Kevin C. Cox/Getty ImagesTom Brady is basically synonymous with football's ultimate prize, the Vince Lombardi Trophy. He's the only quarterback to have hoisted the iconic hardware a staggering seven times.

But Brady made it to the big stage 10 times and won seven of them, six with the Patriots and one with the Buccaneers. Here's a look back at most of his best moments with the Lombardi.
