Tom Brady has dominated the NFL for 18 seasons, and few defenses have been able to slow the star quarterback down.
Some teams, like the Miami Dolphins and Denver Broncos, have caused the New England Patriots' veteran pivot to falter on occasion, but most have crumbled before Brady time and time again.
Surprisingly, few teams have fared worse against him than the Pittsburgh Steelers, the AFC's other main powerhouse since the turn of the century.
Here are some ridiculous Brady stats from his 12 career games (including playoffs) against Pittsburgh ahead of their key conference matchup Sunday:
4465: The last time the Steelers intercepted Brady was Sept. 9, 2005 - a span of 4,465 days. He has gone seven (!) games against Pittsburgh without a pick.
13.5: The Brady-led Patriots haven't just beaten the Steelers, they've routinely annihilated them, producing an average margin of victory of nearly two touchdowns in 10 wins over the Steelers.
39: If you expand Brady's stats to a 16-game sample, his 39 touchdowns would be tied for the second-best mark of his career, behind only his then-record-setting 2007 season.
3: A passer rating over 100 is considered exemplary. Brady has failed to reach that mark just three times in 12 games. In six of his nine 100-plus passer rating games, he eclipsed the 120 mark, too.
294.3: Drew Brees owns five 5,000-yard seasons, but his 283.3 career passing yards per game average still falls short of Brady's average when facing Pittsburgh.
9.6: Brady has thrown 29 touchdowns with just three interceptions, giving him a touchdown-to-interception ratio that's more than triple his career mark of 3.06 (second best all-time).
12: Brady's career passer rating (115) against the Steelers is so good he could throw 12 straight interceptions before his rating dipped below 100.
71.60: The only thing more impressive than Brady's completion percentage in regular-season games against Pittsburgh (69.59) is his completion percentage in postseason contests.
