New England Patriots quarterback Tom Brady isn’t just a great player. He is also a great teammate according to James Harrison.

In anywhere besides New England, Tom Brady is looked at with great disdain. He is looked at as the head of a corrupt organization, who is a prima donna and a pretty boy. The New England Patriots quarterback seems a lot better when you are on the same team.

James Harrison found this out. The Patriots signed Harrison near the end of last season. Harrison is an absolute beast. He looks like a human mountain on the football field.

After experiencing Brady’s greatness, Harrison seems to be a fan of TB12.

"“I’m a Brady fan now; I’m not going to lie. I wanted to hate this dude. He’s the ultimate teammate. … Tom is a great QB — the best ever. I’ve never seen anyone with his study habits, his preparation. He’s filling up a whole notebook of notes with each game.”"

I get why opposing fans hate Brady. He is amazing and makes things look easy on the gridiron.

It seems like he could play until he is 50. He has shown no signs of slowing down. Last season at age 40, Brady threw for 4,577 yards, 32 touchdowns, and 8 interceptions.

Still there is no denying how great Brady is. You know how Chicago Bulls fans talk about Michael Jordan? That will be how current New England Patriots fans speak about Brady.

Brady will go down as the greatest of all time. His career is unlike any other. He went from being a late-round draft pick to a 5 time Super Bowl champion. Brady’s work ethic has been heralded for many years. His training and diet are insane. Avocado ice cream? No thank you.

There truly won’t be another player like Tom Brady. We are lucky that we are able to watch him play.

Next: Darrelle Revis calls it a career

Hopefully before he decides to call it quits, he will bring a few more banners to Gilette Stadium.
