If you've not heard about it by now--as though you'd been located on Mars for the last 22 years--Brady got drafted into <a href="https://www.mmoexp.com/Nfl-22/Coins.html">Mut 22 coins</a> the sixth round which was 199th overall to the Patriots in the 2000 NFL Draft. Brady was a seemingly unremarkable quarterback and his rookie Madden score was reflective of that. Brady only threw three passes that year , all in spot assignments behind Drew Bledsoe, connecting on one of them with six yards. The entire team, especially the New York Jets--knew who Brady would eventually become.
Perhaps due to his lack of playing time to this point, or perhaps due to the darts-on-a-dartboard nature of the players that were virtually unknown in Madden Brady's overall rating decreased by 6 points during Madden NFL 02, which was the time of the beginning of 2001's season. He wouldn't take long before Brady made his debut, though, coming in for injured Drew Bledsoe when that the Jets' Mo Lewis clobbered the quarterback and sent Brady to the bench for Week 3. The rest is history. By the time Bledsoe was healthy enough to resume his work after his injury, he'd already lost his job to the young and aspiring Tom Brady.
Brady would later lead the team to an overall record of 11-5 (11-3 as the starter) and--after two wild playoff games with the Raiders and Steelers -- lead the Patriots franchise to their first Super Bowl victory. If you've read about this story it's likely that you'll be aware that this wouldn't be its last.
After beating the preposterously dubbed "Greatest Show On Turf" St. Louis Rams, Brady came into 2002 as a reigning champion as well as the starter for Week 1. In Brady's 22-year career as a starter, he played for 20 of them (we'll go over his disastrous 2008 campaign later), and he made rounds 19 times out of the 20 seasons that he played in. 2002 was the sole one in which Brady didn't play in the January game, being 9-7 and losing on a tiebreaker between three divisions the following year, which instead led the Jets to the playoffs. It was this early-era Brady who was viewed as game manager, however the season's 28 touchdowns were his career-high before Randy Moss showed up half more than a decade later. This would also prove to be Brady's last season in Madden in <a href="https://www.mmoexp.com/Nfl-22/Coins.html">buy Madden 22 coins</a> which he'd be graded below a 90.
