Bradshaw won his first Super Bowl IX against Minnesota Vikings. Terry won a total of four Super Bowls in his career and was also able to bag the league MVP in 1978.
“Joe Cool”, as he is affectionately known, won his first Super Bowl against the Bengals.When you consider that he was selected 82nd overall in the third round of the 1979 draft, his achievement is all the more remarkable.
Russell Wilson was 25 years old when he triumphed over his current team (Denver Broncos) led by Peyton Manning-led at that point in time. Another miracle story if one recalls that he was the 75th pick in the third round of the draft, the main reason being his below-average height for a QB.
It only makes sense that Tom Brady started winning early to grab those seven rings! TB12 was 24 when he won his first Super Bowl in 2001 with the Patriots.
With similarities to the aforementioned Tom Brady, Patrick Mahomes may prove to be a once-in-a-generation talent. The fact that he also defeated the San Francisco 49ers in the Super Bowl at the age of 24 may have served as the fuel.
Big Ben is placed on a pedestal that he may never be pulled off. Since winning at only 23 years old was the highest of highs, it is almost impossible to follow it up with an echo that can generate the same level of fanfare.
