Tom Brady wins 5th career Super Bowl MVP, but credits Tampa Bay defense

Another Super Bowl title for Tom Brady, and yet another MVP award.

The Tampa Bay quarterback led the Buccaneers to a 31-9 win over the Chiefs in Super Bowl LV Sunday night. It was the fifth time he's won the award.


Brady completed 21-of-29 passes for 201 yards and three touchdowns with no interceptions for a 125.8 passer rating. He also extended his Super Bowl records for the most career completions (277), passing yards (3,039) and passing touchdowns (21).

Despite all that, speaking afterwards Brady credited the Tampa Bay defense for holding Kansas City's offense to nine points, which capped a great playoff run of beating quarterbacks such as Drew Brees, Aaron Rodgers and Patrick Mahomes.

“They stepped up to the challenge,” Brady said. “You go up against a guy like Pat, an incredible player, and Aaron, MVP. Two weeks ago, they played incredible. And then, Drew they played great. They just stepped up. They rose to the occasion. We needed it, because we were extremely talented offenses. Just so happy we all came to play tonight.”

Brady has said he plans on playing again in 2021.
