scheduled duel against the 2-10 New York Giants on Monday Night Football, took the time to heap praise on Maye.
