Tom Brady joined Drew Brees postgame for one last look at the Superdome John Sigler Mon, January 18, 2021, 2:34 PM·1 min read
The Superdome lights were beginning to shut off, but Drew Brees and his family remained on the field. The New Orleans Saints quarterback was still soaking everything in — the hurdles he and his teammates had overcome this season, and the painful playoffs loss they’d been dealt by the Tampa bay Buccaneers — when the passer who had just beaten him strolled up to chat.
It’s unknown what was exchanged between Tom Brady and Brees, but he was a welcome addition to the scene. Brady chatted with Brees and his wife, and threw a touchdown pass to one of their sons as he ran into the end zone. After a while, the two quarterbacks embraced before Brady picked up his bags and took his leave, joining his own teammates as they left for Tampa Bay.
That conversation couldn’t have been easy. But it was a great gesture by Brady to speak with Brees privately, and to his credit Brees handled it all with grace. The mutual respect between them speaks for itself. It’s just a shame that we never got to see the pair duel more often in their primes.

Good to hear. Nessmuck already knew what you folks just found out.
I got myself a seniors' GPS. Not only does it tell me how to get to my destination, it tells me why I wanted to go there.

Brady is probably the best QB in history. However I think he should have given Brees and his family some privacy.

He did give them privacy, before and after they talked. He stopped by to say hi and left. Who in the world could find a problem with that?

Boco couldn't catch a cold. But if he did, it would be Top Lot.

Sorry to pop your cork, KK. I would have given him some privacy with his family, that’s all.

I hadn’t seen the pictures, maybe I was wrong by questioning his actions.
