I'm not opposed to this idea, but I'll state why I think it won't go down that way.
- Kraft loves the Tominator.
- Brady is the face of the franchise and is very good for the marketing of the Patriots.
- Moss would need to go, too. He's here because of Tom.
- Peyton Manning.
1. Kraft loved the Drewinator just as much.
2. I will concede that. But BB cares more about what puts the team in a winning position than sweatshirt sales. The stadium will sell out either way. And win the SB and the jerseys will sell anyway.
3. I am not sure that if that is 100% true. He is here because he want a ring. He might be okay with the trade if he feels the team can still win. But you might be right. I don't know, you don't know, but BB knows. Lets assume that it is true. Then trade him. We got him for a 4th. I bet we could get a first for him now (talk about growing value). Or better yet trade him to the Raiders for Asomugha. He will go back to being a malcontent, but who cares.
4. I get that. Brady is a game changer, like Peyton and Favre. But I say we go back to playing pre-2007 football. We don't depend on Brady to Moss for a TD 50 times to win a game. If Brady had not gotten injured week 1, but Moss had gone on IR during the KC game, we would probably be sitting in the same 10-6 situation we are now or maybe worse (assuming all the other injuries, problems etc)
