Brady is playing with house money. So are we. Unless, you are like many here who started following the team recently because of age or because the team is now a huge success and you think this is a right to have a team like this.
I get it. Take someone who is around 28 here. Here is what they know - since they were about 10 and started following Boston sports seriously, they have seen a ridiculous Pats team and 10 parades for Boston.
This town saw zero parades from 1987 to 2001.
After following this team for as long as I have (and Boston sports) and to have a player who we can call our own "Russell/Orr" etc and has reached the legendary status of the Gretzky's and Jordan's .....Pardon me if I have zero issue with this legend's legend finishing his career here and being given the benefit of the doubt, particularly when he is playing at.......MVP level.
Obviously when he starts playing like a mediocre player, contingencies will have to be made/put in place.
You have to have a little loyalty here.
