Mind boggling how gullible people are. I highly doubt it will ever be exposed, though. I don't know who Brady sold his soul to, but he's getting every last cent out of that deal.
It’s a Lance Armstrong situation… Brady has enough resources and support to develop an elaborate PED strategy that avoids detection. [Reply]

But the guy goes to a completely different team and won the Super Bowl his first year there...at age 43...and looked fantastic while doing it. And even though he beat us, at least he won't be in the way of us making the Super Bowl anymore.
I'll celebrate when he retires as much as anyone, but at some point you just have to tip your cap and try to appreciate that how good he is. He's one of the few players in NFL history that are pretty much undisputed as the "goat".
Brady is clearly a great player. His 5000 yard season with Moss, Welker, and Hernandez (lol!) is proof of that.
What I hate about him is he's getting shit ass fucking lucky all the goddamn time in his later years, and people are claiming that's all him. I know football is a game of inches, and every QB out there has had some good and bad breaks in their careers that did or did not lead to championships, but this motherfucker is taking it to the extreme.
Had Dee Ford not lined up offsides, the Chiefs win, and Brady finishes that game with 1 TD and 3 INTs. You can also shave off all of his late game passing yards (about 100 of them). He would have been in his 40s against a young cannon of a QB, and he would have looked like utter fucking dogshit so much that people would remember his late career for choking, not winning. One fucking offsides away.
This one less so, but again in a conference championship, he gets to face the Packers without both starting tackles (hmm... how interesting) AND Aaron Rodgers doesn't run in for the easy TD. That one isn't as close of a call, since it was just bone-headedness from the opposing QB, but what was Brady's statline? Yep. This time he actually did throw 3 picks. If he loses that game, people look at him yet again as a choker.
How about losing two straight SBs to the Giants, and on his next one he gets a gift from God when his defense bails him out on that Wilson goal line INT? He loses that one, and he joins illustrious shit ass names like Horseface in the "lost three straight SBs" category. He still would have plenty of chances to get back to the big game, but the cards would certainly be stacked more defiantly against him at that point.
I know the Tyree helmet catch and the Eagles loss and all that can be argued the other way, but those other three examples are the kinds of jaw droppingly lucky ass breaks that you see maybe once in an illustrious career. Brady's had it happen to him three times, all occurrences within the last 25% of his career.
That's not greatness. That's not as a result of preparation or Marianne Williamson magnetic faith healing bullshit he believes in. That's just stupid ass fuckery that he fell ass over tea kettle into.
If I'm an all-time great like Dan Marino or Jim Kelly and I look at all the horseshoes that fall out of Brady's loose butthole, I'd want to throw a goddamn ax through my TV every time I watch one of his Super Bowls. What the hell did that motherfucker do to snatch magic like that and wind up winning championships he had no business winning? And why do I look at my trophy case and see zero wins, and why do I look at my career highlights and find NONE of the lucky ass breaks this dipshit gets?
I don't believe in karma, and I don't believe that luck has to balance out or regress to the mean or anything like that. But man, if those universal rules did apply, Brady would get Alex Smith'd on the first play of next season, the bacteria would work its way through his body, and he'd wind up as a brain in a jar for the rest of his life.

As long as he has good health, doable arm strength, and a OL that can keep him clean, he can play for 3 more yrs IMO. [Reply]
Until theres another brand that can compete with Madden, it will always be nothing more than a $70 roster update.
Yep, the trailer just popped up on my Facebook page. Same old player movements and graphics. Literally not a single difference.
It's sad, NFL 2K was going to run away with the market which is why EA swindled an exclusive rights deal. Such a complete joke, the game is unplayable at this point. [Reply]

So actually it's nothing like your loser QB.
The word in league circles is that Mahomes has a down year this year.
Think it's because of his lack of production in the super bowl. [Reply]
