There was a great piece of video from last season where Dorsett completely fails to read the blitz and Brady throws it to him on a hot read and Dorsetts' back is to the ball and he never turns to look for the ball as its coming at him. The look on Bradys face after that one play told me everything I needed to know about his trust factor with Dorsett. It was at zero.
After three years in the offense and he can't read a simple blitz, Brady had completely given up on him. You can have all the speed in the world but if you don't have a good football IQ, your not a good fit for Tom. Or the Pats quite frankly!
I get your point but at the same time the team didn't move on from him in the same calculated and cold fashion like they did with e.g. Hogan so claiming that there was absolutely no trust there anymore makes no sense to me.
He certainly wasn't the same perfect fit like Edelman or Dola but there had to be some roles they felt really comfortable.
