88YoePride Posted January 15, 2020 Author Share Posted January 15, 2020 Like I've said elsewhere, there are a lot of factors. Brady has stated he wants to play til he's 45. He turns 43 in August. No doubt he's coming back - He doesn't want his career to end on a Wild Card embarassment. Unlikely Patriots will pay him a lot of money to come back for two years. So does Brady stay with a "sure" system for less money? Because he's not going anywhere where he doesn't have a really good shot at going to the SuperBowl. So which teams fit that bill and need a QB and can afford Brady? On the flip side, is Belichick the kind of coach who will stick around to prove he can succeed without his star QB? Going to be an interesting offseason... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. P Posted January 15, 2020 Share Posted January 15, 2020 New England sends Brady and a draft pick to San Francisco for Garropolo. Yeah, not likely... but it'd make for a cool story. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Newtonres7586 Posted January 15, 2020 Share Posted January 15, 2020 I don't believe Brady is going anywhere. There is too much history and passion for him in New England. He is too old to go anywhere else especially to a team with a so, so offensive line. Somebody correct me if I'm wrong, but Montana was not as old as Brady when he went to KC. So there's that. They will probably agree to a two year deal with incentives for him to stay. He is probably maneuvering for as much as he can get from NE.. But what do I know.

Since they are in the weakest Division in football, I wouldn't count on it. Now, before somebody jumps on me; The eastern Division will not be that weak next year. IMO.

I see the AFC being back and forth with Baltimore for the next 4 years. I don't see Lamar Jackson lasting more than 7 seasons with his style of play. I think the injury bug will get him.

Going to be an interesting offseason... He won 11 games with Matt Cassell in 2008. As long as Belichick is there, they'll still be contenders. When Belichick leaves, that's when it falls apart.

cotton84 Posted January 16, 2020 Share Posted January 16, 2020 If Belichick knew right now he could have Bridgewater instead of Brady next year, without problems with the owner and fans, he would take Bridgewater in a heartbeat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like the Ravens in the AFC. Just as long as it is not the Patriots. Give it a breather Pats. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
