The hardest loss came first. The 2007 Patriots arrived at Super Bowl XLII 18-0 and lost 17-14 after David Tyree’s helmet catch set up Plaxico Burress’s touchdown with 35 seconds left.
The Giants beat him again four years later, 21-17. In Super Bowl LII Brady threw for 505 yards, still the most in any Super Bowl, and lost 41-33 after Brandon Graham’s strip-sack late in the fourth quarter. It was the only sack of the game.

The fine print on Brady’s rings
Why some lists say 2002 to 2021. The NFL season starts in September and its Super Bowl is played the next February. Brady’s first ring belongs to the 2001 season but was won on February 3, 2002.
Lists that use game years (2002, 2004, 2005, 2015, 2017, 2019, 2021) and lists that use seasons (2001, 2003, 2004, 2014, 2016, 2018, 2020) describe the same 7 titles.
More rings than any franchise. The Patriots and Pittsburgh Steelers share the team record with 6 Super Bowl wins each, as of October 2026. Brady’s 7 is more than any of the 32 teams.
Two rings without the MVP trophy. Deion Branch (XXXIX) and Julian Edelman (LIII) were named MVP in the other two wins.
No rings off the field. Brady retired after the 2022 season. He is now Fox’s lead NFL analyst and a minority owner of the Las Vegas Raiders, and neither role has added to his count.
