Tom Brady, a seven-time Super Bowl champion, continues to make waves with his insights on the NFL season. As Thanksgiving approaches, Brady has placed the Detroit Lions at the top of his weekly rankings. Their dominant 10-1 record, their best since 1934, reflects the strength of their offense led by Jahmyr Gibbs and David Montgomery. Brady also highlighted their defense, which has gone an impressive 10 quarters without allowing a touchdown under the guidance of coordinator Aaron Glenn.
Trailing the Lions in his rankings are the Kansas City Chiefs and Buffalo Bills, both vying for supremacy in the league. The Chiefs hold the edge despite a recent loss to the Bills, thanks to their ability to perform under pressure. In a tight 30-27 victory over the Carolina Panthers, Patrick Mahomes showcased his clutch play with a pivotal scramble, reinforcing the Chiefs’ reputation for finding ways to win tough games.
The Bills, however, remain a significant contender. Quarterback Josh Allen is leading an offense that averages nearly 30 points per game and is riding a six-game win streak. Brady praised Allen’s MVP-caliber performances, describing him as the driving force behind Buffalo’s success. After a well-timed bye week, the Bills are preparing to defend their perfect home record against the San Francisco 49ers.
Looking ahead, Brady predicts another playoff showdown between the Chiefs and Bills, a rivalry that has defined the AFC in recent seasons. While Allen has had more success in regular-season matchups with Mahomes, the Chiefs have dominated in the postseason, winning all three of their playoff meetings. Brady believes these two teams are on a collision course for a high-stakes January rematch.
Next on the schedule, the Bills face the Los Angeles Rams, while the Chiefs prepare for a revenge game against the Raiders, who upset them at Arrowhead last season. Both teams are aiming to solidify their playoff positions and continue their push for another Super Bowl appearance, further raising the stakes in this competitive season.
Meanwhile, Brady is set to call a highly anticipated Thanksgiving Day game between the New York Giants and Dallas Cowboys. The prime-time matchup is expected to be one of the most-watched games of the season, providing an opportunity for Brady to share his expert perspective on the league’s biggest teams and stars during the holiday spectacle.
