Tom Brady has more playoff starts than the rest of the entire quarterback playoff field combined.
ESPN Adam’s Schefter tweeted Thursday morning:

Blake Bortles 2
Nick Foles 2
Case Keenum 1

That is an unbelievable stat. Not only does Brady have more starts than the rest combined. He has FIVE TIMES as many starts as the rest combined. Can you imagine what Vegas would have put the odds at for the four quarterbacks at this point being Keenum, Foles, Bortles and Brady? It would have had to be at least 50,000 to 1.
The thought of Blake Bortles and Tom Brady in an AFC championship game is almost too funny to comprehend, but here we are.
No matter what happens at this point, we’re getting Foles or Keenum in the Super Bowl. That alone is borderline impossible to believe. It’s going to be a ton of fun to watch how this all develops.
