Look at what they did they year Brady was out for the season. 11-5.
Or when he sat out the first 4 games, they went 3-1 and probably would have gone 4-0 had the Grop not gotten hurt!
I would gladly trade Belichick for Tomlin. Then we'll know that it's not Brady.

Oh my brother was very upset with the Joe Theismann injury. He's a big Redskins fan and use to watch them practice in Carlisle every year. I don't like Beckham either but he was comic relief when he got upset one night and threw his helmet at a kicking net and it flew back and hit him. I didn't see the injury live but I saw a video of it and wish him a speedy recovery.

I like Gronk. Kinda has local ties. He spent his senior year at Woodland Hills HS where my wifes uncle taught him in history class. Says that he was the hardest working kid on the team. Always first one in and last one out. His family owns a chain of fitness stores, G&G Fitness (Gronkowski & Gronkowski) and there's one right by my house. I've bought a lot of shit from them. Rob does advertisements for them, but they can't use anything NFL.

That said, I do respect both BB and TB. Unreal what they do up there. I don't think that they're as dominate without TB, but they're still a really good team as long as Hoodie is patrolling the sidelines.
Pats are just a great organization through and through as far as development and finding the talent.

I'm just old school SB. I don't like players that 'carry on'. I know that's how's it's changed but, for me, I like Jim Brown's answer when someone asked him about all the showboating, trash talking, and such.
His answer was, "I don't like it. For me, it takes away from the 'team' concept and puts the focus on the player. My 'show' was what I did on the field. I didn't need to draw attention to myself afterward."

Lots of people do what you just did there, so you're certainly not alone, but please take a look at this.

Man, I wish this bunch in my fantasy football league were here to read this.....I brought up this same point, and two Steeler fans roasted me over it. Homers.

LOL, such non-sense.
Why don't you count when Bill was 5-11 in 2000 with the Patriots, without Brady!
Or when he was with the Browns and had one winning season in 5 years!!!!!
That year he was 11-5 without Brady he did not make the playoffs!!!!
Brady has NEVER missed the playoffs and has NEVER had a losing season.

You can't count Cleveland. No one succeeds in Cleveland. It sucks the life out of everyone who goes there.

Actually BB won 36 games in 5 years with Cleveland. I'd consider that a HUGE success That's the best 5 year run for the Browns in 30 years.

I hate blind homers like that. Terry was average and only made it to he NFL because Phil Robertson of Duck Dynasty didn't want to play football because it was interfering with hunting season.
