The irony of that costume is hilarious. Lol
I just noticed you're the same age as Brady. What are your thoughts on his primadonna, Millennial-style behaviors with Gronk and Amendola, etc, and constant need for attention as an adult?The irony of that costume is hilarious. Lol
Stevenson could be an X factor on offense. Remember that yes, Bolden got touches after White went down, but Stevenson was inactive - that doesn't mean that's the go-forward plan.
This D can be had, though the best place to take advantage of them is the middle and long range zones...which hasn't been the offense's forte this far. That said, it also hasn't been an area of focus, so who knows.
I don't expect Smith to continue to suck. Nothing in his history would predict what we've seen to date.
"Well I have 20 years -- I have 20 years of being there and obviously he's a great mentor for me," Brady said of Belichick. "And yes I think there's definitely great lessons I've learned from him. He's a great football coach, and he does a great job for his team. And, you know any player, I think they would just hope that their coaches give them everything they got. I'm sure every great coach wants every player to give them everything they got. And I think that's what makes a great relationship."
Brady also shared his feelings about his father, Tom Brady Sr., telling NBC Sports Boston last week that he personally felt "vindicated" by his son winning a Super Bowl last season with the Bucs and without Belichick.
"I've actually prepared a statement that I wanted to say, and it's really all that I have to say on the subject," Brady said jokingly. "Comments made by Thomas Edward Brady, a 77-year-old insurance company CEO who should know better at this point in his life, doesn't necessarily reflect the views or positions held by his son, Thomas Edward Patrick Brady Jr., so furthermore should Tom Sr. continue to speak out on behalf of his son without the express written consent, Tom Jr. reserves the right to eventually put him in a home against his will. That's all I have to say."
Nothing worse than blowhard Bruce Arians. Well, maybe Rex Ryan or Johnny Whinebaugh. Just the worst. What makes Brady a perfect match with Arians is the ego. They love that it's all about them.
It's only Monday and Arians is already running his mouth. BB made both Brady and Gronk's entire careers. Neither would have become what they have without BB and the structure he provided them. Made them men. How the revisionist history types want to try to tell us something else happened early in their careers is beyond me.
This will be a tough bittersweet week...

Great questions. I would be happy to answer this over on the Brady forum. Given this is a game thread, it would be better answer over there if you don't mind posting there.I just noticed you're the same age as Brady. What are your thoughts on his primadonna, Millennial-style behaviors with Gronk and Amendola, etc, and constant need for attention as an adult?
Do you think Brady should have ever been held accountable as the QB of the Patriots? Or, do you think his status put him above the team where his brand/individualism is more important?
Your strategy mirrors mine exactly. No news stories, no Quick Slants, no pre-game, no All-Access... It's already working for me, LOL.I have decided to ignore the hype and all the nonsense that comes with it.
I'll tune in just before the game starts and watch every minute of it as I usually do.
My main concern is can the OL problems get fixed. It is not that Tom is playing at Gillete. It is what it is.
A few days after the game all the hype will go away. I just hope that the OL concerns go away at the same time.
I was talking to some family last night that have season tickets and outside of some complaints with some wine and cheese crowd types showing up now at the games since Brady is gone and those annoyances with pink hats, he was saying the same thing about not listening or watching anything and I have to agree.I have decided to ignore the hype and all the nonsense that comes with it.

Agree with your point on Stevenson.Stevenson could be an X factor on offense. Remember that yes, Bolden got touches after White went down, but Stevenson was inactive - that doesn't mean that's the go-forward plan.

That's headscratcher number 10 for me so far this season. My gut tells me BB is concerned about leadership like he was during the last rebuild in 2009/2010.Agree with your point on Stevenson.
I never want to see Bolden with a handoff again.
