Something something Puskas and that Hungary team being really good. They would have won the final if Puskas wasn’t kicked off the field every game and there was normal refereeing in those days.

Okay, it’s a bit crazy to see people in this thread go from Bill is the goat and Brady was lucky as well.

Both were the best at leading their team to the Super Bowl. Bill helped build a culture and defenses that could perform when it mattered and Brady helped the offense and performed in clutch moments as well.

People saying Brady was just a game manager, forget that after his first season he was top6 for yards and first in TDs his second year starting. He was close to top 6, definitely top 10 the next two years after that before he finally exploded as he was given more control of the offense.

As for Bill, he destroyed dreams with the giants defence and the patriot’s defence those early years. Then he had a renaissance in the later years as his defence found its groove against the rams (one of the most dominating performances I’ve seen from a Super Bowl defence).

They are both probably the goats for coach and player for now.

Maradona was just that much of an icon to people that he will forever be held as huh.

Also I hate comparing eras, as players are more professional nowadays and the game is played much differently than before. Pitches are also much better than in the past, so it’s easier to do control, pass and shoot.
