There's only so much avocado and HGH Brady can take until time becomes the great equalizer - I think his decline will come much faster than people think Time gets everyone, but Favre was quoted this week making an interesting point. When he retired (the second time), he could still make every NFL throw, but his body just couldn't take the hits anymore. I think that may end up being what gets Brady. His throwing ability isn't likely going away, but how much punishment can his body continue to take? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thrivefourfive Posted February 5, 2018 Share Posted February 5, 2018 Kraft backed the wrong pony in this one. Belichick is more his rival, so he's the one that Kraft sees as a threat that must be eliminated. Thing is Kraft, Bill, and Brady are all on the decline. But Belichick can make the playoffs in his sleep until he's 75. Brady will be retired in 2 years. Strange things happen in NE over the past 18 years for sure. Kraft let Belichick cheat to win. I'm sure that complicates their relationship too. Bill coached this Super Bowl like he it was his last game, and he just wanted to enjoy the two weeks. The play choices and the execution of those ****ty plays was embarrassing to the Patriots. Jimmy G's trade sealed Kraft/Belichick's fate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bradys greatness aggravates me to no end and certainly time will eventually catch up, but what makes you think it's coming so fast? How he played last night. Yes, he threw for a super-amazing 500 net passing yards and 3 TD. But he only completed 57% of his passes, and a bunch of the incompletions were throws he would have made like clockwork 2 years ago. 57% completions for Brady is well below his usual standard. It's been glimpses during the season too. During 2014-2016, Brady hasn't had a single game where he threw for <50% completions. This year, he had 2. Belichick has had a career of spotting when players are starting to decline, based on subtle things, and moving on to a young guy in the wings while the rest of the league is "why are they letting him go, he's really good!" If the rumors are true that Belichick wanted to trade Brady and keep Garappolo, it's because while Brady is still very good, Belichick sees the subtle signs of impending fall-off. 24 minutes ago, Mr. WEO said: NE was 29th in yards given up going into the game.

macaroni Posted February 5, 2018 Share Posted February 5, 2018 My bold predictions; Belichick will retire ... I still think there is something rotten in the organization trading away #2 & #3 QB this season and I'm thinking it was a Belichick/Brady/Kraft power struggle Brady comes back next year ... he has stated that he wants to keep playing until he sucks ... he didn't suck last night ... and he won his power struggle Gronk comes back next year ... his "quote" was a quote from a player who played 18 games, his body is beat up and tired, and he was disappointed losing a game that he felt they should have won. McDaniels stiffs the Colts and comes back to the Pats* to take over as head coach ... There's been lots of "buzz" about Patricia taking over the Lions ... but nothing really concrete about McDaniels finalizing a deal with the Colts.

May Day 10 Posted February 5, 2018 Share Posted February 5, 2018 I dont think Belichick is competing for influence.

Jerome007 Posted February 5, 2018 Share Posted February 5, 2018 Ha ha. You guys are pathetic at times. Maybe those media **** rumors are true, but most likely, just over emphasized. I hope I'm not alone to wish the Bills beat the Hoodie-Brady combo while they are still strong, and not because Father Time or another outside reason takes them down. THAT will happen for sure. The best revenge is still to best them. I was one that was thrilled when Clown Rex wanted Brady for that 2nd game a few years back... So OK, he got his wish and it turned out real bad ha ha, but I prefer that attitude to just waiting that the beatings stop because of XYZ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
