Tom Brady Revisits One of the NFL’s Great Dynasties in ‘Rise of the 49ers’

Tom Brady won Super Bowls with the New England Patriots and Tampa Bay Buccaneers, and he’s currently a minority owner of the Las Vegas Raiders, but the legendary quarterback’s roots in the game grew deep in San Francisco.

“My family had season tickets to the San Francisco 49ers. That alone made me fall in love with football,” Brady says. He wanted to be Joe Montana throwing deep to Jerry Rice.

A native of San Mateo, California, Brady was fortunate to have witnessed one of the NFL’s greatest dynasties at its pinnacle. The Niners won five Lombardi Trophies from the early 1980s to the mid ’90s, and featured rosters laden with all-time greats and future Hall of Famers.
