Clearly its the system right? Every qb on that roster comes in and performs well. Thats WHY HE FOUGHT SO HARD NOT TO BE SUSPENDED. Hes exposed now...could he play at a high level somewhere else like Favre...Manning. ..Montana? I would love to know.
Spygate already exposed him. Being suspended due to cheating in regards to Deflategate has only giving him a career asterisk next to & alongside his name. He's the Barry Bonds & Lance Armstrong of pro Football. I'll never considered Tom Brady the greatest QB of my era. The likes of Joe Montana, Dan Marino, Troy Aikman, Jim Kelly, John Elway, Steve Young, Warren Moon, Randall Cunningham, Brett Favre, Peyton Manning & even Kurt Warner go down as the great one's that I've seen. Aaron Rodgers & Ben Roethlisberger have also done it the right way (On the field). Brady has only frustrated me as a QB who's been suspended for cheating. All while his head coach has been fined for it as well as his front office losing a 1st round draft pick all because of cheating. Although video tape evidence has been destroyed. That'll be my overall memory of Tom Brady as time goes on and he's no longer within the NFL picture. His offensive lines have always been able to hold & the refs have never allowed him to be touched. And unlike the likes of Favre & Big Ben he'd cry every time he was getting roughed up. He'd beg for yellow flags. He's been a spoiled brat of an NFL QB.
Removing my Jets hate for Brady & N.E I believe Brady would get the job done within just about any offensive system. If we had Tom Brady back in 2009 & 2010 it wouldn't have mattered who our offensive coordinator was. With that roster we would've advanced to back to back (consecutive) Super Bowl appearances. Sanchez played well during postseason play but with Brady at QB, behind that defense, we would've had home field advantage throughout the playoffs; rather than having to win 3 road games a piece during 2009 & 2010's playoff runs. And thats probably the last time you'll see me talking up Tom Brady. I can't stand the man. Although his asterisks still remain.
The only other system we have evidence of is Michigan...uh wasnt he a 10th round pick? His combine was out of this world right?
Despite being 7th on the depth chart entering his freshman year, and playing for a coach who just didn't want him to be the starter, Brady had an outstanding college career. I love folks who post stupid shit. Yeah, those combine heroes have worked out well for the Jets haven't they? Brady battled for the starting job with Drew Henson,[36] ultimately starting every game in the 1998 and 1999 seasons under Michigan head coach Lloyd Carr. During his first full year as starter, he set new Michigan records for most pass attempts and completions in a season, for a total of 214.[41] Brady was All-Big Ten honorable mention both seasons, and was the team captain in his senior year. The Wolverines won 20 of 25 games when he started, and he set a school record for completions in a 31–16 loss against Ohio State in 1998, a season in which Michigan shared the Big Ten Conference title. Brady capped that season with a win over Arkansas in the Citrus Bowl.[42] In the 1999 season, Brady had to once again hold off Henson for the starting job. The two platooned over the season's first seven games, with Brady playing the first quarter, Henson the second and Carr then deciding upon a quarterback for the second half. The 1999 Michigan Wolverines started off 5–0, including a 26–22 win over Notre Dame, and a road win against eventual powerhouse Wisconsin. Against Michigan State, Brady was not chosen to play the second half; however, he was reinserted into the game with Michigan down 17, and he nearly led Michigan all the way back before losing 34–31. After a 300-yard passing game the following week, Carr went exclusively with Brady for the remainder of the season. Brady went on to lead Michigan to multiple 4th-quarter comebacks, including a remarkable 31–27 win against Penn State, and leading them out of a close game against Indiana, 34–31, heading into the regular season's final game, winners of three straight, earning him the moniker of "Comeback Kid". Brady concluded the regular season against Michigan's rival, Ohio State, in a dramatic game, with a trip to the Orange Bowl on the line. With five minutes left, tied 17–17, Brady led Michigan to the winning score. He led Michigan to an overtime win in the Orange Bowl over Alabama, throwing for 369 yards, four touchdowns, leading the team back from a pair of 14-point deficits in regulation (14–0 in the first half, and 28–14 in the second). He threw the game-winning score on a bootleg to tight end Shawn Thompson. Michigan won when Alabama missed an extra point following its own touchdown. The two seasons that Brady started at Michigan, he posted a 20–5 record, including his two largest victories at the Citrus Bowl (1999) and the Orange Bowl (2000). Brady finished his career ranking 3rd in Michigan history with 710 attempts and 442 completions, 4th with 5,351 yards and 62.3 completion percentage, and 5th with 35 touchdown passes.[27][43]
Imagine an alternate reality in which Peyton Manning came out for the draft a year earlier. So we drafted him #1 overall and Belichick didn't leave because nobody in their right mind would walk away from Manning. Damn we would have been good.
Pats could play Stephen Hawking at the QB position, and he'd wheel his chair over the line against this evening's Houston defense.
Number 1 overall pick in Clowney also having an outstanding performance with his whopping 1 tackle. Oakland Raiders are laughing at Houston while being thankful for Khalil Mack. Who most experts had as a much better overall football player (compared to Clowney being an athlete)
