Tell me who they would have lost to with Hoyer at QB.

 

 

Steelers--without Brady's 373 yards  and 3 TDs, the Steelers don't pass almost 50 times.  They were down 3 TDs by halftime.  Brady put that game away quick.

 

Probably the Bills beat them as well.  Hoyer would have been destroyed.

Brady leaves the Pats. Beane and McD bring

him in to talk about signing him. They sit him down to talk business but in come Jordan Phillips and Ed Oliver with brass knuckles. Beane and McD smile at each other, calmly get up and walk out of the room closing the door behind them.  We never hear from Tom again.

Well, I guess we’ll never know, but they absolutely crushed the Steelers, and Brady put up all of 10 points and less than 200 yards total offense against the Bills.  It’s more likely than not that they are undefeated even without Brady.

Can't just look at his stats against Buffalo. He gets the ball out so quick, no other qb especially Stidham is going to make those quick reads, or just dump the ball off to avoid sacks or worse as quickly as Brady does. I don't see the Patriots beating Buffalo in that game with Stidham starting.

Join his boyhood team , the Niners?

To backup Jimmy G? I don't think so, I think Brady retires assuming they win another Super Bowl unless he and BB want to play another year or two so Brady can own all the QB records.

Hoyer's in Indy, the Patriots' backup QB is rookie Jarrett Stidham.

Titans with old buddy Vrabel.

That be interesting pairing as the Titans do have an improving defense and WR core slightly better than what New England has and Henry is an okay RB and they do have Dion Lewis who played well when healthy in New England.

4 or 5 years back their defense was pretty bad.  If it had been better likely he'd have a couple more SB wins.

 

Could see him kind of doing a Peyton Manning type move and go to a team a QB away from winning the SB, but who is that team?  Indy, Bears, or Minn??

 

Hmmmm.  Denver?

The system + Defense is what's keeping him TB12 this season.  If he had to start over I suspect it would be quite ugly, unless a bunch of offensive coaches and players went with him.

 

Don't forget Coach Scar.  I wish that guy would re-retire.  HOW I wish that.

What Happened to the Broncos after Manning left? While He didn't put up the numbers we are used to, he still played quarterback with the same wisdom he normally had. He didn't make mistakes that cost his team. The Patriots are not set up right now to obtain a QB with that kind of discipline next year, should Brady leave.

I think that would be hilarious but I think it's far more likely that he's just becoming aware that this should be his last season.

It's anyone's guess what the Pats would do at the position if Brady were to hang 'em up after this year.  They would probably try to bring in a vet like Teddy Bridgewater and draft someone.  And we don't really know how they feel about Stidham.  What's certain is that they will still be a very tough team to beat.

I don’t buy it now and I didn’t buy it last night. This is based on what? Brady is selling his house. He is from Cali, he doesn’t want to live in NE. They have enough money to live anywhere they want. Houses like his don’t sell overnight.

Don’t see it. What would be the point?

I'm assuming Tom Brady despite his age would still be worth something on the trading block.

 

Brady would do it for the team.

I actually think Belichick would probably kind of like it if Brady forced his way out. It would give BB a chance to win without Tom Brady and show he was more responsible for their dynasty than Brady was. 

 

And Brady isn’t looking nearly as dangerous as in years past. He could potentially struggle quite a bit if he leaves that NE system he’s been in his entire career.

Of course it takes both but last year and this year leaves no doubt Bellichick is the best coach. The 11-5 season without Brady was an indication but still back then #12 was putting up record numbers.

Unlikely, he will probably be a turd that runs the "company" into the ground.

With any other father / son coaching duo, I might agree.  With BB / SB, any bad habits or lazy traits of the son were probably eliminated by the dark side of the Force.

In light of the unfounded rumour, the league has awarded three anticipatory and compensatory draft picks to the New England Patriots.  No refunds.

Unless Daniel Jones improves, Brady's best choice would be the NY Giants, who can say they are going back to their original plan to let Jones sit & learn.  Brady is not going to a smaller market than Boston, he'll only leave for a big city.  Brady already lives part time in NYC.  If his future plans are for show biz or in the sports media NY is the place for him since there are no QB openings in California.

This is BS, not a chance he wants to retire as a loser.

I agree. There's something sketchy about all of this, kinda like some on the dl Asian massage parlor hand j*b.
