As long as Belichick is in charge, this will get settled on the field. When the time comes that another player emerges as the player that BB believes will give the team the better chance to win, Brady will then be replaced. This is as it should be.
Garappolo is an intrguing prospect. His mechanics, footwork and (especially) release give him the opportunity to be a pretty good player. What remains to be seen is field vision and decision-making, especially against elite competition in the big games.
The more JG improves, the more he will press Brady and the harder Brady will compete. And, of course, health and longevity are guaranteed to no one, no matter how much avocado ice cream you eat. It's critical for the Patriots to have a viable developmental QB when the starter is 38 years old. Things would be a lot worse if JG were showing signs of being the next Kevin O'Connell.
Having said all of that, the fan in me wants to see Brady continue as the game's premiere QB for years to come.
