“I remember thinking when the Patriots beat the Seahawks, when they had that interception against the Seahawks down [on the goal line] and that gave them what, their [fourth] championship?” Rivers said. “You know everyone said, ‘Well, he’s now the greatest of all time.’ And I thought to myself, I already thought he was already one of [the greatest] — I mean, how do you ever decide that? It’s like the old Michael Jordan [debate], right? We could talk about that forever, too — but I already thought he was already one of the greatest of all-time, but because they intercepted the pass, he’s now the greatest of all time? What if the Seahawks were to run it in? And the Seahawks were to have won? Brady would have just played the exact same game. He didn’t do anything different, you know?”
“It is funny how that works, so I don’t look at that [Super Bowl wins],” Rivers said.
If you’re wondering who Rivers considers to be in the GOAT conversation, he didn’t really offer any other names, except for one: Dan Marino.
“That’s why I always think Marino is right there in the mix, too,” Rivers said. “All these guys. You can’t just go off that [Super Bowl wins]. I don’t think that you can. Not in this sport, especially.”
Figures Rivers doesn’t look at Superbowl wins.
The guy hasn’t even sniffed a Superbowl, ever.
Rivers is also 0-5 against Brady.
So there’s that too.
