The Time Tom Brady Upset #5 Alabama 

Who

Brady

Ikr

@@Eugenedrummerboy whoooosh

😂

Hail yeah

Being from his hometown, we have an odd mix of lovers and haters. I don't have much opinion about the man, but whenever people bash him, I make sure to ask if they know who Tim Rattay is

@@jefft5824 Tim Rattay could sling it in College. He went to LA Tech right?

@@bruceevert1655 Yeah, I suppose. But a local guy from a power 5 conference with that great of a w/l record wasn't appealing for the 49ers somehow...

This is the biggest lie. He threw 30 touchdowns in 4 years. Nobody thought he was any kind of team captain

I literally paused the video was he scored his third TD and said to myself, "And where is he now in comparison to Brady?" No shade. One hell of a ball player but it is funny to listen to the commentators shill for the Red Tide so hard XD

@@nerdvananorth2905 Its physically near-impossible to have anything close to a career like Brady's in the NFL in any position that's not QB, let alone RB. Comparing apples to oranges.

He set many records and won many awards in the NFL. 8 season, five of which were very productive, is far better than average for a running back. And where is he now? He's sitting on an 8 figure fortune so doing alright.

RBs die at the age of 30

yeah i mean no shit when you get hit on every play youre gonna have a short career lol

Lol

Ohhhhhhhh…you just slammed me with a literal ton of feels! 🥺 All of those weekends spent with my boys playing NCAA…Fuck.

I still own and play my ps2. The game I play right now is ncaa football 2006. I still really enjoy the game

I miss this sound and type of announcing it sounded so cheesy but awesome at the same time.

Omg was thinking the same at the beginning! So true

The irony of that report is so funny.

Word was Tom did not have the arm strength, so teams went on about their business drafting other quarterbacks Pennington, Carmazzi, Redmond, Martin, Bulger, and Wynn. Not sure what their arm strength was.

@@ericscottstevens I know.. Tom looked like he had plenty of arm strength in this game. He was zipping it down the field.

@@robertb4432 nah not really...accurate..definitely not a cannon

@@ericscottstevens brady always had decent arm strength but his touch has no peer

The more you watch football the more you actually get an understanding of what makes a good player. People often get to mixed up looking at stats, and don’t actually look at the player themselves as an all around player.

Only was due to the fact that he had a team not a great team but a well balanced team for most of his career and if not you would not hear about him in the NFL.

God Bless your Father. He was a wise Man. Go Blue!

​@@Fusion05wow we've been doing it wrong the whole time. We need to actually look at them and of course we'll know they can hang with the best of the best. Plenty pass the eye test, but can't do it. It's so hard to predict. Who passes your eye test going into the draft?

@@JS-st9gs gonna focus on QB for now, think that's who you meant. I don't see a ton of potential this year, however there are a couple of guys I like assuming they go to the draft. Jayden Daniels seems to have a great chance at being the best in the class. He's got good arm strength, he's 6 foot 4 inches, 210lbs. He has great speed and over all agility. His accuracy seems to be incredible, although that could be the WRs he has. He covers the ball very well when he takes off which isn't seen as much as you'd think. The big con is he takes some huge hits. If he can learn when to save himself and when to lay it on the line, he'll be a great QB. Quinn Ewers is also great. Not as fast as Daniels from what I've seen, but pretty much has everything else. Besides those 2 I'm not super impressed

And his poor physical skills, he was slow and lacked a powerful arm. It would be logical not to draft Brady high because it seemed he lacked much upside. However, the choice that really confuses me would be Spergon Wynn, he had a rocket arm but had such terrible stats and it seems obvious he would never be cut out for NFL play.

@@questingfish7498 - Lacked upside? He was the most accurate, most successful QB coming from the biggest college. Look at Mac Jones destroy all the other “athletic” quarterbacks from the draft. Playing QB is 99% about the brain and 1% about athleticism.

The only people who say this stuff are people who actually know nothing about college football

@@questingfish7498 because physical ability is a talent you can't just buy

@@questingfish7498 lacked a powerful arm?? Tom Brady has a cannon

Not only is he still playing but hes the best player on the planet

You had kids too young fam

@@Peter-nu8st Eh, 20 isn’t the worst I’ve seen, but good for them!

I wasn’t even alive during this game and Brady is still playing.

I was not existent for 3 more years when this game aired. I’m 18 now

I mean, he already won a Super Bowl with the son of Antoine Winfield, a player he competed against I think 7 times from 2001 to 2010. Winfield was drafted in 1999, so it's not too far apart from some of these college guys.

he might be playing when his son gets there.

Alexander wasn't even a senior, had a great NFL career, retired 10 years ago, and this Brady guy is still taking snaps, still winning. Hard to argue with winning

The son of Asante Samuel is in the league now, and his dad was a player that I believe was drafted by the Patriots after Brady. Checked. Dad was drafted in 2003, and the son is now playing for the Chargers to put that into perspective. xD

Or daughters.

Good to hear. That had to hurt.

‘The helmet’s gone’. That would have been a 15 year penalty and the game might have seen a different result if they were playing today’s rules…. Plus the shoulder pads would have been smaller. 😂😂😂

He decided to go to med school because he missed a college extra point?

@@jygb7092 I do not have the answer to that. My guess is that he was in college for that purpose regardless, and that the opportunity to go onto the NFL fell through (perhaps in part due to this miss).

No, that was his plan the whole time. You can't bank on going to the NFL. Less than 1% do. @@jygb7092

One retired 14 years ago. One could win his 7th superbowl this year.

@@timgreen3588 Your point being what exaxtly?

@@timgreen3588one is an rb who physically cant play to 90 years old or whatever tom was when he retired idk why the hell I just replied to a 2 year old comment but theres no point in me deleting my reply so whatever

@@timgreen3588look up the average nfl running back career span. Alexander far exceeded that. If you don’t understand football don’t comment on a football video dimwit

@@scranemdranem336 truly a moment

The golden era was long before the late 1990s. Unless you meant 1890s, then I'll allow it.

Same for basketball. Mj, magic, bird, shaq entering league, malone and Stockton etc etc. NBA now sux.

The Schembeckler vs Hayes was epic

Yeah was just a thrill to watch a bowl game where a starting QB threw 30 touchdowns in 4 years. What a time to live in.

@@curnys4 more to football than just passing with no defense allowed

Yeah, he didn’t pan out with Da Bear unfortunately. I can’t blame him though. He had some awful QB’s throwing to him. I think 2004 was DT’s best year in the League.

Alexander went 19th in the 2000 draft

probably says more about the Bears

sweet home Alabama

@@harrywang6792 but they aren’t siblings

@@user-bv5gj3ez5e You can ever be sure in Alabama.

@@harrywang6792 What ever Wang!

Huh

Poppycock. Tom is below average in most quarterback abilities. He's allowed to win because it's scripted entertainment. If teams played real football and didn't follow a script the NFL would gradually become a far less entertaining product for most of the fans. Many games would be blow-outs with no 4th quarter suspense. Some games would be very low-scoring and lack the thrills of offensive fireworks. And it would be impossible to deliberately arrange the point-spreads. The 100 billion dollars being gambled every NFL season would be inaccessible to team owners, their families and mob-friends. The best players would be random if the games weren't scripted. No more charismatic, beautiful movie stars who always win. Some of the game's best players would be downright ugly and mean. Take, for example, the Women's NBA...a basketball league that attracts only a small audience. In Chicago this week, the WNBA championship team got a parade. But very few people seemed to attend. Mostly empty streets greeted the tall ladies. But what if the WNBA decided to become more popular? Here's what they'd need to do: Begin searching the college teams for the most physically attractive young women. Make sure that these fine young ladies are drafted into the WNBA. Coach the teams to allow these gorgeous ladies of basketball to score and win most of the time. As the game's premiere faces became more beautiful, more fans would be attracted to the sport. Of course, these lovely women wouldn't really be the best players...but for the good of the WNBA they would win and become marketable stars. A similar thing exists in women's figure skating. At times this sport achieves immense popularity with the public. Why? Because it's not exactly a real sport. Figure skating is judged. The winner is subjective. This allows the most beautiful skaters to get the highest marks from the judges. You end up with a bevy of ice-skating beauties who attract lots of eyes to the sport. Are they really the best figure skaters? ah-HAHAHAAH! Not even close! There's homely women that could jump and skate circles around these sexpots. But the sport would be quickly ignored by the public if they became the stars. Every NFL team is really just one team. They all win the Super Bowl as long as the league is making billions in profit.

A lot like Cade McNamara.

According to Belichick, Brady wasn’t on anyone’s radar specifically because he was never the starter for Michigan. The Michigan head coach always started that other dude before him, who would put Michigan in the hole, then the coach would put Brady in who would bring the team back up from behind for the win. Belichick said he kept Brady on his board because he was so impressed with how Brady could always bring them back from defeat to snag the victory, and he did it from behind every time. But he assumed Brady must be difficult to coach, otherwise why would anyone ever not start him? They saw he was still available in the sixth, so they snatched him up. No one ever even once considered that maybe the Michigan head coach was just an absolute moron.

​@@mr.doctorcaptain1124Lloyd Carr a moron? Sheesh that's harsh 😂

@@mr.doctorcaptain1124 I feel like all of that could've been easily figured out with a 30 second conversation with either Brady or the coach.

it's crazy. His poise and everything looks exactly the same. The one thing he knew then that he has always done is how he uses his weapons properly in order to create space for other receivers. Just mind fucks the secondary.

😂

can't lose a step when you never had one to begin with XD

@@oldfrend So very true. Love Tom, but let's face it, he's not a speedster.

And a rocket for an arm....and receivers never lost a step when catching a pass from Brady!!!

I think people started underrating Tom's arm when Charlie Weiss wouldn't let him throw deep often. That was an overthrow habit that Charlie wanted to cure, not lack of arm strength. People are basically clueless with stats like average completion and if it's short they think he can't throw deep, and DUH, it must be arm strength. Tom has plenty of arm even today. Maybe more since he has refined his mechanics relentlessly and improved leg strength.

Anyone who watched Patriots 2007 season knows that Brady had a deep ball as good as anyone. Randy Moss baby!

@@WilliamFisher1 that Brady/Moss combination was lethal. I still preferred the method of spreading the ball around, but who could argue that it was history in the making? They were defeated up front by the Giants, which goes to show you why the Bucs also were so successful. No matter who your WRs are, or how fast they are, or how historic they are, they are worthless when your QB is on his arse.

@@zeppelinmexicano Well to be fair, they lost on a miracle catch 😁

@@WilliamFisher1 and a miracle drop by Asante. That's when you know it's not your day, huh? Shite happened.

Yea..Bradys collage percentage was 60% The year he won his first superbowl he improved 1% Then when he went on his first 3 siperbowls it went to almost 72%

Not magic ,pure hard work and determination to prove should have been drafted in the first round ,not 6th

But did he ever piss in a radiator?

@@judynichols2904 Yeah I'm sure you would surmise in the year 1999 that he has pure hard work and determination, more than the other 130 FBS QB's that will set him apart to be an all time legend. Nobody knew this. You can't know this at the time. Hindsight is 20/20 and those that say they know he'd be the all time GOAT if they were back in 1999 without knowledge of his future are full of cow maneur.

Nah I doubt it

Gonna be a bust

@@sambellware5810 most likely lmao.

He’ll hold a clipboard, nothing more.

I bet he not going to win any super bowls either.

Henson was the better athlete. Brady was the way better quarterback.

@@charlesstuart7290 funny because that's the same comparison throughout his whole career. Yeah, some guys are better athletes but the QB position isn't just physical talent. Way more to the position then that.

That was tough to watch week in and week out. It was so obvious that Henson was favorite of the coaching staff. Yet, all Tom did was come in and bail them out each time.

And he still plays like he has a chip on his shoulder

@@Rockyinlp actually Henson wasn't favored, he was just hyped as the best highschool QB out of michigan and personally recruited by a michigan legend Bo Schembechler. Carr actually named Brady the QB for rest of season in '99 which caused Henson to threaten to transfer.

I was there too. My son was in his mamas belly there too. I cried tears of joy at the end of this game. It was such a great game!

What about the other Michigan- Bama games? :). Doubt you were as happy. Ironic that the next game will be Bama vs. Michigan in the college football playoff.

BLUE SUCKS😊

Are you happy about the recent Michigan-Bama game? :) ​@@morehamsandwich

😊😊😊

Damn! You've watched it a lot! I just watched it this one time.

Every team thought that.

i mean that wr was making plays

They both played another year at michigan and went in the draft after Brady . So they probably didn't even watch this film.

@@coreytumulty816 The RB Howard was clearly going to be trash , though, due to his lack of any burst. I remember laughing when Cleveland drafted that idiotic , gangly guy Wynn JUST because he could move a bit. Brady clearly had been overthought due to his beer belly and other measurables. He just fired bullets and stayed cool under pressure. I was lucky enough to find a couple of his cards in that awful 2000 class, while looking for Pennington and others. Now, Zack Wilson (aka Dutchboy) is going to bring the pendulum back to give the JETS THE NEXT GOAT. YOU HEARD IT HERE. BETTER THAN MAHOMES. GET TO THE BOOKIE NOW.

@@coreytumulty816 As a Bears fan, I can admit that you're probably right. Our drafts have stunk for the last 25-30 years.

I’m young but that’s something I’ve noticed, football has softened and positions like fullback aren’t utilized enough

Alstott enough said

Tom Rathman - 49ers! Beast - and I'm a Vikings fan!

49ers still use their FB, Juszczyk.@@govikes689

Mack Strong was lethal blocking for Shaun Alexander with the Seahawks

The comment feed screams "I've never watched college football. I just know Tom Brady"

The best

I was watching the game with one of my college buddies. When Bama lined up for the extra point in OT he turned and looked at me and said "they are going to miss".

@@jaelmore6456 I sound like I'm aware of college football😂 you can tell people who only watch NFL on this feed.

@@jaelmore6456 you can't argue because you didn't and don't watch college football. His stats were not good and there's no argument for it

Patrick Mahomes wasn't even in Kindergarten when this game was played.

"Accepting the loss from his future-kid's future-partner's father, ..."

ikr Dhani Jones, Shaun Alexander?

Is Charles Woodson in this game?

@@davidharper8500 no.

5 things*

Freaking amazing every team passed on him. If you look at video of some of the QBs picked ahead of him, you have to ask WTF were they thinking. Obviously we have the luxury of hindsight ..but at least 2 of the QBs picked over Brady had nothing on them. Good on Tom to show the world and every other NFL team how wrong they were to doubt his ability

That's actually 5 things lol

@@jayrod9979 They were on a crappy team he always had a good team why do the morons not see this?

Seeing if the Lions could win with Brady would be the ultimate challenge. But alas, don't look like it will ever happen, except perhaps as a *coach* after he retires who knows when.

It's the curse, man

I disagree, Brady would have made them winners. I’m a Red Sox fan from Boston. Curses were meant to be broken…

Lions always had HOF kickers. They had a ton of practice 🤷‍♂️

BRADY would have given Detroit, 5-7 Superbowls, for real, AND would still be playing there, no matt stafford, and no jared goff

His passes are accurate but not hard in this one, seems he got a lot of help in this one with some crazy yac from Terrell

Don't put it all on the kicker. Number 41 got torched twice due to poor tackling. Win as a team loose as a team and I am a Bama graduate. This was my junior year. Still proud!

Nothing more synonymous than Alabama and loosing nailbiters because of kicking.

It's because he was not a good college QB at all.

Oh that Alabama kicker!!!!🤣🤣🤣👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽

How could you lol? They total different back then

When I think of him I just assume he came straight to the league out of nowhere

Lol I only know because I'm an Auburn fan. Would make a decent trivia question.

As an LSU fan and the same age as Shaun, the haunting memories from 1996-99 of him being a Tiger Killer never fade 😂

michigan was also one of alexander's last choices, it could have been him and brady together. wikipedia says he chose the warmer weather of alabama.

If he won that SB vs my Steelers he's in the hall...weird how Priest and Shaun are weak choices for the jacket

@@fredleeland2464 Priest is so underrated! Dude was unstoppable for a a couple years, and same with Shaun. I think it’s because their prime was kinda short that they don’t get the respect they should. Plus, their prime being kinda short is understandable when you had the running style of those two.

@@cultbender priest was 3 years but shaun was a good 5...same as Earl Campbell

He was on the cover of NCAA '00 or '01 I cant remember which one

Yeah, he had size, speed, moves and was always a class act. I remember watching this game thinking both would have some careers in the NFL, but I never would have guessed that Tom would still be playing at the level he is and winning! I watched almost every single televised UofM game for all of Brady's college career, he had less of ups and downs but he was always pretty clutch and never really got flustered like other QB's did.

Thanks

More like you been following him since he started winning in the NFL

@@victorhardin2186 I'm from michigan, and watched Michigan football religiously as a teenager. Of course I've been following Brady since UofM, he made our school competitive like he was. Always knew he was the 🐐

Yup.

@@victorhardin2186 for me it was the Howard stern interview tbh

Tom brady= being carried by defenses and special teams

Remember this was the era when UM would only throw downfield when down by 14 or more. The entire passing game was short of the sticks and outside the hashmarks. Suddenly, when losing, the offense opens up, and works perfectly. That staff wanted to do as little as possible for their wins. They sandbagged all day against App State, and never could flip the switch. It's a disrespect of the opponent. Even against 'Bama, they tried to play it safe and cute for the first half, thinking their base vanilla offense would be good enough. We see what that got them. A highly annoying offensive philosophy, courtesy of Mike DeBord and Lloyd Carr.

Actually, he CAN throw downfield. Randy Moss anyone?

@@hitthepost I think bye was referring to his critics before he made it to the NFL

Back before bowl games became the "pop tart bowl" and the "chick fil a bowl" and shit like that

Bowl games were fun because they felt like a championship game. They were nothing but glorified consolation games for the team that didn't win anything. Michigan used to get excited about the Citrus Bowl

Nah he turned out to be a bust in the NFL

@@RSHighlights ttue

the penn state game

@@RSHighlights *to have a bust made for him in Canton That would be my retort if I thought you were serious haha.

Yea that guy shawn alexander is pretty good

09:09 too

while watching I looked it up and was sad to learn he didn't have a successful pro career

He made a heck of an attempt to salvage that blocked kick. That's grit and quick thinking that no one measures at the combine.

Damn Right!

Nah. Usc texas bro

@@xancypillosi9497 I said "one of the best games"

Only a moron would rely on "the combine" [ Lol ] to tell them whether or not some dude has a real(i.e. enduring) future in the NFL.

Mac had one of the greatest seasons ever for a college QB, set NCAA records, lit up the best defenses the sport had to offer en route to a undefeated season an national championship an if it wasn't for the pat's taking him at #15 no telling how far down he would have fell, need to definitely find out what scouts an coaches have been smoking for the last 20+yrs🤣

This is called 20/20 hindsight that you have gathered from seeing his NFL play. If you're an expert, you tell me what 6th or 7th round pick in this year's NFL mock draft is going to make it in the NFL now? Hint, you won't be able to. No way as an NFL franchise or you in 2000, you could say this quote. What would make you say he worked harder than everyone else in college? His stats certainly didn't back that up. Every college QB wanting to get to the NFL works hard every play. No one knew that back then. Nobody said that back then besides his head coach and head coaches say that about every qb they're about to have drafted. Not one person did predict he'd turn out to be what he is, but all of the sudden there's 100,000 people on this youtube video claiming they knew he'd be great by looking at 1 game with his whole 23 year NFL career as hindsight. Not even looking at his other 20 games in college. That's called delusional. If 0 people predicted it then, then all 100,000 here claiming they'd know in 2000 are full of BS. Just like not one person here could've predicted Brock Purdy would be doing well now.

His other 20 games, which 20 games is 20 times the amount of 1 game, stats were horrible. People are so dumb. Oooh if I were in 2000 I would've just paid attention on this potential draft pick's 1 game but ignore that he did horrible in his other 20 games

@@user-zf1kd5qq1t Yeah, people are so dumb. From Wikipedia: "Brady finished his career ranking third in Michigan history with 710 attempts and 442 completions, fourth with 5,351 yards and 62.3 completion percentage, and fifth with 35 touchdown passes." Terrible, just terrible.

@@TerryJLaRue Finishing 3rd in passing attempts (likely at that time in 2000 and not now) isn't an accomplishment. I can go out and throw 710 times in a game. A grandma can throw a ball 710 times. The fact that he was 3rd in attempt but ranked below 3rd in TDs and yards means that he wasn't an efficient QB. Also, You got the wrong stats. I'm seeing 4700 yards and 30 TDs 17 INTs. His career rating was 134.9. That's nothing at all to say as good and likely ranked 15th to 30th in passer rating that year with that. Counting yards and TD's imo means nothing because if every QB before you threw 300 attempts and you threw 700, of course you're going to have more TDs and yards. Just means more opportunities to throw. Doesn't mean you're a good QB, passer rating is the measure of a good QB, efficiency. If a lawyer takes the bar 10 times and passes 3 times, but another lawyer takes the bar 1 time and passes 1 time, your reasoning is the lawyer that passed 3 times is a better lawyer because he passed more times than the 1 did. When he would be worst in reality. The true measure of a good QB is passer rating because that account for everything and is on a per play basis. Playing 3 seasons vs 1 season doesn't boost passer rating like it does for yards and TDs. For example, Jayden set an FBS record for passer rating this year on 40 TDs in 325 attempts. There are QBs in the past with 45 TDs in 700 attempts. Doesn't mean they're better. It's all about rating which Tom Brady was a 15th-30th ranked QB in FBS in each of his years he played.

the scouts would beg to differ

The scouts are fallible humans that got it wrong

@@jss.2020scouts were obviously wrong as humanly possible? 😂😂

Wow man you really called it after he became the goat

Do you know what hindsight means?

I actually like the all white road unis they have now just as much if not more to be honest.

If it hadn't been tipped that would've been one of the greatest endings in football

@Henry Payton this game alone should’ve got him a 3rd round at least because of his poise and never giving up

I don't agree. Brady was not exceptional or great in college. As an NFL scout, all they can do is look at the information they had available at the time. And at the time, Brady had some good attributes but he overall was not a great prospect. I always ask, what does the film say? And the film says that he sucked. That was the reality. It's easy to say now hOw sTuPiD wErE tHe sCoUtS aNd CoAcHeS tHaT dIdN't dRaFt hIm but why the hell would you draft a bad prospect when there is no indication that they will amount to anything whatsoever? A player can be bad, work their ass off and develop to become better but that takes time and the results of that are not seen until later on. But that doesn't mean they were anything special to begin with, they got there over time.

@@iode9999 Here ya go son, scroll down and read those amazing numbers... en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tom_Brady
