He didnt win the game. That I know.

But he didnt lose it either.

But Mahones did win it, and that was the difference.

Nice that this is the off season ....
Mods are allowed to keep troll threads up.

For the record ... I was happy with the trade - it was the right choice.
We won a Super Bowl by keeping Brady ... that alone made it worth it.

I still think we could have gotten more in return, but yeah, keeping Brady was the right move.

Mahomes two interceptions were far more impactful that Jimmy's "two"

And debating which of the two is better was not what was being asked.

He probably should have tried to, you know, score with over a minute left in the first half and a full compliment of timeouts.

You know how the Patriots were always saying "We've got Brady", describing their optimism when they were down in a game? I'll bet the Chiefs say the same. Jimmy G, not so much.

Anyone who claims that Garoppolo "choked the game away" tonight simply is wrong. He played well overall but certainly not well enough with the game on the line after the 49ers defense failed to hold. Still quite young in terms of experience, the jury's still out on what he has to offer.

You're describing a journeyman, not a master.

I will say that I was shocked Andy Reid didn’t use his 1st timeout after that 1st down play and seeing how the 49ers were trying to kill the clock. You have Patrick Mahomes and the 9ers get the ball to start the 2nd half; why wouldn’t you try to get the ball back? Then I remembered it was Andy Reid.

Were just gonna continue to ignore the 10 point lead jimmy helped give them and then lay the whole loss on him even though the niners defense couldnt stop kc in each of their last 3 drives.

Right

That niners loss is 90% of the coach and 10% on game changing penalties.

Sure.

But the refs took 3 points off the board regardless on the most petty **** I ever seen. In a superbowl no less.

Everyone always says play above the refs but my experience here is if that **** happened to Brady and gronk its 10 years of excuses on how the NFL stole another ship from us.

OTC just tweeted that if the 49ers decided to cut Jimmy they would save 22.4 million on the cap and only have a dead money hit of less than 5 million.

Imagine if the offer Brady a contract? Would he go home? Although not really a fit for the Shanahan bootleg offense, the 49ers clearly have a much better roster than the Pats.

I seriously doubt Brady would go anywhere else, but SF calling would scare me if I am a Patriots fan.

It happened to Gronk all the time. And that was a legitimate push off.

Could you imagine if Brady went to San Fran and Jimmy came back to New England on a prove it deal.
Worlds colliding

That gives the Patriots an option should Brady leave. He ain’t Brady as we clearly saw last night, but with the right cast, coaching and proper system I think he could be good enough to win a Super Bowl at some point in his career. He just won’t carry the team to one like Brady can.

But let’s hope it doesn’t happen. I’d still take a 43 year old Brady than Garoppolo at this point.

I don’t think Tom would step on Jimmys Toes like that though.

i feel the same about someone who saw that play and came away thinking a "push" happened.
