Patriots team owner Robert Kraft was at the MusiCares Gala alongside friend Michael Rubin to present Jon Bon Jovi with the Person the Year award. He weighed in on the comparisons with Fox News Digital on the red carpet.
"They’re both off the charts. I had a personal relationship and great love for Tom Brady," Kraft said. "I think if Patrick is pretty special, and he can evolve and sustain the way Tom did – it looks like he’s on the path – that’s great.

Should Mahomes and the Chiefs find a way to win a Super Bowl over the 49ers, it would be his third title in seven seasons. Brady also won three rings in seven seasons. He didn’t win his fourth until the 2014 season.
