  • People are saying Tampa? It makes sense to me. Arians got the best out of Carson Palmer before retiring. 

    Thoughts? 

  • I wonder what record the Pats will have next year.

  • I don't know why, but I just have never liked the guy. Just something about him. I think he needs to simply retire. He's fading fast as a QB, and he should quit while people still remember how good he was, not for hanging on too long.

  • I thought I'd never see the day, but finally it happened. Wonder how are both Belichick and Brady do without each other. I think both of them are great, but made each other better.

    I think they wonder the same thing.... especially Bill. I think the path to success is easier for TB12.

    It'll get easier to predict once we know who the QB is.

    Because he's a winner and you were envious that the Browns couldn't find just 1/3 his equal for even a single season.

    It doesn't matter how he finishes his career. He'll always be remembered as the greatest to play the position and those that "forget" that fact, simply don't understand the game.

    Exactly what they said in 2015, and 2016, and 2017, and ...

    He won't put a team on his shoulders but he's an elite leader and the best game manager you could hope for. Put him in the right situation and that team can reach the SB

    Generally doesn't go that way like Peyton, Farve, Montana, Namath, Unitas and many others.

    They probably want to get a few more big paydays as a backup or young QB trainer somewhere.  Kind of a big parting gift from the NFL......why not.

  • I have never "liked" him. He is a quite socially awkward guy with an enviable life (and wife), but I never got to hate him. I always rooted against him because he had already won everything when I started watching the NFL and I'm all in for underdogs. 

    However, he made the unthinkable, won more than anyone and everything thanks to a great work ethic and team play (he has been paid less than other lesser QBs in order to have more cap for his teammates). And that deserves my admiration, which he has.

    Here's why I don't think Tampa.....

    - From Cali, grew up there, Chargers have nice weapons. . LA 2nd largest city, major action to set up 2nd career. 

    - Tom has lived in North CA, MI (college) and Boston. He may well be no fan of TB heat May-Oct. Oppressive. Insane humidity. (Sure, he'd probably like the weather Nov-April). 

    - Arians' system is notorious for the QB taking a long time to get rid of the ball to go deep. (Bruce even jokes about QBs not being wussies and afraid of taking hits, as they are football placers too.) At 42, you think Tom would be into playing in a system where he has to take more shots?) 

    - I don't think his jet setter wife would be happy to live in a town as "un chic" as TB. She is all about NY, London, Rome, LA and Milan. In some areas of Tampa, you will see people wearing farmer jeans (overalls) shirtless, with only one strap connected.

    Maybe LA wasn't interested.

    Otto Graham.   Oh, you forgot about him...or don't understand the game.

    Peyton won a Super Bowl,  Favre and Montana went to Conf. title games after they left their original teams.   Namath and Unitas were washed up with their original teams and never should have continued playing....or sitting on the bench.  I remember going to a Browns/Rams game years ago....because WSS insisted on going to see Namath in his twilight.   Froze our fucking asses off.  (Browns lost 9-0) And we saw Namath alright...he was wrapped up tight inside his coat the entire game and never came close to seeing the field.   I think Brady will be more like Peyton/Montana/Favre, and not like  Namath and Unitas.

    I always liked him, but I did want him to lose.  Or, at least, I wanted BB to lose.

    Otto can't move like he used to...

    Yeah.... those socially awkward guys get all the supermodels...

    Bastage, the lot of them...

  • gonna be weird seeing him in that tampa red

  • Weird move.  TB in TB? Probably Would be in my top 10 places that I wouldn’t expect him to go.  didn’t see him as an NFC QB

    But No State Income tax.

    Bruce Arians.  Okay I get that and I don’t think TB would mesh well with a green coach.  But Bruce likes to air it deep so TB will have modify his game a bit. 

  • ...and so ends the Invincible Patriots....
