Brady had led the Patriots back from a 28-point defecit by the fourth quarter, but the 49ers ultimately took the game, 41-34. Brady later commented on the outcome of the game, stating on WEEI-AM, "I'm really proud of the fact our guys never blinked an eye down 28 points against probably the best defense in the league."

With his many career accomplishments, Brady has been compared to such legendary quarterbacks as Joe Namath and Joe Montana, among others.
