Tom Brady Clutch Stats vs Aaron Rodgers Clutch Stats

There is no sight in football that strikes fear into the hearts of NFL teams than Tom Brady or Aaron Rodgers getting the ball with their team tied or trailing in the fourth quarter. As the Dallas Cowboys can certainly attest, you might as well just throw your hands up and call the game right there.

Will there ever be an answer to which of the two kings of crunch time is more clutch? Given the fact that Brady has been doing this for 20 years now, TB12 has the edge in most categories.

Brady vs. Rodgers 4th Quarter Comebacks

Brady ranks second all-time in fourth quarter comebacks with 35, one ahead of third place Drew Brees. Peyton Manning holds the record at 43, which probably isn't going to be broken anytime soon.

This is one area where Rodgers is strangely not proficient, as he has just 14 comebacks. That's the same amount as Trent Dilfer, Brad Johnson and Dan Pastorini. It's fewer than Ryan Tannehill, Jay Schroeder and Jon Kitna. However, you need to be losing when the fourth quarter starts to comeback, which Rodgers rarely is.
