Luke Skywalker
Tom Brady

“My name is Luke Skywalker. I’m here to rescue you.”
“You’re who?”

Pats fans were asking the same question when Brady, a sixth-round draft pick, replaced the injured Drew Bledsoe in 2001. Luke was also a hidden gem, stashed away on the planet of Tatooine. Both Brady and Luke are unselfish, and both rely heavily on their mentors, Bill Belichick and Yoda. Saving the galaxy beats three Super Bowls. But Brady dates actress Bridget Moynihan, while all Luke got was a kiss from Leia.
