It's easy, and only takes a few moments.Umm I answered the question Mr I Will Just Make Personal Attacks On People Because I Cannot Defend My Position.In other words, you're too gutless to answer the question. Unsurprising.
Wait, are you seriously saying we should be more like Browns fans.I've watched this week as many posters on this board have essentially said they would be fine with getting rid of Brady to keep Garoppolo while others are basically requesting him to retire and get out of JAGs way.
When belichick benched and cut Kosar, who had nothing left, Browns fans wanted to lynch him.
How can it be that less than 4 months after Brady played the greatest SB ever by a QB (after being the best QB in the NFL all season) to win his record 5th SB fans are almost asking Belichick to dump him?
And btw I answered it in greater detail than any opinion I have ever seen you answer on this board.In other words, you're too gutless to answer the question. Unsurprising.
Are you forgetting all the dropped passes, the fumble, the bad pass protection, and the crappy defense? The entire team was bad during the first three quarters of the SB.Through 3 Quarters of the SuperBowl, Brady looked like he was in heavy decline,including a Pick Six. 'He reached back and performed well as the Defense constantly kept giving him the ball in the late 3rd and 4th Quarter of SB LI.
That is typical of how a QB declines. Good and Bad play until the bad vastly outnumbers the good intervals.
Not sure where I said we should behave like browns fans, nice teach though.Wait, are you seriously saying we should be more like Browns fans.
You mean they guys who drove off Paul Brown? You mean the guys who saw Belichick bring them to the playoffs, win, go 2-1 then get team move announced, go 1-13 and decide he was the problem? We need to be more like them?
You might want to rethink that position, Mr. Borges.
I think the best scenario is Bruschi or Brown. Second place is Vince Wilfork. unfortunately Unitas on the Chargers, or even Montana on the Chiefs is in play.There will come a time when Brady's skills will erode, to the point he will need to be replaced.
Nobody knows when that day will come; right now it is pure speculation.
If Brady does not recognize it when that day arrives, Belichick will pull him aside and let him know. The end of Tedy Brushi's career would be a good comparable.
In the meantime, based on Brady's performance in the most reason, he is still the better choice for the 2017 season. One can debate on what the best long term plan may be, but I do not see how there is even a question on what is best for this upcoming season.
Need to be or strive to be?When I first became a fan, they were the Boston Patriots. I stayed a fan through any number of lean years and, of course, through the present unbelievably good era. Things will get tough again, I imagine, and I'll go back to hoping for a little improvement here, a little light at the end of the tunnel there. If you feel a need to be on top all the time, I don't really think you have what it takes to be a fan, as I understand the term.
1) Where I got the Browns fans bit was the team that Kosar played for. You think I just made that up out of thin air - no it was summing up your position. If you don't see Kosar fans were Browns fans, I can't help you, Mr. Borges.Not sure where I said we should behave like browns fans, nice teach though.
If you don't find it disgusting that the Cleveland fans have more regard and residency for Bernie Kosar than patriots fans have for Tom Brady I'm not sure what to tell you. Good luck with that.
So you say let Brady go, it's over?
Need to be or strive to be?
To me success is measured in championships. I will take The manning era giants over the Rodgers era packers (SO FAR) every day of the week.
Winning more regular season games and feeling like a contender more but winning one championship, to me, pales in comparison to winning 2, regardless of whatever else happened.
Saying the browns fans had more loyalty to their mediocre QB than pats fans have to the GOAT is not saying anything about emulating them.1) Where I got the Browns fans bit was the team that Kosar played for. You think I just made that up out of thin air - no it was summing up your position. If you don't see Kosar fans were Browns fans, I can't help you, Mr. Borges.
2)In your own post starting at "disgusting" about Cleveland fans (aka Browns fans). Whatever. Moving on.
3)So you claim hanging onto Kosar at the end was good? I don't want to put words in your mouth. Maybe you agree that at the end he was the guy who used to be Bernie Kosar but the Cleveland fans (not the Browns fans somehow) owed him something.
If either of those stands is a correct summation of your point, um, I can't help you.
You posted a meme saying it's over let it go in response to patriots fans feelings about Brady.This was a joke, right?
I didn't see a smiley so wasn't sure if you were serious or not...
So you value not being boring over championships?Thats up for debate.. I find Mannings Giants incredibly boring for the most part. I find Manning to be a decent QB, just never wows me that much. He has made a couple of great throws in big moments.
Again, value what you want, I will value championships.On the other hand if you were a packers fan you might have 1 less championship but you get to watch a fun team for the most part. Watching Aaron play is pretty fun and I am not even a fan of the team.
I like your word choice..."see how far he can take this".....It is an intriguing situation...Can TB12 defy the age barrier?the patriots owe it to the fans and tom brady to see how far he can take this.
So you value not being boring over championships?
Debate all you want, I am stating my preference 100 times out of 100. You can value good looks over wining if you choose. I don't care.
Again, value what you want, I will value championships.
