The Tampa Bay Buccaneers’ Tom Brady is one of the rare QBs in NFL history that managed to defeat all of the 32 teams in the league. And you can bet there is one team out there that Brady particularly enjoys beating.

While appearing on his podcast Let’s Go!, which he hosts alongside Larry Fitzgerald and Jim Gray, Brady revealed that he always enjoys the most when he gets a win against the New York Giants.

“The team I would love to beat the most is the Giants, there’s no doubt about that because they’ve taken away some really, you know—I’ve always joked with Eli [Manning, the former Giants’ QB] but, yeah, and I think he likes that I bring it up all the time,” Brady said. “So to bring it up again, I do not like losing to those guys, so when we beat them I love that.”

The reason why Tom Brady enjoys beating the Giants is pretty clear. While with the New England Patriots, Brady faced the New York Giants twice in the Super Bowl and lost both times. This included the 2007 NFL season when the Pats were one win away from the perfect season but ended up being denied by the Giants in Super Bowl XLII.

Brady also revealed the team he likes beating the least, with the answer being unsurprising.

“And the team I like to beat the least is obviously the Patriots. Again, those are my guys, man,” said Brady.
