Damn near every player in the NFL right now grew up watching Tom Brady, there is nothing really weird about idolizing the guy. Most players would love to go play in NE because of the culture but that culture includes not making top dollar outside of a select few positions, and HB isn't one of them. That diversion of culture and monetary desire is why NE doesn't get all the FA's in the world, because in the end guys want paid early in their career which is why NE tends to be a 3rd contract type stop.
