Tom Brady Reveals Crucial Decision That Led to Super Bowl XLIX Win

Former quarterback Tom Brady is widely considered the greatest player in NFL history. His rare combination of personal and team success certainly helps make that claim.

In his 23 years in the league, Brady made 15 Pro Bowls, was awarded three NFL MVPs and two Offensive Player of the Year awards while also winning seven Super Bowls and being named the game's MVP five times.

Of course, you don't find this kind of success without much preparation and during an appearance on "The Herd" Brady shared a last-minute change that helped him secure the win in Super Bowl XLIX against the Seattle Seahawks.

"I wasn't feeling great about the red area package we had,” he said. “And I went in and [offensive coordinator] Josh McDaniels is in the staff room, and I said, ‘Hey, we gotta go through the red area’…. So we installed three plays on Friday night after two weeks of preparation."
