I hope Bob Kraft gets embroiled in a crippling legal case that ultimately results in ceding his ownership of the team to one of his family members that doesn't give a single shit about football. They care so little about the team that they grant the CEO position to their entitled and inept fuccboi-faced nephew, who proceeds to drag the team to the depths of the NFL for over a decade while taking credit for far-and-few triumphs. You and your kids will have to suffer being the laughing stock of the AFC (L)east, with the only agonizing comfort you have to fall back on is the glory days of Harbaugh Belichick.

I am butthurt

Still don't know how he can still do it. I once believed that when Harrison went to the Bengals, he was done. I still don't understand how select few linemen/pass rushers can do what the do into their mid-30s and beyond at a high level

Just hyperbole. That's what happened to the 49ers basically...

You'll see what I'm getting at though, eventually

Heart says Seattle, Head says Atlanta
Patriots
Steelers
Green Bay

It's a bummer Watt isn't playing. Brady needs some pressure this week if the Texans pull off an upset. Would be nice to see an old teammate put a hurting on him!

He should be a beast next year, look how much muscle he put on! Might be a back up QB when Osweiler sucks again!

Texans are lucky they even won that division. Titans were a much better team and are a better team moving forward..

And I agree about New england... They have an expiration date but when will it be. seems like they've been a dynasty for almost 3 decades now lol

Brady is not noticeably degrading with age. Supermodel wife must be a fountain of youth.

^ Joneill touched on it this year. They are both complete health freaks. They'll go vegan for full weeks. Helps that they can afford the best chefs and food I'm sure.

Not possible
He doesn't know if he's playing 1:00 or 4:00 games next season.

NFL plan, LA didn't give a shit about football, let's move 2 teams there (one in a 30k soccer stadium for 2 years), Rams and Chargers worth more?

I'm sure there is more than just food. I imagine neither of them drink alcohol.

No need to post the whole story, but here are just two clips about his schedule and drinking

Short Version https://www.bostonglobe.com/sports/2...wIK/story.html

Long Version Tom Brady looks better than ever for New England Patriots | SI.com

Let’s start here: Brady is a quarterback whose daily schedule, both in and out of season, is mapped clearly into his 40s. Every day of it, micromanaged. Treatment. Workouts. Food. Recovery. Practice. Rest. And those schedules aren't just for this week, this month, this season. They're for three years. That allows Brady and Guerrero to work in both the short and long terms to, say, increase muscle mass one year and focus on pliability the next. "The whole idea is to program his body to do what we want it to do," says Guerrero. "We don't let the body dictate to us. We dictate."


Vacation: On a typical vacation day, Brady works out, goes to the beach, naps according to a schedule, surfs, and then works out for a second time. Brady goes to sleep early and tends to avoid drinking alcohol.

The Chargers and Rams moving to LA has nothing to do with the fans, its all about money and power for the NFL as a business organization. They need to have platforms in NY and LA, simple

I'm sure Brady's not doing something completely different than a good amount of the long lasting pros. First off, he rarely gets hit. Second yes he has all the money in the world to hire pros to help steer his direction. Third he is very dedicated in that sense that he's not partying like a moron like most of the idiots in the league. Fourth, he's getting supplemental treatment that's not yet detectable in order to help recovery. Because as you age, that's the first thing to go. Props to him for sticking with all of the above, I'm not taking anything away from him. I'm just saying I see James Harrison lift sick weights the day after a game and he's a linebacker who hits every play and he's still going but obviously nowhere near as effective as Brady.

It seems Spanos' main reason is that the gov't didn't want to help fund the stadium so he was like fuck this I'll go somewhere where they'll get me one like Inglewood.

I love conspiracy theory's so blaming the city just looks like a good excuse. Now that two teams will be in LA, the new stadium is guaranteed a home game every week. $$$$$$ for everyone involved

I`ve been kind of following the NFL`s push to get Football teams into L.A. I saw pressure being put on Spanos from Goodell to move the team to L.A. I`m sure a lot of money was promised.

Sorry for San Diego.

Anyone in their late 30's and beyond can appreciate the kind of self discipline all this takes. While I'm not an enormous fan of Brady, what he's doing here with his body, his health, and his game, an this kind of self-discipline is world class.
