OT Tom Brady announces he will leave the New England Patriots

[tlongII]

I think he'll go to San Diego. That would make the most sense.

 

[Shaboid]

It was a joke. He isnt going there. Maybe L.A.

I know your a TB fan but that seems like a terrible fit imo. I bet it will be more interesting than watching the ball get thrown to the other team though.

anything is better than watching that trainwreck.

with the receiving firepower we have, Brady would throw for 5500+ yards.

 

[Chris Craig]

Looking more like the Chargers with Rivers headed to the Colts

 

[Chris Craig]

they signed Mariota. he isn't going there.

im praying to god he goes to Tampa. it more than likely wont happen, though.

Idiots

 

[hoopsjock]

I have heard talking heads talk about SF though, so it's a joke, but some people are taking it seriously.

SF has been ruled out.

[Jon]

Im on the edge of my seat with this.

 

[Chris Craig]

Brady to the Bucs

 

[Minstrel]

Brady to the Bucs

Makes sense. $30M per year and a lot of good weapons to throw to.

 

[PHXBlazer1]

Brady and Brees in the same division..go old guys!

 

[Natebishop3]

Not sure why though.... Tampa sucks.

 

[Jon]

YOU HAVE NO IDEA HOW ECSTATIC I AM RIGHT NOW!!!!!!!

my favorite QB of all time on my favorite team of all time. HOLY FUCK!!!!

Congrats! I hope it lives up to your excitement.

A lot of Chiefs fans also had high expectations when they got Joe Cool at the end of his career.

Tampa Bay is loaded actually

Mike Evans, Chris Godwin, OJ Howard..

Really good OL.

I think the fit is very strange... When I think of Brady at this point in his career it's a guy who is 43(42?) his skillset has diminished and would seem to fit well on a team with a good running game and good defense where can make the throws when he needs to but be a game manager so to speak. Going to the Buccs he'll certainly be throwing a lot and they do have good weapons on the outside. Their defense isn't much to speak of either seems like a weird fit IMO, but of course, I have been wrong before.

Yeah, I agree it’s an interesting fit. Don’t see Brady airing it out...successfully, at least.

Their defense seemed to turn a corner toward the end of the season, but they lose a lot, so yeah. Interesting.

Offensively though, better OL than the Pats, better weapons, I can see why he was intrigued.

 

[handiman]

TB to TB, it doesn't get any more logical than that. And Giselle is closer to home.

 

[Minstrel]

Tampa Bay finished #5 in defensive efficiency last year, so they were actually quite good on defense. Their main problem was turnovers on offense...Winston threw 30 interceptions and lost 5 more fumbles (fumbling 12 times).

Brady will cut that turnover total down a metric ton, but it's questionable whether he can produce the kinds of yards and touchdowns that Winston did. With the receivers Tampa has, maybe. I think that if Brady bounces back with a solid year, the Buccaneers might contend for a wild card spot.

Are you not worried about the turnover on defense? They have a ton of free agents, if I’m recalling correctly.
I do agree that having a QB who isn’t gonna turn the ball over a billion times is a bit more significant.

I'm not a Buccaneers fan, so I'm not really sure of their free agent situation and who they're slated to lose. Losing key contributors on defense would definitely change things.

 

[bodyman5000 and 1]

Who fucking cares? Fuck Tom Brady

 

[PHXBlazer1]

Its hard to imagine Tampa Bay all of a sudden becoming a Super Bowl contender..but if anyone can do it its Bill Bellichek..oh wait..wait what?
