Brady's postseason record includes a 33-11 mark, 14 conference championship appearances and 10 trips to the Super Bowl. If the Bucs dethrone the champs, Mahomes would become the sixth quarterback Brady has beaten multiple times in the playoffs.

Unlike Warner, he wasn't going to get ahead of himself and talk about anything but the Super Bowl title in front of him.
