It’s not his job to step aside. It’s their job to knock this six time Super Bowl champion off his perch. He’s earned the right to do whatever he wants to do until the Pats tell him to stand down or until someone beats him down in play.

He is the GOAT and I’m not a Patriots fan. I just recognize excellence and he’s still pretty good compared to most others in the league.

I'm not a Pats fan either and he's not ever going to be close to being the GOAT in my book. Played in an era all about stifling defense, was the benefactor of a lot of "cheating" by the team, and was the most protected player by the refs during his era. I've got no real respect for him at all. Let him spend a career knocked around like most other QBs (until a couple of years ago) and see what he really does.

I thought that Belichick was going to lay an egg on the sidelines during that segment of the game.

My Cowboys fans are floating a rumor Jerry Jones and Bill are talking. Any words about this from New England area?

Footnote: Brady has 30 playoff wins. the other 11 QBs in the playoffs have a COMBINED 26 wins, GOAT for sure.
He didn't play great, but he sure played better than Derek Carr would have played.

Loved Vrabel using all the rules to his advantage to burn off 1:46.

Watson did that same escape move against OAK earlier this year. Teflon.

It doesn't matter since Chiefs v Ravens is destiny.

Give me Nance/Romo over Michaels/Collinsworth

Betcha he retires end of season.

Rumor is he bought a big house in Greenwich, CT.

Kiddos, private schools, maybe it's Life Part II for the Brady Bunch....

I never really liked comparing players from different eras or even different teams. Brady doesn't do that well if he's pressured. Put him on any of the crummy teams out there and he wouldn't look so good. Best to retire.

Jerry Jones found somebody or he wouldn't have let Garrett go. It would be really interesting if it was Belichick. Jones could screw it up even then.

Don't know about Bill, but offensive co-ordinator Josh McDaniels may be leaving and it could be to the Cowboys (Jones and Kraft still feuding?).

Panthers, Browns, and Giants are also being mentioned, but he does come with baggage (Denver and then backing out of the Colts deal).

Almost every head coach fails in their first attempt, especially if they don’t have the right players. I believe McDaniels had Tebow as his QB so....

Bill B quit as head coach of the Jets in less than a day by writing his resignation on a paper napkin....

I don’t see his time in Denver as an impediment for McDaniels. The Indy thing would have to be discussed and guarantees in place to overcome a repeat of that

trener1 · #**2874** 01-05-2020, 09:15 PM

Yep, I agree with everything you said 100%, I am a Giants fan and would be thrilled if he came over here.
Non of that stuff would bother me at all.

The guy that ought to 'go' is belichick.....or at least get a better sideline wardrobe..
