Skip Bayless Has Big Problem With Tom Brady’s Spot On ‘NFL Top 100’ List

The “Top 100 Players” list has just been revealed ahead of the 2019 season and Tom Brady, who earned the top spot in 2018, ranked No. 6 even though he led the New England Patriots to a sixth Super Bowl title last season.

Skip Bayless has decided to share his thoughts on that and he strongly disagrees. Thursday, on FS1’s “Undisputed,” Bayless stated that Brady deserved to retain his No. 1 ranking instead of falling behind Aaron Donald, Drew Brees, Khalil Mack, Patrick Mahomes and Todd Gurley.

“Patrick Mahomes is just not better than Tom Brady right here, right now,” Bayless said. “We saw one year — one starting year — in which the NFL did not have the offseason to try to figure out what are the kid’s weaknesses, right?

“I’m sorry, (Brady’s) just better,” Bayless added. “He’s smarter, he’s more efficient, he’s a better leader and his team beat Mahomes’ team (in the 2018 regular season and the AFC Championship Game). I’m sorry, he beat him twice.”

Shannon Sharpe vehemently disagreed with Bayless, but that’s no surprise considering his reputation as a Patriots hater. But Sharpe actually be right regarding Mahomes’ numbers which were far better than Brady’s last season, even though the Patriots defeated the Chiefs during the regular season and in the AFC Championship Game and these particular rankings aren’t supposed to reflect lifetime achievements.
