Tom Brady and the New England Patriots' comeback in Super Bowl LI is one of the most memorable games in the NFL. The Patriots were down 28-3 at halftime, but a second-half resurgence over the Atlanta Falcons led to a 34-28 overtime win.
After the game, Brady spoke to reporters about the comeback and the quarterback got emotional.
"I'm tired, man. That was exactly the way we didn't plan. That was everything we didn't want to do first half. It was better in the second half, so. Just a hell of a football game," Brady told reporters after the game on Feb. 5, 2017.
Not only was it the largest comeback in the history of the Super Bowl, but it was also the first to go to overtime in the league. Brady was crowned Super Bowl MVP for an NFL record (fourth). He also became the first NFL player to win five Super Bowl titles.
