While Tom Brady’s glorious playing days are behind him, he recalls which NFL stadium he enjoyed playing in most throughout his legendary career.
After 23 seasons in the NFL, Brady has played in every stadium in the league. However, not all left the same impression whenever he traveled with his team on enemy territory.
In a recent appearance on NFL On Fox’s YouTube channel, Brady revealed 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 division rival; it felt like football weather all the time,’ Brady shared.
‘It was challenging, it was rainy, it was wet, it was windy, it was cold. The games always meant something, and we found a way to overcome it.’
Brady played at Highmark Stadium 18 times and won 16 meetings in Upstate New York. Overall, Brady is 33-3 against the Bills.

The seven-time Super Bowl champion also cited how Buffalo was just a 90-minute flight away from Foxborough while he was with the Patriots.
Additionally, he mentioned how the Bills fans added to why he favored Highmark over other NFL venues.
‘I loved going to Buffalo because it was a quick flight,’ Brady revealed. ‘They have incredible fans in Buffalo. Every time you would drive into the stadium, it was like the craziest environment from 9am on. Those fans know how to get rocking.
The only stadium that has one-up over Brady is Lumen Field in Seattle. The future hall-of-famer is 0-1 on the road against the Seahawks.
Nonetheless, Brady had an ornamented career that saw him win 251 regular season and 35 playoff games before hanging up his cleats.
Brady spent a huge fraction of his playing days with New England, where he won his first six rings. He shifted gears toward Tampa Bay and won a seventh title with the Buccaneers before calling it quits.
Since retirement, Brady became a part-owner of the Las Vegas Raiders and the lead analyst for Fox Sports.
