Default Brady will be 34 next season, how many more years as an elite QB?

Hopefully he can be a Brett Favre/Elway type of guy.

It's promising that statistically, his best 3 seasons were his last 3. Though the playoffs are a completely different story...

Damn, Peyton will be turning 35 this year. Do you guys think he will last any longer than Brady?

Brady will be 34, but you have to remember he's only really played 9 years in the NFL. And those have been relatively good times.

Aside from his knee, he hasn't been knocked around too much. I see him putting up good numbers till 38.

As long as his has a good o-line, 4 more el primo years.

If there are more games like yesterday than not, he'll be done by 2014.

Brady might have a career as a great QB who could have been the greatest had it not been for the second half of his career.These playoffs loses are not helping him.

No idea, but I'm definitely not banking on 7+. Enough guys have played at a high level into their late 30s that I think that that's plenty realistic. It all depends on how good a job the line does of protecting him, really, which is one of many reasons why I think that's by far the biggest hole that needs addressing this offseason.
