    Who’d be interested in Brady is an interesting question. The local talk show here in Maine was discussing it yesterday afternoon. One of the hosts is a Jets fan who hates Brady, but holds BB in almost mythical status believes only the Chiefs and Packers wouldn’t be buyers. He believes Jerry Jones would do almost anything to have him QB the cowboys and Dallas would be perfect for TB.
    Obviously it’s just one guys opinion, but was interesting to hear the discussion team by team.

      This may be smack, but I am trying to look at this in an objective way. Rivers looks almost done. Brady is talking funny talk these days, and he and his trainer are both selling their homes. He and his wife have a Hollywood look about them.

      Maybe he figures he has one more shot at doing something a bit different in football. Maybe he's tired of the system. He's done his part. And perhaps he can get a bigger payday, given what he would do to increase ticket sales.

      And if not The Chargers....where else? I would say "warm" weather, really good team including Oline/Weapons. Coaching staff he respects.

      I am quite sure he could easily find another landing spot if he wants a change.

        Sure, Belichick is the best coach in the NFL, but he hasn't won any super bowls without Brady. Brady is a great leader and can read defenses better than any QB in the league. In short, his football IQ his high, unlike Rivers who can't win in the playoffs. There is little chance that Brady would go to a dumpster fire like the Chargers. It's like going from Park Avenue to a country shack.

          How about retirement?

            According to Adam Schefter, Retirement or going to another team were more likely than him remaining as a Pat.

              Could he and Grease_lle afford to buy a football team?

              I know she makes more than he and if they’re able to find a partner could they perhaps make a bid on an available team?

                Adam Schefter has admitted he is just guessing. He doesn't have any sources that are feeding him this information.

                  Adam S is usually right. And he does not just yack for the sake of yacking.

                  Anyway...it's all speculation, so I do not expect Brady to leave or even retire until it actually happens.

                    He's usually right when his sources tell him something. In this case he has admitted he was just speculating...

                      But you know what....a week ago I would have said this was nonsense. But based on this and other reading/observation, I actually think there's a reasonable chance he does not wear a Pats' uniform next year.

                      Then who's your QB?

                        Their next QB is Jeff George.

                          Makes sense....maybe Rivers.

                            What about Drew Bledsoe or Matt Cassel?

                              Or what about Jimmy G....oh wait, he's 8 and 0 with SF! Lots of great years ahead. Could have been "the next one" in NE.

                                The scuttle butt Is that he and his wife have been scouting homes in Connecticut and have found one but will not buy until Ma. Home is sold. The trainer did sell his home but bought another one in Plymouth Ma.
