Just a couple things:No doubt, Brady has ice in his veins.
Only thing I'll say is just a tad bit misleading, is AR's post-season 4th quarter comebacks. He's nowhere near Brady, but only having one makes it appear that he's a choker. When you go through his post-season resume. He led in most 4th quarters, or was beaten by a superior team.
In 2010, when he won the SB, they led in all four 4th quarters vs PHI, ATL, CHI, PIT.
2011 was really his only possible "choke" vs NYG.
2012, beat up on Minnesota. Got beat up on by SF.
2013, came back to take SF to the wire, but Kaep went down the field and setup a GW FG as time expired in Lambeau. He also missed the second half of the season up until week 17. When he came back from a 4Q deficit, scored two TD's late and pulled off a crazy win in the final seconds to take the NFC North title from the Bears, in essentially a playoff game.
2014, I believe was the lone 4Q comeback vs Dallas and then they dominated Seattle. Only to lose on a miracle, onside kick and a score inside the last two minutes. Which he sat on the bench for. Then went down and tied the game in one minute. To force OT, which they lost immediately.
2015, they beat up on WSH, and then he forced OT on the final play of the game vs AZ and they never saw the ball in OT.
2016, he beat the hell out of NYG, then beat Dallas in a ridiculously tight game that he led the GW drive on. Then they got beat up on by ATL.
Brady is probably the most clutch QB of all-time and the GOAT, IMO. However, he has had a lot of legendary opportunities as well. I suppose that comes along with being good enough to create that. However, I can't fault Rodgers for his playoff wins being decisive and him not needing to comeback. Then, the fact that late in games, they have lost after he did his part... only to see the defense fail or meltdown. I think Rodgers has proven to be quite clutch as well.
2010: They led in the 4th quarter against the Bears, but because his defense had a pick-6
2014: They dominated Seattle, but not because Rodgers played well
2015: Yes, he forced OT against Arizona and had 13 total points on offense leading up to that Hail Mary, not a good game for him
