For the tenth time in his career, Tom Brady is heading to the Super Bowl. In his first season with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, the Hall of Fame quarterback proved that he can lead an organization other than the New England Patriots to the top of the mountain.
Brady completed 20-of-36 passes for 280 yards and had 3 touchdowns with 3 interceptions, but ultimately his work was enough to lead Tampa Bay to a 31-26 victory over Green Bay at Lambeau Field to punch a ticket to Super Bowl. He’ll get the opportunity to win his seventh title, and his first outside of New England.
After the game, Brady was caught on camera sharing a special moment with his son. He sought him out after the final whistle blew and celebrated the big victory in an awesome way:
"Can I say hi to my son?"

Even fans that despise Brady and all his success have to admit that’s a touching moment.
Brady helped lead the Buccaneers to an 11-5 record in the regular season then guided the team to victories over Washington, New Orleans and Green Bay in the playoffs. Now, he’ll face a huge challenge against reigning Super Bowl champions Kansas City.
Super Bowl LV is scheduled for Sunday, Feb. 7 with kickoff set for 6:30 p.m. ET on CBS.
