It's easy, and only takes a few moments.It seemed like the team's lost some of the fun offensive players the past few years. Brady has always been a moody guy and Gronk really helped keep things light when TB12 was getting too intense.Tom Brady Says ‘Football's Fun Again' With Buccaneers
Sounds like Brady taking a dig against Belichick.....or maybe he isn't,maybe hes just saying that because Gronk is back at his disposal......no one knows but it seemed to me well before this that Tom has not been a happy camper in New England for at least last season if not a few years before.
It will be interesting to see if making these easier equates to success for Brady. I'm under the impression he became great -- and stayed great -- because he was constantly battling weather, fatigue, Bill being Bill, and Boston media.I don't think he ever minded Bill. The team sucking was the impetus for him leaving at age 42 and it was the right move to Tampa to a team able to surroud him with top talent. No wonder he is energized and ready to go. I also think being in sunny Fl helps too. He has to be loving how his body feels and the reality that he has no games on his schedule in cold weather.
There's always adversity. It's unavoidable. What made Brady the goat is his internal drive to be great and win. His goal never changes but he has put himself in a situation to excel and it is up to him to take advantage of it. I have no doubt he will.It will be interesting to see if making these easier equates to success for Brady.

Where is the adversity in Tampa, other than 2020 stuff?

Saints & Falcons twice each, for starters...Where is the adversity in Tampa, other than 2020 stuff?
This is so unfair, he did not say this to the public, it was a private conversation that his throwing coach decided to share with the world. It is disgusting how talking heads have jumped on this and portraying it as if he called a press conference and said this.
Like what is wrong with us?
What? Arians won a playoff game in Arizona and was in the NFCCG that year against Cam Newton's Panthers. Palmer threw 4 picks in that game to ensure a loss. Arians also won COY with 2 different teams (Colts, Cards). He also has SB wins as a coordinator with the Steelers. The guy is a great HC who has been stuck with crappy QB talent as a HC save for his first HC year with the Colts when he had a rookie Andrew Luck and took that team to the playoffs as the interim when Pagano left in week 1 due to illness.
In terms of the coaching, just wait to see how average to below average the Pats coaches look this season without the GOAT QB to cover for them. And yes that includes Bill too.
I wish Tom would just shut the **** up
You realize the exact same arguments could be made about Bill prior to Brady? Except Bill never got to a conference champ game or was COY of the year twice and had a 5-11 record with Bledsoe, a first pick QB talent.
So many things wrong with this statement.
Belichick turned around a horrid Browns team in 3 years.
Belichick's 4th year with the Browns he got stabbed in the back by ownership.
He had a "5-11 record" because the team he inherited was in Cap hell. I could go on and on about the problems with that 2000 team but it's been done ad nauseum on this board.

I'm sure Belichick is a ton less fun to play for than the Arians.
It's probably also going to be a lot more fun to be golfing in January than watching Cam host a Lombardi.
Patriots are 14-6 without Brady since Brady was named starter. Bill's track record needs no further explanation.
Even with that in mind I doubt the Patriots get to .500 next season if Brady had stayed to be honest.
You think Tom won’t make playoffs and Cam will win SB. WAKE UP!! You’re crazy!
