There was a time when there was a legitimate debate about whether Tom Brady was the greatest quarterback in NFL history.
Naturally, that debate was put to rest when people saw him beat Patrick Mahomes to win his seventh Super Bowl in his first year without Bill Belichick and the New England Patriots.
That’s why just getting to compete against him was such a big privilege.
With that in mind, it wasn’t much of a surprise to hear Green Bay Packers star Micah Parsons admit that he was his favorite player to sack:
“Probably is Tom [Brady]. Every time I see him it’s a competitive matchup. Whether it’s on the field, off the field, whether it’s golf or Fanatics Games, he’s always trying to be the best. When you can say you’re the last person to take out an elite competitor like Tom, it’s a special privilege,” Parsons said.
Micah Parsons was the last player to sack @TomBrady. He told me sacking the GOAT was his favorite QB to bring down. How does Micah feel about potentially sacking Dak Prescott when the #Packers face the #Cowboys on @SNFonNBC? pic.twitter.com/dHLfFKOEg6

Being the last player to sack Tom Brady is something worth including on your résumé, and being the competitor he is, Parsons definitely reminds him of that every single time their paths cross.
Parsons has now begun a new chapter of his career, this time with the Packers.
He’s about to return to Arlington to face his former team for the first time since the trade, and he will most definitely be extremely motivated to be at his best and make a statement right in front of Jerry Jones.
That’s definitely not great news for Dak Prescott.
It’s hard to believe someone will ever top Brady on Parsons’ list of favorite quarterbacks to sack.
But as long as he’s healthy and plays the Cowboys, whoever is under center for Jerry Jones’ team will be in for a nightmare of a game.
How many times will he get to his former teammate? We shall see.
