This ship is slowly sinking and they have been fortunate to be in the AFC East. I'm a Bills fan but i can admit its been the worst division for at least 15 years. They get the chump schedule and most years home field, they have had superior teams up til this year but its been a cushy ride. Brady will go down as one of the greatest QB's of all time but you are right he makes more mistakes now throwing and furthermore he is a sitting duck in the pocket. He never was a great scrambler he used to step one way or the other to buy time, now he just goes down. By upper management forcing the trade of Jim Garoppolo they just stuck a fork in themselves unless they find a miracle. That team laterally rode on his back this year and, Kraft is loyal to him til the end and the end is coming soon. I agree, 2018 may be it for him. If it isn't he has two seasons tops but it may not end pretty at that.
Your right. Kraft let sentimentality cloud his football sense. Branch Rickey always said better to get rid of a guy a year too early than a year too late.
Brady can still play but for how long? Garoppolo could be around for 10-15 years .Kraft made a mistake and Belichek knows it.It was a great run in this era of free agency. Probably won't be matched again.
Having said all that .Pats are favorites in Vegas to win it all next year.
