Give Brady Whatever He Wants

What's the benefit of dumping the best player in NFL history? You get to start your rebuild 2 years earlier? That doesn't really matter. How many rebuilds did we start between 1967 and 2000? Do you remember or care when they started? We have lighting in a bottle. You don't give that up to start your search for the 0.00001% chance to find it again a little sooner.

This right here outlines the problem with the way you're thinking and most of the keep brady at all costs crowd. Him being the best player in NFL history has ZERO to do with anything. We would be moving on from a 43 year old QB that has been on a clear steady decline for years. Not a prime tom brady.

Him being the best QB of all time is not a reason to keep him. Not even a tiny reason. You're thinking like an emotional tom brady fan and that's fine but that's not the way belichick is running this team I can tell you that. Nor should he. He is going to do what is best for the team now and long term.

Where do you suggest he might be going? There's a good argument against every prospective landing spot for him outside New England.

He's not going to the Chargers and try teaching offense to Anthony Lynn. He'll be back with the Patriots for a one-year curtain call.
The only negative I see for LA is Anthony Lynn. He should never been hired and he’s a mediocre coach at best. Aside from that, the positives outweigh the negative as Lynn would do whatever Brady wants like what every coach did in Denver for Manning.

Matt Nagy is overrated and runs a high school offense.

Only negative for TEN is it being a small market.

Miami is not an option as they have too many holes.

Indy is a small market.

In the end, I think Brady and AB are a packaged deal assuming AB is cleared.
 
Brady is our only--I repeat, only--chance of winning a SB in the next 2 years. If you think Jarrett Stidham is going to lead this team to the promised land in the next two years, you are deeply delusional.

So again, if you're in a hurry to dump Brady, you're in a hurry to mediocrity. It makes no sense. We have our whole lives to look forward to the draft every year like 31 other teams. There's really no hurry.

Brady and the success of this franchise has been a fluke. This type of success will not happen again for any franchise in a very long time.
 
Why is a small market important?

MIA does indeed have too many holes. Presuming that Brady waits 3 or 4 days into the season, MIA could sign 3-5 top FA's and still have lots of cap room.

Yes, give him whatever he wants and handcuff the organization even more. Fantastic idea.
 
Lol, handcuff them from doing what, going 8-8 with Jarrett Stidham?
 
You don't give him whatever he wants. When has BB ever run a team this way?
 
As long as what Brady has wanted (agreed to) was in the best interests of the patriots (so, the last 20 years).

Good thing you repeated that because it wasn't clear the first time around. What brand of crystal ball do you use? I'd like to get one.

This historic run has created some delusional fans, and they are in for a reality check when Brady leaves. Brady is just a system QB, right? Just plug in 4th round pick Jarrett Stidham and the dynasty keeps right on rolling, right?

1000% correct. Pats are not winning SB any time soon with Stidham. But resigning Brady and having <25 million in cap space will leave them on the outside looking in for the talent Brady needs around him to succeed.
This year with crap talent around him, got mauled by Ravens, 17 measly points against chiefs at home, crap game against Texans and embarrassed by Dolphins, not too mention 13 measly points against Titans at home.

Why would anyone assume that Brady 1 year older with likely an equally porous Oline, no Gronk and questionable O talent...has a any kind of shot at a Super Bowl. Not with Mahomes and LJ in AFC.

So can not win a SB without him and will not win another one with him.

That may be. But it's not a reason to give a 43 year old QB whatever he wants. This is the New England Patriots. Not the Tom Brady Patriots. Giving him whatever he wants will ensure we are in possibile cap hell.

BB can't bring Brady back because of SB 49. Or because of 28-3 or the AFC title game in Arrowhead. BB needs to bring Brady back because he thinks Brady is good enough in 2020.

Essentially, that's what I've been trying to say. This team will be in rebuild mode both organizationally and with player personnel regardless of who's at quarterback, making a deep playoff run unlikely. So, understanding that Brady's twilight has arrived, what is the best course for the future?

As opposed to going 10-6, 12-4 and losing in the first round of the playoffs with Brady. Giving him whatever he wants entails Brady having no targets again. Why is that so hard to figure out? Your selfish thinking is dumb. I’m sorry, but it is. To satisfy your wants, you want Brady to get whatever he wants just to retire here instead of wanting the best for the organization.

Your next screen name should be Forest Gump.

I never stated that the Chargers can't sign players.
No you said the PATRIOTS couldn’t. They have 50 mill of cap room.
Sorry I used “they” like I do with pats fans overlooking that you aren’t one.
 
Nobody posting here knows what the Pats have in Stidham - good or bad. But Brady is not a QB that just led a team to the SB anymore -he is about to be 43 and declining. And players typically decline fast at that age. The chances of winning a SB next year are probably not great at all - no matter which way BB goes. The question is 2-3 years from now.

You've been a fan since 2001. Ring 6 is the perfect name for a bandwagoner

Brady said that he would not give NE a discount. The chargers already have Allen and Wil,hams signed. They need to reup Ekler and Henry and replace Gordon with Dubbins.

I don't have the time to explain everything to you Ring fan.
