Two future Hall of Fame quarterbacks will square off for likely the final time Sunday when Drew Brees and the New Orleans Saints host Tom Brady and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers for an NFC Divisional Round playoff game.
Brees has had the upper hand versus Brady throughout his career. He's 5-2 in seven career matchups against Brady, including a 2-0 mark versus the Bucs in the 2020 regular season. But this will be the first ever playoff meeting between Brady and Brees.
