Tom Brady is DONE

Looks like he was good enough.

71.4 passer rating against the porous Rams defense is not impressive. But Goff was even less impressive, so there's that.

Both QBs were exposed in this game, Brady just happened to be better than Goff. Brady is talking about playing to 45 because he wants a lot of up front guaranteed money in his contract extension. His final contract could destroy the Patriots future. Hopefully he gets paid a bunch of guaranteed money and the rest of us can watch as McDaniels goes down with the ship when Brady decides to retire after one more season. Once Brady and Bill are gone, all the cheap free agents will disappear (no more home town discount).

Much like Allen Webb, he is old, slow and a shadow of his former self. I honestly doubt he throws more than 3000 yards this season. Serves him right for supporting that nazi loving trump!!!

You meant Nazi loving Hillary, right?

Moo, you have won the most embarrassing title possible on Letsrun, MORON of the YEAR!

Brady is notorious for accepting less than he worth in order to free up monies for the rest of the roster.

I was looking for this thread and was surprised it took so long to surface. I'll include the reoccurring idiotic quotes thrown towards Belichick as well as Brady and others while we celebrate the worlds greatest sports dynasty.

1."Patriots will regret the day they hired BILL Bellichick"~Ian O'Connor, 2000.

2.Tom Brady is just about done and he is going to be a bum in short order. He is about to fall off a cliff. Max Kellerman, spoken on TB 12"s 39 BIrthday. Brady went on to win the MVP and the Super Bowl. He had an have an off year the next year, while turning 40 and only throwing a miserly 500 yards in a SB loss.

3. Trent Dilfer telling the whole country that "they're just not good anymore". tHey then went of to beat the Seahawks in the Super Bowl.

4. I'm too old and you're too slow. Hogan and Brady sideline.

5. No.........199 other so called "experts" passing on Brady.

We in New ENgland thank you from the bottom of our hearts

Sixth round pick, correct?

Even Patriots did not know Brady was going to microdose and never get caught.

Brady, at University of Michigan did not have an NFL arm. Suddenly, at age 23, Brady acquired an NFL arm.

With small person receiver Edelman getting Superbowl MVP, NFL fans obviously do not care about their favorite stars being on the juice.

Tom Brady might win another super bowl. Doesn’t change the fact that he’s done. On any other team with any other coaching setup he’s got nothing. You think the Pats wouldn’t have won that game with Brian Hoyer playing QB? They absolutely would have. Brady was terrible last night.

This is bizarre. He wins the superbowl which obviously means he's done. Then of course if he were to somehow do it again, still done. That makes sense.

Until recently I never fully understood the mentality of someone who hates people who win a lot. Then it became obvious to me that when you set goals and then work hard and ultimately achieve them, it's extremely painful to watch for people who don't live their lives like that.

Most great QBs are done in by injury or personnel & coaching changes. Brady has had the same coach and can seemingly pass to anyone. He’s incredibly lucky to have not been injured. As long as he has Gronkowski and Edelman to pass too they will be a threat to be in the SB.

I'll never understand why do many people resent success. Be it the Yankees, Lakers, Patriots, or Duke basketball, people seem to hate them just because they've done well.

I guess it sucks that they're better than your team, but... They're better than your team.

The Patriots have operated in the gray area in many aspects over the last 20 years, sometimes going too far and getting punished for cheating. It's quite obvious Brady makes about 60% of what he should make on his contract because he's getting paid under the table by Kraft. No doubt in my mind. Nobody willingly throws away ~$10M/year.

I understand Brady actually does throw the money away. I understand Brady took his usual pay cut with idea Patriots would sign Brady's then buddy Wes Welker. When Patriots did not sign Welker, I understand Brady asked to be paid in full. I understand Brady was told in so many words by Patriots' management, Brady signed the contract, he had to live with it.

If it was that easy, every owner would be paying all their big money players under the table. In Brady's case he cares far more about winning than being amongst the highest paid players in the league. He has made plenty of money in his career and his wife has made even more...

16? That’s almost as many as the Celtics!

you must still be in high school.

Brady started working with his own personal throwing coach (Tom House) around the time of the draft, because he knew he would be lucky to even be drafted. He owes a large part of his success to him, and even had him in before the most recent Chargers game.

If you have ever heard him speak of his work with Alex Guerrero and the TB12 method, their whole focus is on building up pliability and not bulk. Look at the picture of him on vacation with Gisselle last year, she is more cut than hey is! He is able to take a beating year after year because he has trained his body to take the hits. Tom House and Alex Guerrero are Brady's micro dosing!

Brady is far from done at 41 and is performing like no other American pro athlete did at his age. The guy is unreal due to the way he takes care of himself. He was playing with a strained MCL earlier this season, but he would never admit it, because nobody gets hurt while practicing the TB12 method right? And to the poster who said that Hoyer could do what Brady is doing, you are either high or a troll. Brady had an off game, but its the intangibles, like reading reading defenses, calling audibles and clock management that make him the greatest to ever play the game. At this point, people like you usually whip out some asinine stats like Mark Sanchez has a better away playoff record than Tom Brady.

As far as Edelman's suspension The two major elements of Edeleman's appeal were reportedly that the substance he tested positive for was one that wasn’t recognized by the drug tester and that the NFL mishandled the documentation and delivery of Edelman’s test results, so he really shouldn't have been suspended in the first place.

Anyways-Enough writing, time to head downtown to the parade.
