As Tom Brady’s glorious playing days are behind him, he remembers which NFL stadium he loved most playing in during his storied career.
After 23 seasons in the NFL, Brady has played in every stadium in the league. However, not everyone left the same impression when traveling with their team through enemy territory.
In a recent appearance on the NFL On Fox YouTube channel, Brady revealed that the away stadium he felt most comfortable in was the home of the Buffalo Bills – Highmark Stadium.
‘We had a lot of success there. So there were a lot of big games; they were a tough divisional rival; it felt like football weather the whole time,” Brady said.
‘It was a challenge, it was raining, it was wet, it was windy, it was cold. The games always meant something, and we found a way to overcome that.”
Brady played 18 times at Highmark Stadium and won 16 meetings in Upstate New York. Overall, Brady is 33-3 against the Bills.

The seven-time Super Bowl champion also mentioned that Buffalo was only 90 minutes away from Foxborough while he was with the Patriots.
Additionally, he talked about how the Bills fans contributed to why he chose Highmark over other NFL locations.
“I liked going to Buffalo because it was a quick getaway,” Brady revealed. “They have great fans in Buffalo. Every time you drove into the stadium it was the craziest environment from 9am onwards. Those fans know how to rock.
The only stadium that has an edge over Brady is Lumen Field in Seattle. The future Hall-of-Famer is 0-1 on the road against the Seahawks.
Nevertheless, Brady had a graceful career in which he won 251 regular season games and 35 playoff games before hanging up his cleats.
Brady spent much of his playing days with New England, where he won his first six rings. He switched to Tampa Bay and won a seventh title with the Buccaneers before retiring.
Since his retirement, Brady became part owner of the Las Vegas Raiders and the lead analyst for Fox Sports.
