The fact of the matter is that his O-line from the Super Bowl Run and surrounding personnel have changed. It's one thing to lose a WR...but he lost three o linemen and his top TE...his WRs aren't doing him any favors. He frustrates the SHIT out of me at times...letting the clock run out in Game 1, was it? Still...Brady never had the super bowl run he had and the fucker hasn't won shit since they caught the team cheating...
No you can bring that in when you make statements about his contract affecting YOUR team's ability to bring in FA and sign current players. Joe isn't the only one earning a paycheck on this team.
I guess I don't help much...basically, I'll take each game as it comes. The secondary performed well against a rookie QB. Our O-line and Joe can't handle a majority of blitzes...9-7...no playoffs...
