Mr. WEO Posted February 6, 2017 Share Posted February 6, 2017 I know, this board is quite sickening right now. I can't dispute the Pats results either. I'm just personally not in any mood to write about how amazing the Pats franchise is. Apparently not everyone share my sentiment. The refs always do in the Super Bowl. Remember the Giants games? It's just the other 18 games he plays you're not allowed to breathe on him. Do you remember some of the insane roughing the passer penalties we've been charged with against Brady over the years? Did you watch the AFCC game last year? Denver pummeled him. "Over the years" Fitz drew a higher rate of RTP flags than Brady. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheFunPolice Posted February 6, 2017 Share Posted February 6, 2017 (edited) An all-time great team still at the top of their powers= a chance for someone to make a name for themselves. Who has it in them? The Patriots are our generation's 49ers (5 Super Bowl titles). Look at the 49ers now. Other than a few years with Harbaugh they have been a joke since Montana and Young left. These things go in cycles. I remember thinking the 49ers would never stop winning. Dallas also had a little run in there, which probably stopped them from getting 6 or 7. Who's next? Anybody?

Dr.Sack Posted February 6, 2017 Share Posted February 6, 2017 (edited) Why are you here? Not trying to be a jerk. Seriously, why would you want to come on a bills board? Just curious.They come here because they know their legacy is tainted. Imagine if Norwood made the winning SB kick only to find out the Bills had tampered with the ball and that it was under-inflated? Hell on a side note, I mean we all saw Parcells call a TO, start screaming at head official Jerry Seaman, in that time could a harder ball been swapped out? I'm curious to know the plight of the ball. Have we had a chance to investigate the PSI to ensure Belichick & Parcells didn't over-inflate it? We live in a world where almost everyone cheats. We buy into conspiracy theories because of the blatant evidence that comes up every day. Maybe someday Wikileaks will hack a Patriots email or server and uncover a wealth of knowledge dating back to the 2000 SpyGate. Goodell ordered the evidence be burned at Foxboro so we'll never know to what extent the Patriots cheating mechanism favored them. I find it curious though that with Matt Cassel they go 11-5, if Brady is the GOAT. Manning goes down and the Colts went 1-15.

DriveFor1Outta5 Posted February 6, 2017 Share Posted February 6, 2017 Did you watch the AFCC game last year? Denver pummeled him. "Over the years" Fitz drew a higher rate of RTP flags than Brady. Fair enough. I'll change my statement to being you can't touch him in the regular season. Exceptions seem to be made to this rule when the Pats are playing other contenders such as the Steelers or Broncos in recent seasons. I'm not questioning Brady's greatness. I'm just saying he is definitely protected by refs. I've felt like never watching the NFL again after some of the penalties we've been flagged for against Brady over the years.

Jauronimo Posted February 6, 2017 Share Posted February 6, 2017 I think this most recent super bowl hurts Brady's legacy. This is his second super bowl win where the other team lost the game more than he won it. In a few years, no one will remember that Brady and Belichek set records. They'll remember the Falcons and Seahawks choking the game away. Kinda like how no one outside of the 716/585 even remembers who the Bills played in Super Bowl XXV. They just remember the Bills and wide right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brady was in a lose-lose situation. Win the SB, Falcons choke job. Lose the SB, 4-3 drops him squarely below Montana even if he wins 4 more.

PromoTheRobot Posted February 6, 2017 Share Posted February 6, 2017 You think brady is juiced? I don't know, he isn't jacked at all and he is known to take ridiculous care of his body. He also has the best work ethic in the league. I wouldn't be shocked if he was juiced up, but I would be a bit surprised He's not juiced on body building crap but high tech youth extension. QBs in the NFL don't play at his level at his age without some secret sauce. He's still the best QB ever though. I just think he found the fountain of youth in some test tube.

Dragonborn10 Posted February 6, 2017 Share Posted February 6, 2017 How many times were Brady and Ryan "touched" last night? How many flags were thrown as a result. This continues to be the dumbest comment people make about the good old days vs today. Agreed. Brady got sacked five times, hit other times. And they were decent shots by 300 lb DTs. The main difference between old and current is the defensive holding call. All three against Atlanta were valid calls now but probably none of them are made pre-Belichick.

Gugny Posted February 6, 2017 Share Posted February 6, 2017 How anybody could say Brady is the greatest quarterback every is beyond me. He is the greatest quarterback in the modern era of football where you can't touch the quarterback without drawing a flag, where you can't touch a receiver beyond 5 yards without drawing a flag. Place Brady back in the day of Elway, Kelly, Marino, Montana, etc. and lets see what kind of numbers he puts up. You are not too legit to quit. So please do it.

I would have bet everything I own on Brady going right down the field and scoring the final drive of the 4th and opening drive of OT. I'm sure I'm not alone in that type of thinking. How many QB's in history would you expect that from. In my lifetime, maybe Montana, but that's it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So in 15 years what will be remembered is the Pats came back from 25 points down and won the SB! No one will remember a bad play call here or there, now had say the Falcons thrown an INT in the end zone at the end of the game or missed a last second FG you may be right but this will go down as an epic comeback.

He's better than Montana in my opinion. Part of that comes from watching Montana's skills deteriorate at the end of his career, which happens to everyone eventually, but hasn't happened to Brady yet. It will be interesting if we ever get to see him play with diminished skills. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sidbuff Posted February 6, 2017 Share Posted February 6, 2017 He has his rings and has broken records - he has set his legacy in the league (even though the Patsies did cheat here and there), he should ride off in the sunset and retire now. That way our Bills can rise up lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BADOLBILZ Posted February 6, 2017 Share Posted February 6, 2017 I don't want him to retire.......I want the Bills to retire him on the turf in "The Hole That Ralph Dug" or whatever we are calling Rich Stadium now. Like Montana's head bouncing off the turf in 1993 AFC Championship.......knocking him senseless and effectively ending his last real chance at another SB with a rousing headache. Or ending the hated Don Shula's coaching career with 353 yards rushing in a blowout playoff game! We have gotten closure before and we will get a chance each of the next couple seasons at least.
