Most NFL quarterbacks have drawn inspiration from Tom Brady, including stars like Patrick Mahomes and Josh Allen. In the early 2010s, Allen dreamed of facing the Patriots legend, and in 2018, that dream became a reality.

Drafted by the Buffalo Bills in 2018, Allen entered the league at the tail end of Brady's 23-season career, which began in 2000. The two first faced off at New Era Field on Oct. 29, 2018. Ahead of the game, Allen shared his excitement about competing against Brady.

"It's kind of surreal that I get a chance to face off against him," Allen told the media.

Allen continued to praise Brady, who led the Patriots to a 25-6 win against the Bills.
