Is Brady Washed? (1 Viewer)

Is Brady Washed?

Aside from the 4th quarter he wasn't very good last night. And I haven't watched him a lot this season but he downright sucked against a crappy Steelers team.
 
Hes not the same QB he was but hes still a solid QB who Id take over alot of QBs currently in the league. Thats pretty incredible to think about for a 45 year old. Russell Wilson is washed. Brady is in decline but still good enough.
 
I haven't said he sucks or is even bad. Saying he's not a top 10 NFL QB anymore
Yes he is lol.

PFF had him 7 in the league before this week.
You could at least finish the quote before lighting your torch.
Why? I was just responding to your specific point there. I saw where you said he is still better than average.
I haven't said he sucks or is even bad. Saying he's not a top 10 NFL QB anymore, which I also haven't said, at 60 freaking years old* isn't an insult.

I said he isn't as good as his former self. Put down the pitchfork.

*Yes, he's actually 60 years old. Until he produces his long form birth certificate the assumption has to be that he's lying.
 
Out of 35 QB’s rated, he’s 30th in yards per attempt. Dalton looked better for 55 minutes. Sure he came back and won. Pure guts and he’s a competitor. But he’s toast in my eyes.
Has no O-line has to get the ball out quick. He ain't toast.
Similar to the famous George Carlin line, when you think about the average o-line, realize that half the o-lines are worse than that. In other words, Brady isn't the only QB that would be better with better protection but in the real world, building a unit like that and sustaining it through an entire season is a pretty tall order. QBs of Brady's ilk win Superbowls when they have it but it seems to get ugly fast when they don't.
 
I am providing no opinion at all on Brady and am just posting his stats.

YTD: fantasy QB16 based on total points, QB17 based on ppg
Weekly fantasy rankings: 28, 23, 17, 3, 9, 18, 20, 17, 13, 17, 13, 12
ROS fewest points allowed to opposing QBs: SF (4), CIN (5), ARI (31), CAR (11), ATL (23)
 
People are voting with their hearts and not their minds. Brady looks good, the O line is a mess. They will have a home playoff game and most likely win, then face a QB with no playoff experience or Kirk Cousins in the second round. Yeah, I’ll take my chances with Brady and that defense. Wouldn’t surprise me a bit to seem them in the NFC championship game at a minimum.

I'd be surprised if Tampa beat your Cowboys.
 
Totally washed up. Can they win with him? Yes. He needs a lot more help now, not sure he has it. I would love to see someone like Philly beat them by three scores and end it.
 
Not washed...yet. Father Time catches up with everyone eventually.

He's a solid QB still. Declining a tad, yes.

Like those who stuck around a year too long and everyone noticed decline, I hope it doesn't happy to Brady and he can just walk away being the GOAT. It just might not be walking off into the sunset like Elway and Manning did. Brady has plenty of Super Bowl Championships under his belt.
 
Or is it washcasting?

Redd Foxx called and told you to wash your face first, whatever you do.
Redd was good for all kinds of personal advice.

Greatest comedy album of all time. My brother & I used to sneak down to the living room at night & listen to it on headphones.

We woke my dad up laughing - he totally caught us and said, “just don’t listen to the Cheech & Chong records” which of course we did soon thereafter. lol

Foxx was a brilliant comedian. Very underrated since most folks only knew him from Sanford & Son.
 
After all this I’m pretty sure I’m starting Brady this week.

lol

I’ve locked up the playoffs and have a 1 game lead on the 1-seed + all the tiebreakers. A win this week clinched the 1-seed. We only have 1 week of playoffs so no BYE, but the 1-seed gets to pick their playoff opponent, which is huge.

Pray for me. :tebow:

Here's hoping you have a reason for a code 317 after this weekend

I’m probably starting him too. Win and in the Playoffs, lose and go to the toilet bowl and have a chance to get next year’s 1.01 (SF). I won’t tank but it’s quite okay with me if the team underperforms. Of course this will be the week Zonovan knight scores 4 TDs

How do you go from playoff contention to the 1-seed?

The loser bowl rankings determine draft picks? That seems like a horrible system, rife with potential for shenanigans.

Why not use standings?

“communication, self-expression, motivation, spiritual development, inner wisdom and knowledge, intuition, progress, and new beginnings”?

hmm…I’d settle for the 1-seed. :shrug:

He was.

For some random reason, I watched a couple episodes of Sanford and Son a year or so back. Forgot how raw that show could be. Episode where Fred had to go to court. He dropped about 5 N-bombs in the course of 30 seconds or so. Cringe worthy. My memories from watching that as a kid were more of Fred making fun of Lamont and his interactions with Grady, Bubba and Aunt Esther. Sheesh.

TB isn’t winning a playoff game anywhere with that OL.

It’s my least favorite part about that league but 🤷

I’m always fascinated by systems various leagues use. This is among the worst I’ve ever heard of.

What’s to stop anyone from just tanking during the loser bowl?
The team that wins the toilet bowl gets the 1.01. So tanking in the toilet bowl would be dumb.
Oh, ok. Got it.

Still wonky, but not as wonky, as I had assumed.

I would never write off TB in the playoffs. That team is still loaded with talent.
And they will have a home game
TB has scored more than 22 points only once this season. That puts them tied with HOU and DEN. It's unlikely Tampa will be a wildcard, so they will likely be the 4 seed . . . meaning they will play the highest seeded wildcard team. DAL has a game and a half lead on NYG and play the Texans and Jags next while the Giants still have to play the Eagles twice. It's looking like DAL will most likely get the 5 seed. If TB loses to SF this weekend, they would be 3 games behind the Niners for the 3 seed without the tiebreaker (meaning they would have to win out and SF lose out to snag the 3 seed).

Yes, the Bucs already beat the Cowboys, but that was the game Dak got hurt. Dallas has gone on to score 22 or more points in 8 games. A lot could happen between now and a potential DAL/TB playoff matchup, but I think the Bucs will need to score a lot more than they have been to advance through the playoffs. Maybe guys get healthy, and things start clicking offensively, but they won't be able to sleepwalk for 55 minutes against good teams.
