Patriots Rumor ESPN hitpiece on Patriots (Rift with Brady/Belichick/Kraft) - Merged

[Ring 6]

and how exactly do you know this?

proof?.......evidence?........deductive logic?

or just wishful thinking

It’s called a prediction and it will become true.

I think he knows this because the mathematical probability alone will likely prove him right. Brady has at least 5 SB wins (and may have one or two more) and no QB in the history of the game has had as many SB wins. Pretty unlikely that JG will accomplish that feat.

Wow, 64 pages talking about this ESPN piece. It gives merit to their bs hot takes garbage, when a fan base that’s supposed to hate them can’t stop talking about their crap.

Could he be a source? Pretty close to things...

Dontcha love it when one mediot quotes another mediot as a "source" and neither plays any role on the team!

Cannot really compare the Montana/Young to Brady situation as Montana has missed most of 2 seasons and Young came in and won MVP while he was hurt.

Agree and despite that the "Montanaites" still wanted Young traded. Young was hurt in 1991. That and coming up short in 92 (Joe was a god in the AFC playoffs) and 93 didn't help losing back to back NFCCGs. In was in 1994 when he was ungodly and Joe Cool retiring stopped the *****ing and moaning.

If Brady had missed 2016 and Jimmy G was 1st team All Pro then the conversation is much different.

Different but similar.

Favre/Rogers was different as well as Favre was talking retirement every off season. Brady claims he wants to play another 4 or 5 years. I honestly hope Jimmy G turns out to be a stud but the jury is still out.

"Favreites" still *****ed when AR took over. GB was 6-10 in 2008 and 13-3 the year prior. They *****ed some more in 2009 as GB was one n dun and Favre had an MVP caliber season. It finally ended in 2010 w/ Favre done and AR winning a SB.

The dynamic is different here as it relates to those two situations, this time its the old guy who stays and the understudy who is shipped off.

Don’t bother with logic man. He’s on a mission to undermine everything our team has done.

No I’m saying brady will win more from today foreard than jimmy will

I think she's entirely aware that it's a prediction. She's asking what said prediction is based on, which as far as I can tell is your wishful hunch.

 

[CutiePie]

Because the 26 year old couldn’t make it through two games and the 40 year old is the best payer in football.

he just made it through 5 games unscathed......with a poor OL.....

he went 5-0......higher qb rating than brady in those 5 games.....with worse talent and coaching......in a new system

and many people here are blaming some of bradys troubles in the second half of the season on an achilles injury

the irony.....lol

Ask Vegas their pick. They do not use wishful thinking at all.

What do you think Vegas would give on the Patriots winning one in the next 5 years? What do you think Vegas would give on the Niners winning one in the next 5 years?

5 rings, 7 title games, in 16 years. He is still performing at such a level that this was arguably his 4th-best season of the 16.

This year is a coin-flip. Next year is close to that.

Good times for Patriots fans, but I guess you wouldn't know.

Huh?

 

[sb1]

Bledsoe-> Brady is a much closer analogy to Montana->Young than Brady to JG

That and is -13 below with the wind chill and no one wants to go outside.

I have to say, the Pats coordinated response is weak. They could have outright denied all this but that statement does not do that. Some of this true and we all know it.

It's not popular to say it out here, but I think you're right. If they were trying to issue an unequivocal denial, they should fire their PR team, because what they issued was weak. It reads like something put together by committee.

Ask the nfl players. Someone did and out of every active qb in the league brady was chosen as the QBs who will win the most SBs from 2017 on

It’s fine. Picking at the details only gives them credence and keeps the story going.

 

[PatsFanSince74]

I didn't like the focus on unsubstantiated in there either. But I think all of us can agree that "highly exaggerated" is very likely the case. I doubt there is a single one of us who would think that Brady didn't get upset over Guerrero's lack of access, or doesn't think that BB believes Guerrero to be a distraction and snake oil salesman that he puts up with because his best player trusts him, or doesn't think that BB wanted to hold onto Jimmy G as insurance because his starting QB is 40 and if he's still playing at the top level at that age he'd be the 1st. That seems very plausible. "Highly exaggerated" is all the rest of the "stories" and "implications" of that.

That comes as close to what I think as anything I've read out here.

Why is this troll allowed to post here?

 

[Palm Beach Pats Fan]

Has anyone ever heard of Patriot of the week lol?

WickerSHAM was confused.

Kraft did not award Tom membership in the Jelly of the Month Club. As a Vacation movies fan, it irks him to no end.
