Will Brady retire on his terms or will he try to hold on until noone wants him?

[VikingsAD28]

My guess is he plays 2 more years with the Pats and then goes elsewhere and fails miserably before retiring.

 

[Fountain City Blues]

Pats will hold onto him until he goes PeyPey on us with his health.

Are you seriously going there right now? He is the GOAT. Deal with it. Enjoy Sam Bradford BTW.

Just guessing, but I bet you're not more than 25 years old. There are a number of QB's that were better than Brady. The difference being that they played in an era where defense was allowed. Also, Brady's a cheater. * next to anything he accomplishes.

I'm 35. He's certainly in the top 3-4

Brady is one of the best of all time and definitely the best in his era.

He will retire a Patriot on his own terms.

Hard to imagine Bilichick letting his BF go somewhere else. I honestly think Brady would accept a demotion before going elsewhere.

I am in my mid 40s, and saw plenty of HOF QBs including Montana, Elway, Marino, Kelly, Bradshaw, Staubach, etc.

Brady is easily one of the greatest. The only matter worthy of debate is whether he is the GOAT. If he wins another, he will stand alone among SB winners at his position.

I'm not saying this as some fanboy, just a football fan who has seen four decades of this now.

BB has shown he doesn't get sentimental when making personnel moves. If he believes Brady is not worth his salary or that he can get more than Brady is worth in trade, he will do it.

However, I don't think that will happen. Tom Brady is a special case. He has always been willing to take a pay cut, thanks in large part to his filthy rich wife. So I see him retiring a Patriot, as he should.

 

[BF4L]

filthy rich smokeshow wife.

FIFY

 

[RobBase]

He'll play 10 more years then the Vikings will trade a 1st round pick for him.

 

[tabascojet]

He has won enough that I'd imagine when he decides he is done he will walk away on his own terms. Most veterans hang on too long to ring chase or can't let go of their football identity. And if the pats dont have him retire being a pat for life someone should be fired.

Time to test Tom for steroids.....

FIFY

 

[DirtDirtDirt]

Depends how long the steroids aren't detectable

 

[Anointed One]

Depends on the system... If he was the QB for the Seahawks this year, he would be retiring on the Doctors terms after week 1...

You mean Kraft --- Belichick would deal him in a heartbeat at the first signs of decline. Reference: Bernie Kosar

Exactly........if you pay close attention to BB, like after the game yesterday, he gets a bit irked when all the media wants to do is credit and talk about Brady

Did you see Bradshaw and Staubach from your womb with a view?

I was a little kid, I am 46, but I saw them.
