Do Patriot fans have less loyalty to Tom Brady than Browns fans did to Bernie Kosar

[Ring 6]

With Brady reaching forty, it's logical for fans to bring up the possibility of succession. I don't happen to agree with them, but to say anyone that mentions the possibility is disloyal is stupid. Actually, the fans who were undyingly loyal to Kosar, not even close to Brady, were stupid.

Of course you are aware what you are calling stupid and implying was said, was not said.

Brady has played some of his best ball late in his career which is unusual, but it doesn't mean he might not have a swift decline, because he is a mortal human being.

Any discussion has included that he doesn't have a swift decline by the time a decision must be made because that would impact it.

A lot of nuance in their Andy. I know that's not your thing,

Ironic that you say that as you misrepresent my position.

but you might consider their are multiple valid points of view on this situation. I trust BB and I think he doesn't know what he will do yet.

But the discussion is happening now. Obviously things change and you make a decision at the time it's necessary.

I'm mocking a thread that compare Brady to Bernie Kosar and seems to be looking for fans to sign loyalty oaths.

A thread which neither compares Brady to kosar ( it compares the fans reaction to potentially dumping them when they-the fans-still believe they are the best QB on the team) or is "looking for fans to sign a loyalty oath" but rather questions why fans seem so ready to cast aside the primary reason for 5 SBs while he is still playing at near his peak because they would rather not lose the unproven guy who might just be pretty good.

No, I don't think you do. There are very few QBs that come out of college who are above average. There are even fewer who are available outside of the top ten picks. Without bottoming out after Brady and JG leave the Patriots aren't sniffing any of those draft slots. So Bill, in this hypothetical situation, would be tasked with finding an above average QB in the middle of the first round or later. That is a very difficult task for any GM. Even a great one. Bill is not supernatural. He doesn't have magical powers. Reality will not suspend itself because Bill needs a QB. He can't just pluck one out of the draft like it's no big deal. That doesn't make him a bad GM. it's just reality.

You seem not to realize when Garoppolo was drafted (and I won't even mention where Brady was drafted)

Several really talented young QB's were taken in the 2nd round or later. Carr, Wilson, Prescott come to mind. Carr might be the best mid-20's (or younger) QB in the league.

Are you Garrison Keiller?

Love it "...where everyone is above average..." The Browns fans suck and their ridiculous fans ran the two best Coaches, Paul Brown and Bill Belichick, in the history of the NFL, out of town while worshiping their over-aged players.

It should be illegal to listen to that guy while driving.

No he played the best 4th quarter and OT ever. He was terrible for most of three quarters.

Wow, 3 quarters? Brady went 15-1 with 28 touchdowns and two interceptions, and he won another Super Bowl and Super Bowl MVP. But I understand why you disregard all of that as 3 quarters is half a season for your binky.

 

[Huckleberry1]

Why on earth would anyone want to replace the best player that's ever played football while he is still the best player to ever play football?

It's mind numbingly stupid.

Because at Brady's age he might start missing time due to age related injuries such as Calf strains etc......

 

[Huckleberry1]

If the NFL system meant every player in the league was a free agent at the end of each season, and they held a draft tomorrow for the upcoming season the #1 pick overall for any team picking would be ..........

BRADY!!!!!!!!!



Do you hear me?


Do I need to repeat myself?




Good!

Tom Brady eats "calf strains" for breakfast

Really, he does. It's not a night shade.

B/c Sidney Crosby is better

I make a joke.

After reading his nutrition menus, calf strains might be the tastiest thing he ingests...

I want to see just how far Belichick and Brady can push this envelope. Given the situation they are in I can see them actually going for eight in the end. They are the odds on favorites this season and they are in excellent shape against the cap for the foreseeable future.

Paul Brown is Belichick's yardstick, if they win one this year he is within shouting distance, and I want them going for that. I want them to distance themselves from the pack as the greatest FU possible to the 30, N.O. Is never included, they are our Wolfpack of two.

Beats me. I don't.

Oh, please. Check the Browns history. Belichick did not get run out of Cleveland. The team moved to Baltimore!

 

[PatriotsReign]

I already posted Patsfans aren't less loyal on page one!

So why are you dopes still discussing this 29 pages later?

 

[Ring 6]

Oh, please. Check the Browns history. Belichick did not get run out of Cleveland. The team moved to Baltimore!

Not to mention fans don't run coaches out of town

This film is still one of the most fascinating among the A Football Life series.

Belichick assembled an all-star group in Cleveland that might have been the dynasty of the 2000s if they had been allowed to do their thing.
