No quarterback in NFL history has made more wins than Tom Brady. Brady has 230 wins in the regular season, 44 more than the next closest passer. He has 34 postseason wins, 18 more than the next closest QB. And he has seven Super Bowl wins, three more than the next closest flag.

His last Lombardi Trophy, of course, was won earlier this month. Brady did the necessary work to obtain it, but made sure that his teammates did too. According to Mike Evans, Brady was active with texting during the week leading up to the game, making sure his teammates were up to date on the Kansas City Chiefs defense study.

“He was texting us with lots of clips, lots and lots of movies about what to expect on certain descents and distances,” said Evans during an appearance on Michael Irvin’s podcast, according a transcript from the Tampa Bay Times. “And he does it all the time, but only in the playoffs and especially in this game, he went further.

“Like 12 at night, six in the morning. People aren’t even awake and he’s telling us this isn’t going to work against this guy. You have to talk like that. This is the detail that went into this and the extra meetings and all hard work. Everything was worth it and Tom is a great leader. “

The way Evans describes Brady’s writings is slightly different from the version we previously obtained from Leonard Fournette (also known as Playoff Lenny and / or Lombardi Lenny), who previously said that Brady was text messaging your companions simply, “WE WIN.” One version of these Super Bowl week texts seems more useful than the other.
