Tom Brady won seven Super Bowl rings during his legendary NFL career, so it's safe to say he has a sense for which quarterbacks could be Super Bowl champions.

Brady was asked which quarterback he thinks will win their first Super Bowl ring next, and he was quick to give his response: Buffalo Bills star Josh Allen.

However, Brady admitted that Allen has one major obstacle in his way: the Kansas City Chiefs and quarterback Patrick Mahomes. The Bills have made the playoffs the past five seasons under Allen, and three of those runs ended because of the Chiefs and Mahomes. The Chiefs went on to win Super Bowls in two of those seasons.

"I like Josh Allen a lot," Brady said on the DeepCut Podcast. "I'd pick Josh. I like Josh a lot as a guy, as a leader. But, you know, he's got to get past the Chiefs and that's hard because Patrick's incredible in the way he leads that team."

Allen has an interesting 2024 season ahead of him after the Bills traded star receiver Stefon Diggs to the Houston Texans earlier this month. The duo played for the Bills together for the past four seasons.
