He did throw the winning touchdown.Oh man, I'm happier than a pig in slop that the Patriots lost on Brady pick-six.
Last night amid all the announcer talk about whether Brady would retire, return to the Pats or go to another team, my wife said she thought that if Brady retired, maybe Belicheck would also retire.
I told her I really doubt Belicheck would do that. He just doesn't seem that type. But it brought up an interesting notion.
Could you imagine if Brady retired or went to another team...Josh McDaniels took a coaching job somewhere else...and Belicheck retired? That would basically be the Patriots imploding.
We can always hope. ?
Predictions for Saturday:
1.) Buffalo Bills advance over the Houston Texans. [I don’t care if JJ Watt is back or not, he won’t be the deciding factor like some are claiming for this game.]
2.) Tennessee Titans advance over New England Patriots. I think the Titans offense has proven to be undermined/underrated given their ferocity how they’ve played in the latter part of the season.
If the Patriots can play decent defense and Tom Brady is where he needs to be offensively, that would be the only deciding factor if the Titans are not playing on par against N.E.
TBC....Sunday’s predictions following Saturday’s games.
Did you notice he left the playing field and ducked into a stairwell well ahead of everyone else? Kind of rude considering this might have been his last game in front of Pats fans. But it might have been another indication of his mindset....While I am no Patriot fan, I have to wonder if Tom Brady will be back. At his press conference he was mixing his words with present and past tenses which leads me to believe the thought of calling it a career is there.
He's leaving this year, and in all honesty, I don't know why he would want to inherent the Patriots if Belichek leaves. Do you really want to inherent a team that is starting the rebuilding process and you'll be in the shadow of a legend.McDaniels would take over.
Should have departed as a winner last year. He will possibly soon reek of desperation like Brett Favre did at the end of his career.He's leaving this year, and in all honesty, I don't know why he would want to inherent the Patriots if Belichek leaves.

I think Brady should have retired last year after their SB win, now he's entering that phase of a superstar desperately trying to play one (or more) year. I ills that befell the patriots wasn't because of brady, time is not Brady's friend at this point

Unlike nearly every other sports professional, he's eschewed large contracts. I guess maybe he chose not to think of a mega contract as respect, like so many other sports stars. This of course helped his team as it gave them cap space.He must really like playing,
He feels burned that he never got a multiyear deal. I still think the Chargers will sign him. They need people in that new stadium.Unlike nearly every other sports professional, he's eschewed large contracts.

I do think he loves the game and he's still able to play at a high level, but at some point, you need to say enough
If any team could sign him, its the Chargers, they've been (on paper at least) so close to winning, and with Brady they could win now, which is something that they desperately need.I still think the Chargers will sign him.

Yeah, that "kind of" helps the Seahawks, for if the Hawks beat the Eagles, the Vikings are 11 and 6 (10 and 6 regular season), and the Hawks would be 13 and 4 (12 and 4 regular season). Thus, from what I understand the NFL playoffs, the team with the worst record out of the Wild Card round would play the #1 seed, which is SF, and the team with the better record would play the #2 seed, which is Green Bay. I myself would rather have the Hawks play the Packers than the 49ers again.Vikings beat the Saints
Yeah, I agree with you. A Seattle-Green Bay match up would be intriguing, with of course the weather playing a possible significant role.Color me purple...two major upsets this weekend, this wildcard round has proven to be very unpredictable.
I think the 49ers will have their way with the Vikings next week, however.
