It's easy, and only takes a few moments.I'm all for it, but I think that Tom has a lot of things that he wants to do outside football, he's not like Peyton Manning who is more Farve like and will play until they kick him out of the league or his body falls apart.
i'm praying for a good five years with at least 2 more superbowls, just so he can have the record for the most
Screw that let's get greedy - FOUR more in SIX years - total of 7 rings in 12 years sounds about right.
I agree. Of course, I don't play golf with TB but my reading is that he is a balanced guy for whom football is very important but not the overriding obsession it is for PM. He won't hang on if he's on the downslope.
I think that by 2012 the FO gets more serious on looking for a QB of the future - at 34 at that time, Brady should start to decline in his talent,hopefully slowly at that.
that means 3 more years of hec for us...but then again, Peyton has 2 years left.
I think it just mainly depends on how good the O-line is
Based on his skillset, he could be competitive for another decade if he so chooses. That's a big if though. I say 7 years. Retires at 38. Hoenstly, I'd peg Manning for about the same as well. Knock on wood.
this is a tough thread for me to read. it brings back the last two years, when TB was, as he remains today, at the peak of his talent.
in one of those years, the pats' Front Office, for whatever reasons that we can debate forever, stripped him of his best weapons and he still almost got it done, with the team running out of steam in the second half of that game in indy we all want to forget. last year, he had the weapons but, for reasons that have been debated for hundreds of hours out here, it didn't happen in Arizona.
that's easily two more rings he might have had with just a few things breaking differently, some in his control, many not. but the nfl is a tough place to win and every season has its "woulda, shoulda, coulda" teams. The mountain that will loom before the pats and 31 other teams next week is an incredibly difficult one to climb, as BB points out every year at just about this time.
I don't know what the next three or four years of his career at the peak of his powers will bring, but, personally, I don't ask anything else of him. he's brought it all and he's given it all. another trophy would be incredibly satisfying, but Tom Brady has nothing else to prove.
Brett Favre and Jeff Garcia just put up Pro-Bowl seasons at ages 38 and 37 respectively.
There's nothing at this moment that would lead me to believe Brady will not also have the longevity, seeing how he has the third longest active QB start streak in the league right now if I recall.
very well stated man.
Thanks, and welcome to the Board. We start talking about a lot more interesting stuff once Training Camp begins.:eat3:
