The Trade - 8 Games Later

[RayClay]

I'm being rhetorical, RC...you should recognize the "angry crazy Joe Kerr" meme by now...

Hope you're doing well, Joe. This is a thread about laughing at the bucs and enjoying our new line, TD machine tight end and future draft pick and money to spend - not a chicken little thread.

I still don't want to keep on rehashing this, but I will say this - Six of Brady's 26 TDs were caught by Tim Wright so far this season. The Pats were mediocre in the red zone last year and they are very good this year. So for all the people who argued that the trade didn't help the Pats this year, I provide you evidence that that argument is wrong.

If the Pats win HFA, the one last argument against this trade will be out the window because the early season struggles wouldn't have hurt the Pats in any way. That seems to be the only thing the people who hate this trade have going for them.

I think we have seen that this trade is not a great trade for the future, but also for the present.
