Brays extension means he’s playing after the season as well barring injury or major decline

Unless there's something new that I missed, Brady hasn't signed an extension, and has just has his contract restructured.

Correct. He’s a free agent next year with a no tag clause.

He now can’t be tagged next year… my bad I meant contract reconstruction not extension but ya if he’s adding that clause in the deal he’s still looking to play past this season

Not so sure about that. If they win this year I think he walks off champion

Eh the Patriots offensive system didn't require him to air it out as much and it worked for 20 years. The main point of my original post was that during 2018-2021 his numbers were very similar to Mahomes and Rodgers if not greater specially in air yards thrown

It really is amazing how well Brady has performed into his 40's. What I think separates him from the others is the few amount of mistakes he makes at key times.

I was thinking the same way in 2018 and look where we are now. Incredible.

Yes. He is playing his best football right now.

Nobody knows whether Brady will retire including Brady himself. The most important factor imo is how well he plays.

If his play and stats are more like 2018 and 2019, it's a step back and 100% he will retire. Although he was still a top 10 QB in those seasons and won a SB.

If in the next season Brady can play more like 2020 and 2021 and be in the MVP conversation, I think he'll consider playing 1 more season irregardless of whether they win the SB.

I think he wants to go to Miami for a variety of reasons - team has ramped up offense for him, Sean Payton coming, stake in ownership, he is building his big mansion there.

Not really. He's benefitting from a watered-down league. As I mentioned numerous times, Matthew Stafford's performance last year basically the same as Brady's 2020 season. In fact, Stafford did something that Brady has never done before - led his team on a long GW scoring drive with less than a minute left in the game.

That's interesting. I thought he took a step back last year.

He did but he is also still worth the 5th year option price tag

Sean Payton is out of the picture, Miami will not fire their brand new fancy coach baring an Urban Meyer level meltdown. So how that might changes Brady’s desire to go there who knows.

He played with a torn ligament in his foot

Edit: Nevermind that was David
