Patriots Starter: Tom Brady
Super Bowl LI will feature a match-up between two elite quarterbacks, both of whom can make a case for being the 2016 NFL MVP. The New England Patriots have Tom Brady, who already has four Super Bowl rings and three Super Bowl MVP trophies to go with them. The 39-year-old Brady missed the first four games of the 2016 season and still managed to make the Pro Bowl, throw 28 touchdowns and pass for 3,554 yards and posting a 67.4 percent completion percentage. He threw just two interceptions in 432 pass attempts in his 12 games.
In the postseason, Brady didn't have a great game against the Houston Texans, throwing two interceptions and going 18-38 in pass attempts. But the Pats offence still posted 34 points and the defense kept the Texans to just 16. Against the Pittsburgh Steelers in the AFC Championship game, Brady was precise, throwing no interceptions, three touchdowns and going 32-42, with 384 passing yards. He heads into Super Bowl LI looking to win his fifth, which would be the most all-time for a quarterback. It's his seventh Super Bowl, all with coach Bill Belichick.
