Gonna take a contrarian approach just for the sake of keeping it interesting. Doesn't this basically guarantee that it will happen?
Sure currently there are contenders all over the NFL landscape, even with parity and growing consistency across NFL teams. A QB could match Brady's accomplishments in 12 years or so if they got dropped on a contending team, grow into a great player, then take a team first approach for a large portion of their career.
Next, NFL voodoo works in funny ways. Has he made remarks similar to this previously? If not now it's in the universe anything can happen. If he's said it multiple times then he's asking for challengers.
Finally, if NFL football is still being played in a similar format many years from now. One day some kid from some tiny town(or super athlete grow laboratory) is gonna see this quote know who Brady is and spend his entire life dedicated to proving one guy wrong. Thats just sports baby.
That said, there are a number of unattainable athletic records, feats, & etc. Having a playing career arc like Brady's with all the accolades and accomplishments seems pretty close to making the list
