EDIT: Timeline below.
1. Darlington & Schefter report Brady is retiring.
2. TB12, Tom’s brand/company, tweet (then later delete) about his retirement.
3. Toms teammates tweet about his retirement.
4. Tom’s agent, dad, Arians, and Licht all say Tom hasn’t decided yet.
5. Ian Rappaport says many sources confirm Tom plans to retire but the pushback is due to timing.
6. Tom announces retirement again in 2023. [Reply]

He broke the DPI record last year with 27...it was 20 before. Chiefs had 4 in 2021. That's like obliterating the rushing record with 2500 yards...unprecedented greatness. *cough* [Reply]

Literally his father, agent, coach, and GM have all said it’s not true, no decision has been made nor have they been informed of anything.
What is your problem?
You know damn well that's exactly what took place. There is no source because that's how Brady planned it. He leaked it to a guy who sent it to a guy who got it buzzing among the team which caused Schefter to come snooping, and then got the tip and sent it out.
Adam Schefter didn't need to be the first one to break this. He wasn't desperate. It's rare for him to make mistakes like this. [Reply]

So pretty much everyone close to Brady says it’s not true or at least haven’t heard anything, and you say “that can’t be possible” “Schefter doesn’t make mistakes like this”
Uhhh, so what you’re saying is one of these people close to brady told Schefter, Schefter reported it, they backtracked on it and now Schefter is just sitting on his hands while everyone looks at him as an idiot for reporting a non true story? Got it, nice to know that’s where your brain has brought you to. [Reply]
Retired or not. Love him or hate him, he deserves to be the one to announce it. This trash that someone had to scoop makes me lose even more respect for those "journalists" [Reply]

Having respect for any journalist is a fail. [Reply]

True But in 2021 they only got 12
Matt Ryan got 10 roughing the passer calls for 2021, Tom Brady got 1.
2020 Pittsburgh got 19 DPI and Miami also got 19. 1 shy away from the previous “record” of 20 lol….. so nothing crazy about breaking 20 when these two teams damn near did it.
Not to mention you had Brady throwing the ball to gronk, AB, Godwin, and mike evans. If mahomes had that amount of weapons, he’d break that record as well. Defenders would be holding like crazy.
