I don't know why Patriots fans are holding this against Brady and Gronk. It's like they forgot that right after a Super Bowl victory, they offered 41 year old Brady a 1 year take-it-or-leave-it contract. Brady had just built a $27m house and he clearly had intentions of permanent roots in Brookline. And the next thing you know, his new house is on the market by July. The guy will be playing at the age of 45, but 5 years earlier, the Patriots didn't see fit to offer him a 2-year contract. That was the Patriots decision.
As for Gronk, they tried to trade him for peanuts. Clearly, Gronk was no longer a central part of their plans.
Why are the players to blame for lack of loyalty when the organization made these personnel decisions for them, basically?
