Tom Brady finally retires?

[KG1]

Tom Brady is reportedly finally retiring from the NFL after 22 seasons. Love him or hate him there's no denying that he is one of the greatest, if not the GOAT QBs. Ben Rothlisberger has already preceded Brady in hanging up the cleats this season. Now howbout you Aaron Rogers? Whatcha' gonna do? You gonna follow Brady?

 

[Ingomike]

Rodgers will not retire this year even if he had already planned too. He is far to competitive to enter Canton as second fiddle to Brady. He will quit when he will be the headliner for HOF induction…

I dunno. I think Rogers still has a lot in him. And I'm certainly no Rogers fan. I have a suspicion that he's gonna end up in Denver.

But that aside, it's a TB thread. I like that he's going out on top. Despite the loss to the Rams, Brady finished at the top of QB rankings.

Definitely not gonna retire. I have a hunch that he'll soon be a Bronco. But if not in Denver, I think he'll get the trade he wants. He finished 2nd in the NFL to Brady, so he still has the chops.

 

[DoggyDaddy]

I've never been a TB fan, not by a long stretch, but there's no denying that the records he set over his career will likely never be broken in any of our lifetimes.

Maybe not?

This is the way I'm thinking it will go as well. Rogers is pretty much the only long-time marquee QB left after Rothlisberger and Brady's retirement. I agree with you jamil. I think he's done with the Packers and there's talk about him landing with the Broncos which would be a plus for the Bears if he left the division.

Anyway, props to TB. Wasn't a big fan but I'm with DD. I'll not deny his talent and longevity in the league. Happy Trails to the reigning GOAT.

Maybe not?

Well, a lot of people will have egg on their collective faces if indeed he hasn't made up his mind. Come to think of it I haven't seen anything official from Brady himself nor has anyone else that I'm aware of. They've all been reporting that it's pretty much a done deal based on ESPN NFL insider Adam Shefter's "breaking news".

Who’s Tom Brady??

Who’s Tom Brady??

Just some guy.

Now he can throw all the under-inflated footballs he wants without being punished!

 

[KG1]

Maybe not?

Seems to be a lot of confusion going on now. Brady himself will have to clarify what's really going on and soon. I'm sure he's probably just a little bit pissed right about now how all this is unfolding like wildfire within sports media.

I don't think Rodgers isn't going anywhere. Green Bay would only trade him to the AFC (unless some dumb team like the bears wants to send them 7 first round picks or something).

Now look at what you have in the AFC:
Mahomes
Allen
Burrow
Herbert
L Jackson

The balance of QB power is n the AFC. If Rodgers wants to go to a Super Bowl the path is in the NFC. And going to Denver? Why? Looks more like a lateral move where he doesn't have the time and practice in with the rest of the players. His best chance seems to me to be with GB.

The wild card is his very woke fiance'. The rumor had been that Rodgers wanted to go to a Cali team. The 9ers drafted a guy in the 1st last year, LAC has Herbert. LAR has Stafford. Packers are the class of the NFCN and as such will be in the running for 1st seed. Doesn't guarantee anything but if I'm AR then I don't want to have a potential Super Bowl run having to beat Mahomes, Allen, and Herbert. You want to be able to do it like Brady did. Face a bunch of bums until the big game.

That would explain his man bun.

 

[MrSmitty]

Tyler Huntley, the backup QB for the Ravens is a beast, I would love to see him picked up by us if ARod does leave...were da&n sure ain't going anywhere with Jordan Love......

 

[KG1]

Apparently, Brady's agent has put out a statement saying that it's not over until Tom Brady says it over. He says Brady recognizes the business end, so he expects a statement one way or the other to come out soon.

Howbout this scenario? If you want to do it like Brady did then why not do it exactly like that. If TB does retire Rogers makes the move to the Buccaneers?

Good analysis…

First Breyer retires from the Supreme Court and now Tom Brady retires from Tampa Bay. Wonder if the Bucc’s will replace him with a black woman.
