Hyuck
No clue, has a team ever played the SB with 1 QB? Someone back in the early days maybe?
Yeah that local Herald writer probably has it in for the Patriots. That's probably it.Run It Up said:
It's pretty common, but never knowing what you're talking about in regards to the Pats makes the misunderstanding understandable.
Patriots love shipping guys out a year before they have to pay him, so why wouldn't they trade him away? Assuming they don't believe in him as Brady's successor that is.
I don't have any reason why they wouldn't trade him away, that's why I didn't say that.
Because he looked good when he started the first few games of the year and he was a 2nd round pick?
He did look good.
I think he did given the qb landscape. Be surprised if they couldnt get atleast a high 2nd for him.
Brady hasnt really shown any regression yet and Jimmys probably gonna want a big contract and to be the starter. They cant afford to keep both and Jimmy im sure doesnt want to sit around waiting for Brady to retire regardless. Suppose you could move Brady but i very much doubt Kraft lets that happen
I am not advocating dealing him or not dealing him but is very easy to make a case as to why they would deal him...
I think that is a very valid...but how do we know they don't like Jacoby better long-term (or even view Jimmy as a long-term answer...or don't see either as the long-term answer)...if they do than it makes this decision easier (and I have no clue if they do)...
Right, it's hard to know. Plus, for as well as Garoppolo played, he got hurt after like a game and a half, so if a team wants to give a king's ransom to a guy who hasn't learned how to protect himself yet, let him go. The play he got hurt on is a play most good QBs are smart enough to avoid.
Deflategate didn't cost them a thing - it let them get huge trade value without hurting their record. The Patriots are like friggin zombies. Unless you take out the brain (BB) you can't kill them.
Put the pipe down. A 1st isn't going anywhere for him. Best call is for them to just hang onto the QB so in 2018 they can roll with Jimmy G and Jacoby B as their QBs.
Would be surprised if Pats let him go at this point. If Joe Montana and Peyton Manning can get the boot so can Brady. Suspect 2017 is his last in NE. It's hard To find good QBs and you don't give up a decade plus to squeeze one more year out of a 41 year old.
I dunno man - BB may well believe that he could put a potato behind center and get 300 yards out of him.
There is no way short of catastrophic injury that Brady will choose to retire after next season. You have a better chance of getting hit by lightening or an asteroid hitting earth.
Disagree. Brisset looked good until he shredded his thumb ligaments. Then he played that one game and was awful because he had essentially no thumb on his throwing hand. He showed some serious grit playing and younhave to throw out that game.
Not sure about the best outcome being Brady retires after one more year. That's making some big assumptions about both garrapolos level of okay and Brady dropping off
