**Brady Bombshell: Steelers Would’ve CRUSHED Eagles in Super Bowl!**
Tom Brady has ignited a firestorm of debate with a bold claim that the Pittsburgh Steelers would have defeated the Philadelphia Eagles in Super Bowl LIX, delivering a brutal assessment of Patrick Mahomes and the Kansas City Chiefs[1].
“I think if the Pittsburgh Steelers had played instead of the Chiefs in the Super Bowl, this would have been the result…” Brady stated, per sources close to the Fox broadcast[1].
Brady’s assessment came after the Eagles dominated the Chiefs in a 40-22 victory[1]. Brady, who has been compared to Mahomes when discussing the greatest quarterback in the sport’s history, highlighted the risk for Mahomes should he lose: “If you don’t win, you’re 3-2 in Super Bowls, and it’s not a great feeling and there is a lot of pressure”[1]. Brady himself admitted that his Super Bowl losses hurt more than his wins feel good[2].
Here’s why Brady’s statement is so shocking:
* **Disrespect to Mahomes:** Brady’s claim undermines Mahomes’ achievements and suggests that he is not in the same league as the NFL’s all-time greats[1].
* **Steelers’ Underdog Status:** The Steelers didn’t even make it to the Super Bowl, making Brady’s hypothetical scenario seem far-fetched[1].
* **Eagles’ Dominance:** The Eagles were arguably stronger than the Tampa Bay Buccaneers team that defeated the Chiefs in Super Bowl LV[3].
Brady’s commentary suggests that the Chiefs somehow looked mortal[3]. Mahomes committed three turnovers[3]. He completed just 6 of 14 passes for 33 yards in the first half[3]. The Eagles’ Jalen Hurts, in contrast, scored three total touchdowns and completed 17 of 22 passes for 221 yards to go with 72 rushing yards and earned Super Bowl MVP[3].
While some may view Brady’s comments as a calculated attempt to stay relevant, others see them as a brutally honest assessment of the Chiefs’ performance[1][3]. Regardless of the motivation, Brady’s statement has undoubtedly shaken up the NFL landscape, sparking intense debate and solidifying his role as a provocative voice in the sport[1][3].
