Tom Brady to TB - 2Yrs, $50M all gtd no trade clause


Recommended Posts

Brady to Tampa?  That's WAY cheaper than my plan where I had the Bills paying him to sit on our Bench for the next season, guaranteeing our path to the Division, Playoffs, and Super Bowl. Now at least we won't see him until we meet in early February!

Um, excuse me.  What kind of car do you drive?

 

 

 

 

Honestly, I don’t remember.  It was an online newspaper from 4 hours ago but I’m not going to hunt for it.  It was quality enough to make me believe it was probably going to happen.  However, so much time has passed, who knows?

I wonder if the Patriots will call up the Indianapolis Colts to see if they can get Jacoby Brissett back from the Colts. It would be a good fit, a guy who is familiar with their system, has starting experience in the NFL and is now a backup in Indianapolis

I think that oversells Bucs defense by a ton. They were in a lot of weird games where the offense would put them in terrible spots for sure, but the only measurable stat (DVOA doesn't qualify as such) they excelled at was run defense and YPA. You can't give up the 4th most points in the league and get called the 2nd best defense in my book.

A ridiculous number of winston pick sixes (And near-pick sixes that placed the opponent in the red zone) added to that total. It totally skews the points allowed number.

Depends who their QB is going to be. If Belichick ends up signing Dalton, Or some  cheap no name then I can see more than just Edelman retiring or wanting off the team

Well who else is in Tampa? They don’t have a RB their O line is suspect at best and their defense is shaky as well. Technically Evans, Godwin and Howard are their main weapons. Plus he’s not playing in the Belichick system anymore. He’s gonna get exposed

 

That Offense was 3rd in scoring, with an incompetent QB.  Their WR trio ism probably the best in the NFL.  They had more rushing TDs than the Bills.

Huh?  Brady doesn't beat the opposing offense.  He plays against the opposing defense.  

 

His job has nothing to do with opposing offensive schemes.  This comment makes no sense.  

 

 

He's seen it all for 2 decades.  It's ridiculous to suggest he couldn't learn a different system.  He has seen every variation of every system.

Wow Tampa currently has the 5th highest Super Bowl odds in Vegas

That's hilarious. 82 year old Brady is not going to change the fate of that team much.

Winston may be incompetent overall, but he throws the ball all over the field. I would be surprised if Tom Brady is anywhere near as reckless as Winston. Their passing offense will likely decline, but maybe that's a good thing for them overall.

Just looked it up. Winston set the NFL record last season for pick-sixes: an unbelievable seven. He also had two strip sacks returned for TDs. That is 63 points alone (!!!), and the team gave up 449 total. That doesn’t factor in effects of the other 23 picks, many of which put the opponent in excellent scoring position.

Look, I agree that he could learn a different system with few problems, but that has nothing to do with sitting on the sidelines and watching the opposing team's offense for 2 decades.  

 

I mean, how much of that time do you think he's sitting there studying the opposing team's offense and NOT the opposing team's defense?  

 

As I said, I agree with you but your supporting argument is ridiculous.

Ariens might be the preeminent QB whisperer in the NFL. while Brady might be in decline, he is going to do no worse than he did last year.

So does the 21 dropped interceptions he reportedly had. Could have been much worse. ;)

I’m not so sure about that my friend. My eyes saw a significant decline in Tom Brady last season....in a system that relies on short, timing patterns. Arians system seems to like to push the ball down field.

 

I think Brady is done and Arians will also be gone after this gigantic blunder of bringing in a QB that is going to be in his mid 40’s.

 

I would like to add that I could see Brady taking the night to think things over and then retiring tomorrow.

i agree, Brady's play dropped significantly. he saw more ghosts than ever before.

 

should make for an interesting year, Beast. let's hope it gets to play out.

The reactions on the Pats boards really makes you realize how different their reality has been than ours.  Some of the younger fans think winning is just the way, regardless, and are wondering who the next QB to lead them to Superbowls will be.

 

Some of the other fans wrote that they're actually crying. Which is kind of fun to read.

 

BB gone in the next few years, and that team will be in our rearview for awhile.
