Sure, but there isn't an exact date to which father time adheres. Y'all are selling Brady too short.
I agree. You never want to underestimate Tom Brady. But the troubling thing about father time (aside from being inevitable) is that it often strikes precipitously, without warning.
In a short span of time, QBs can go from playing at elite, even historic levels, to seeing their body deteriorate and their skill decline. Recently, Peyton Manning went from throwing 55 touchdowns and passing for 5,0000+ yards, to becoming a former shell of himself in just over a year.
Granted, much of that decline was the accumulation of injuries Manning had suffered. Whereas Brady takes exceptional care of his health and has an intense dietary, fitness program to keep him in shape.
But as much as he might try, I think Brady will succumb to the physical toll of a violent, contact sport like football - and it might happen sooner than we think.
