Tom Brady won 35 playoff games during his NFL career, the most by any starting quarterback in league history. He earned those victories across 48 postseason starts with the New England Patriots and Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
Brady’s playoff résumé began with New England’s victory in Super Bowl XXXVI after the 2001 season. Over the next two decades, he repeatedly guided his teams through the postseason, winning seven Super Bowls in total: six with the Patriots and one with Tampa Bay.
His 35 wins include victories in wild-card, divisional-round, conference-championship, and Super Bowl games. Brady won 30 postseason games with New England from 2001 through 2019, then added five with Tampa Bay between 2020 and 2022.
The number is sometimes confused with his 251 regular-season wins or his 10 conference-championship victories. Those are separate records. In this question, “playoff games won” refers to games Brady won as his team’s starting quarterback.
