FOX Sports’ Tom Brady is looking down memory lane as he prepares to return to Lambeau Field for Sunday’s San Francisco 49ers-Green Bay Packers game.
The seven-time Super Bowl-winning quarterback will be on the call on FOX (Sunday, 4:25 p.m. ET on FOX and the FOX Sports app), and was recently asked by a fan in a new digital series, “Tom Brady’s Fan Mailbag,” for his favorite memory from playing at the Packers’ iconic home field.
Tom Brady reveals his best Lambeau Field memories, favorite NFL road environment
“I’ve had a few. I’ll give you two because there are two great memories,” Brady replied to the question. “One, the first time that I played in Lambeau, I literally took a video of me walking down the tunnel down to the field. I felt like I was in hallowed grounds. It was one of the coolest experiences — not to mention I was playing against Brett Favre that day. It was an incredible memory.”
Against Favre, Brady’s record was 2-1 and his overall record at Lambeau Field against the Packers was also 2-1.
The five-time Super Bowl MVP’s best game on the Packers’ home field occurred during the 2006 season in a 35-0 win, in which he had 244 passing yards, threw four touchdowns, had zero interceptions, and completed 64.5% of his passes.
While most of Brady’s experiences in Green Bay happened while he was a New England Patriot, the second of his most cherished moments there actually occurred during his time as a Buccaneer.
Tampa Bay faced the Aaron Rodgers-led Packers in the January, 2021 NFC Championship game, a nail-biter of a matchup.
Green Bay went scoreless in the first quarter, but rallied back in the third to pull within 28-23. Tampa Bay withstood the comeback and ended up with a 31-26 win.
Brady went 20-for-36 passing for 280 yards and three touchdowns in the game, and secured a trip to his 10th Super Bowl appearance, which ultimately turned into his seventh and final championship.
What Brady remembers most about the game, though, is what happened after.
