Winning the NFL MVP award might not be a great omen for Tom Brady.
The past eight winners of the AP MVP award to reach the Super Bowl have lost the game, including Brady in the 2007 season against the New York Giants.
The other MVPs to lose the big game since Kurt Warner did the regular season-Super Bowl MVP double in the 1999 season for the Rams are: Warner (2001), Rich Gannon (2002), Shaun Alexander (2005) Jeffery Simmons Jersey , Peyton Manning (2009 and 2013), Cam Newton (2015) and Matt Ryan (2016).
Brady would rather join Warner, Steve Young (1994), Emmitt Smith (1993), Joe Montana (1989) Nate Davis Jersey , Terry Bradshaw (1978) and Bart Starr (1966) as the players to win the regular season and Super Bowl MVPs in the same season.

The coldest Super Bowl Sunday won’t be felt inside cozy U.S. Bank Stadium.
The overnight temperature in Minneapolis reached minus-6 degrees and was up to 2 degrees around four hours before kickoff between the New England Patriots and Philadelphia Eagles.
The coldest previous range was the Detroit Super Bowl in 1982, with a low of 5 degrees and a high of 16 when it was played at the Silverdome. There was a chance for the Minneapolis high to reach 5 on Sunday.
When the Super Bowl was in Minnesota at the Metrodome in 1992, the outside temperature at kickoff was 26 degrees. That’s the average high here for Feb. 4.
The coldest outdoor game in Super Bowl history was in New Orleans at Tulane Stadium in 1972, when the kickoff temperature was 39 degrees.

The NFL is a quarterback driven league. Often the face of the franchise, the quarterback's success and failures tie in directly with that of the teams. Just looking back at the past several Super Bowl winning teams they all have had exceptional quarterbacks including players such as Tom Brady Tytus Howard Jersey , Payton Manning, Russell Wilson and Drew Brees. All of these guys are what one would call a franchise quarterback, players who solidify the teams quarterback position for years.The New York Jets, also known as the Titans (1960-62) have been a franchise that have lacked a franchise quarterback for most of their existence. The Jets have had starting quarterbacks that have had a decent run of a few years, but often never held down the post to make fans and ownership feel comfortable with them for the long term.The Jets have just one Super Bowl win and appearance in 58 seasons. Their all time record is 392 wins 468 losses and eight ties. The team has not drafted particularly well at quarterback Gary Jennings Jr. Jersey , most recently they have done terrible. They have signed or traded for quarterbacks that were past their prime and just names that fans recognized as good players, but never panned out with the Jets.43 starting quarterbacks have gone under center for the New York Jets and this list is going to rank each one of them. While their accomplishments in college or with another franchise will be noted it will not factor into where each player ranks on the list, only what they have done in a Jets uniform. So lets get to it and rank every starting quarterback in the history of the New York Jets!
