I understand what you're saying, but I think you misinterpret what I'm trying to say. Id love nothing more then to see Brady win another, maybe even two more rings. If he doesn't retire a patriot, it would truly break my heart. My problem comes with the reality part of things and life. He might be able to play till he's 45, but that doesn't mean he is the best thing for the Franchise. Sadly when Tom retires, things will continue to move on. Let me say this now. I Believe Jimmy G has the natural skill to be very successful if he continues to play in NE. I even think he could win multiple Championships with bill, just like Brady has. Have you seen his pre-season film? Its pretty amazing! Id take him over any other QB in last years draft.
So in 3 years, when we have a Farve-Rodgers situation on our hands, do you still believe Belichick will let it be Bradys choice? Its a scary thought, but a reality we must all face. The only chance the Brady/NE story ends the way we all hope it does, is we win another SB in the next 3 years. I think Brady would be content with 5 rings at 40 (hopefully its 6 or 7).
Brady is my man! However I like winning, and Id like to keep winning. With that being said, I feel like Jimmy G gives us the best chance to continue the success we've had for the past 15 years.
