Blanda, of course, had a rather different career than Brady. Blanda was a quarterback and a kicker, and it was his kicking abilities that allowed him to stick around in the NFL through the age of 48. (He started just one game at quarterback after his age 39 season, throwing 23 touchdowns and 18 interceptions from 1967-75.) He was born in Pennsylvania in 1927, and he probably never owned any resistance bands, and he definitely never tasted a kale smoothie. … [Read more...] about Twitter Had A Field Day With Tom Brady-George Blanda Comparisons

This particular matchup is unique because it features a 43-year-old Brady and Brees, who will turn 42 years old two days prior to kickoff. Unsurprisingly, the combined ages of Brady and Brees make for the largest such number in NFL playoff history.
