"I said, if you wanna be the best, you got to beat the best, and Denver went to Philly and got it done. But, I still see the Eagles as one of the top teams in the NFC. And at No.1 we got the Detroit Lions. They got off to a slow start in Week 1. But since then, they've been on fire."

@TomBrady Tom… Having the Patriots ahead of the Rams is a crime against humanity.

Tom Brady shares his thoughts on Aaron Rodgers' impact on the Pittsburgh Steelers

Aaron Rodgers joined the Steelers this season on a one-year deal. So far, he has helped them to a 3-1 record while securing a two-game winning streak.

On Sunday, Tom Brady shared his honest thoughts on the impact that Rodgers' presence has had on Mike Tomlin's team.

"Beyond impressed," Brady said about Rodgers game. "And I think at that age, there's so many other factors that come into play about how to be a great quarterback. And you know, we all want to talk about what happens in the off-season with him, and there's some things that are there's a lot of narratives. ..." "But what we do know about him on the field is he's a surgical passer. He's got a killer instinct. He's hyper competitive, and I think he's brought all those things to Pittsburgh."
