C.Biscuit97 Posted September 7, 2019 Share Posted September 7, 2019 Just now, RyanC883 said: this is why I am sick of hearing how great Brady is. Year after year the Pats tamper with other teams players (Blount) and give Brady WR’s, RB’s etc. that no one else has. Brees, Rodgers or Wilson would destroy Brady’s performance if they had these QB’s. Huh? Brady has won with guys like Patton, givens, Troy brown, Edelman, journeymen wrs. They win because they are really good. It sucks but it’s the truth. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coach Tuesday Posted September 7, 2019 Share Posted September 7, 2019 Just now, BarleyNY said: So many people ripping on AB. He played everyone. Wonder how quick he head gets straight now. It’ll be a miracle. As I noted, it’s the LeGarrette Blount play with the intermediate trade to the Raiders thrown in as a twist. And he created a blueprint for other NFL players to use - the NBA playbook for sometime now - this will be repeated. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Pats have to clear a bunch of cap space before they can actually sign him. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yup. If teams allow it. The Raiders should have just suspended him indefinitely- or traded him to the Dolphins. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is what having the best qb and coach do for you. And if he acts up, they get rid of him. In the Blount case there were rumors of tampering (especially since he’d already played for them). Same back with Moss intentionally quitting on the Raiders to get moved there. Anyone recall this happening repeatedly with other good teams? Anyone play their way off a team to hook up with Peyton, for example? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So athletes should be good to higher standards than politicians? I’d argue as annoying as AB is, he actually has talent that is hard to replace. Many of these politicians are easily replaceable.

brianthomas Posted September 7, 2019 Share Posted September 7, 2019 If AB wanted to go to New England the whole time, then it all makes sense. Pittsburgh would never trade AB to the Pats. So he goes along with everything & lands in Oakland & then finds a way to get his contract terminated & ends up on New England in the end. With eyes on a championship & playing a pivotal playoff game vs the Steelers to get there. Not tampering per se but a way to dictate where he wanted to play. Seems plausible imo Dude may be a diva but he's not crazy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've just always felt like the whole signing a guy for the gameplan thing was overblown. There's SOMETHING to it, but not to the extent that some believe.
