I had no doubt he would hit that 57 yarder and I mean when you can start chalking up 3 when you get to the 40 yard line that's ridiculous. I realize it's not a popular opinion but special teams plays and field goals used to provide scoring opportunities in a boring defensive era...........now they feel out of place, IMO.

The 2 losers at the semi-final stage play each other for 3rd place. I'm not sure why we don't have that, as it's 1 more chance for 1 more game, 1 more batch of ticket sales, 3.25 more hours of TV ad revenue, etc., etc., etc. etc. That and ads on the players uniforms are 2 revenue streams the NFL has seemingly forgotten about.

He's got a beautiful wife and family, sure, but you don't hear him get all Kyle-Williams-like claiming he wants to spend more time watching his kids grow up. His wife is busy with her own career, so you don't hear her saying she wants him around more. He has no other known hobbies, hell he probably doesn't even pick out his own clothes. He's as dull as rocks (quick, tell your favorite Tom Brady non-football related story -- too late, there are none). He'll keep playing until defenses finally realize that they need to blanket his receivers off the line, and force him to use his aging arm to get the ball further down the field. So, in other words, he's never going to retire. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well...not so fast...they have the luxury of a franchise QB who takes well below market value because he has some side business deal with Kraft and his wife makes 5 times what he makes anyway...no other team in the NFL has this luxury for this long of a time period... I mean how do you even plan for that? Have your QB marry some super rich and famous supermodel and then start a side business where him and the owner have a "wink and nod" agreement in place, likely for some huge amount of money after he retires? Its like you couldn't even write this if you tried. The really good teams with their QBs on rookie contracts have it better but only for a few years and then they have to pay out the nose for them...Patriots have basically had "rent control" in place with their QB like they are a NYC landlord...

You can make excuses if you want as to why they constantly win. It doesn't matter what others think because their record is their record. Your rationalization is your rationalization. The Colts had Peyton, and the Packers had Favre and Rodgers. Combined how many SBs do they have compared to Brady and the Pats?

If we are to assume that Brady offers no advantage over other absolutely top flight QBs like Rodgers or Peyton Maning, and if we are to assume that the Patriots organization is not engaged in some type of systemic cheating scheme giving them an advantage, the only thing left to explain the Patriots' phenomenal success is Bill B. He may be more important to that franchise over the years than Brady. Which is ironic, as a lot of folks here will tell you the only reason he is thought of as "good" is because he has Brady. He is the GM and coach and has total control over shaping what New England is about as a football team. He also never gets good draft slots and has huge turnover on both sides of the ball all the time...and yet he stays at the top year after year. It's incredible. Try to come up with a list of "famous Patriots" whose careers will be associated exclusively with NE during this huge win streak of theirs...there are a few names, certainly Gronk and a maybe a few others, but it's mostly Brady, Bellichick, and whoever else is playing for them at the moment. BB is the smartest/best football coach ever. At least that's my conclusion Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The salary cap was designed to keep the more well to do owners from in theory buying championships. While I believe that Bill B has a lot to do with the Pats success circumventing the salary cap is in poor sportsmanship. While we can't prove that Kraft is circumventing the cap we also can't prove that he is not. I don't believe that the Pats would have the same success without Brady that they would have with him. Of course if Bill B sticks around several more years with a new QB and wins then that would be a big statement as to who deserves most of the credit.

Hope he has the personnel he needs to execute his plan to stop Brady. I wouldn't count the Rams out so quickly. A Wade-coached defense almost knocked the Bills out of the 1991 playoffs - when the Bills were running the K-gun and were an offensive juggernaut. The final score was a 10-7 Bills victory, but the Broncos defense sure made them earn it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even if you prorate Brady's contract over three years to make the 30 million bonus look dramatic that is likely many millions under his value if he hit the open market. If Brady were 36 years old in 2019 being dumped in a rebuild by his old team his achievements to age 35 would make him worth considerably more than 30 million per year depending how you structure salary and bonus. I would venture a guess that if Snyder orJones were in the market at that point that Brady at 36 would command a contract of over 40 million dollars per year. I think that Khan (Jacksonville), Ross (Miami), or the late Paul Allen would be there knocking on Brady's door if he could be had at an amount a little under 40 million. Jerry Jones dream scenario is Brady comes along at a time when the Cowboys have most of their starting 22 under easy to digest contracts for the next few years that he would even go 45 million per year on Brady if it meant 4 SB appearances. It would behoove Jurrah to also buy McDaniels or some other NE flunky to make sure Brady's transition is smooth. Just my opinion.
