Tom Brady v. Drew Brees for a chance to go to the NFC Championship game. To make it even sweeter, reports before the game came out that Brees would retire at the end of the current playoffs.

For most of the game it was close, going into the 4th quarter both teams were tied at 20, but the Bucs defense flexed on Brees, picking him off twice in the 4th and Tom Brady cashing in like the GOAT he is.

A nice moment after the game between Brady and Drew Brees.
