Tom Brady finished his first season with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in style on Sunday night as he led his new team to a Super Bowl title with a 31-9 win over Patrick Mahomes and the Kansas City Chiefs.
This was Brady’s seventh Super Bowl victory but it’s his first one without his former coach, the also legendary Bill Belichick.
The Patriots and Brady basically broke up after last season. While Brady went to Florida and became a champion yet again, Belichick and the Patriots struggled to a 7-9 record and missed out on the playoffs.
NFL fans had lots of jokes about Belichick after Brady’s latest title:
Bill Belichick is about to fire whoever running this account. https://t.co/lSmhCpJ7ub
