    The league will not be the same.

    It's now way easier, to win, you had to at some point slay Brady. Now that spectre isn't there.

    Redefined what success in the NFL looks like. Has created a record everyone will be compared too, and no one will ever match.

    Fuck you Tom Brady you magnificent bastard.

      I watched his recent doco series on ESPN. May not be the most gifted QB but his most valuable gift was an unrivalled work ethic and an unbelievable mental toughness

      @dice said in NFL Season 2020/21/22:

      I felt the same way for a while, but I'm convinced that Brady is the much better leader and can bring a lot of value to the team that isn't shown in the stats, so if I had to choose between the two to start a team, I might pick Brady.

      I've always seen parallels between him and McCaw.

      100% to both of these. If you had to pick someone to win a game, it's TB. His track record speaks for himself, primarily due to the intangibles. If you put him beside Rodgers (for instance) he's not as talented or capable a QB. Buuuut he wins the big and big moments (usually).

      A healthy dollop of luck helps, and incredible longevity. And playing under Belichek for years.

      GOAT for me

      If you need to pick a guy to win a game your life depended on, its Brady or Montana for me

        The NFC could suddenly get very weak for a while if Brady retires and Rodgers goes to Broncos.

        Almost all the young QB talent is in the AFC.

          The AFC is suddenly brutal.

          I think this move almost guarantees Rodgers won't go to the Broncos. That man needs another ring, and that chance just presented itself.

            I don't think he can win it in GB unless they make major upgrades. Or he engineered a move to SF 🙂

              For all the talk of Rodgers being a better QB

              Brady at my fucking age led all the decent metrics this year

              He's gar better than he's given credit for.

                @mariner4life he's efficient, not inspiring.

                Rodgers, Allen, Burrow made throws that give you a chubby

                  Brady gets yards, TDs and wins

                  I'll take that thanks.

                    I'd rather have a QB that makes clutch throws in the postseason rather than pretty throws in the regular season.

                      Brady is probably the goatiest of the 🐐s

                      (especially if you limit it to USA sports, and team sports)

                            This is some pass for the 1st TD. A sidearm laser beam on the run.

                              Mahomes is just toying with this defense. Too easy.

                                  3 drives, 3 TDs.

                                  Mahomes with only 1 incompletion so far.

                                    Bengals surviving on big run plays, and 1 gets to the house. Fuck they needed that.

                                      Agree with Romo a poor decision by Mahomes

                                          One thing I love about this sport is how the 2nd half rarely looks like the first.

                                          Teams are so good at making the necessary adjustments.
