Patriots Rumor The Tom Brady rumor thread

[RobertWeathers]

We won't get Howard if Brady goes there.

Why? Ariens froze the kid out last year. Brady doesn't change that.

 

[Zarozzor]

The Buccaneers actually had the 6th greatest run defense of all time according to DVOA. They were behind

2000 Ravens
1991 Eagles
2015 Jets
1998 Chargers
2014 Lions


They also had the 12th best passing defensive DVOA, and 5th overall in defense last season. Winston made their normal numbers look a lot worse than what they were. If they use some draft picks to help the D even more, and shore up the O-line, that would be a really good team with Brady on it. I’m sure he would love throwing to Evans, Godwin, Howard, and Brate.

I can't see Tom going to play in Florida...doesn't have the best track record in that state.

Follow the money

Tampa’s defense was actually really good last year. And that’s even considering how many bad situations Winston put them in.

Since your a Flordia man, how do you think Tom and his family would like living in Tampa Bay?

I could be different since he would be on the opposite side now.

 

[TheRainMaker]

I think Tom having control over the roster is a stretch. I think if Tom stumped for AB Ariens and Licht would take that into account but in terms of years, $ and overall team fit they would still have final say.

Evans, Godwin, AB...then throw in Howard and Brate

He also coached AB for two years.

I was down there for 9 years and there are definitely some nice areas but it is a small market with a crappy fanbase.

This is gonna be weird for a 34 year old male to say, but I'm gonna be dreaming about Bill Goldberg tonight.

They wouldn’t. Tampa is a toilet. No offense to anyone who lives there because God knows Jacksonville isn’t heaven on Earth either.

Tampa's just a hop away from Orlando, though.

Have you been to Orlando lately? If you haven’t, let me save you a trip - don’t go.

Agree, lots of undesirable neighborhoods in Tampa, however, I'm sure the Bradys can afford a beachfront home someplace.

No state income tax has to be enticing for a family with the Brady's income.

Boston is also a toilet...I presume a bunch PatsFans members live there, and look at the excrement coming out of their mouths right now.

I haven't been back to Orlando since I moved north. But Orlando was always a day visit place for me, anyway. There's no way in hell I'd have put up with living there. But I could see the Brady bunch deciding to live somewhere along the travel line between Tampa and Orlando for a couple of years.

Maybe a helicopter ride to practice from Miami? They said they'd do anything for Brady...they could build a helipad near the stadium.

Well I can and also some others.

Yeah real tough choice for Brady there given the Patriots Options including Sanu.

Only here to say “oh snap”.

(Would be interesting to see where posters think is a GOOD place to live)

 

[festy1986]

Brady picking a crazy ****ing time to start caring about money.

It's why I dont buy it. What team hes on is the team HE believes will give him best chance to win.
