New England Patriots quarterback Tom Brady was once again named the No.1 player in the NFL.

Every year the NFL Network put together a list of the top 100 players in the league and it appears they have gotten it right once again. For the second straight year, NFL players named New England Patriots quarterback Tom Brady the best player in the league.

This isn’t that surprising. Brady was also ranked No.1 in 2011 and has been in the top 5 ever since. Even at 40 years old Brady continues to be an elite player.

Brady had a phenomenal season for the Patriots. He threw for 4577 yards, 32 touchdowns and only had 8 interceptions. Brady also boasted a stellar 66.3 completion percentage.

It’s amazing to think that Brady is still able to perform at such a high level. Brady has played 18 seasons. That is double some guys careers.

Brady’s performance last season was so good he won his 3rd league MVP. The only thing that would’ve made his season better would have been winning the Super Bowl.

Even though Brady was unable to secure his sixth ring, he had a fantastic game. Brady threw for over 500 yards and had three touchdowns. He easily would have been named Super Bowl MVP.

There is no doubt about it. Tom Brady is the greatest of all time.

It may have been a tumultuous offseason filled with controversy, but let’s take a step back and admire greatness. Let’s remember how lucky we are to witness Tom Brady threw picture-perfect passes.
