Tom Brady to leave Patriots (UP: Signing with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers according to Colin Cowherd)

Going to the Bucs, eh? Well, he's definitely better than Winston.
My best friend is a Bucs fans, so he's going to be happy.

Because he is probably the top quarterback available in a pretty decent FA class.
That is an interesting and peculiar way of saying, "this is the best part."
Any team that signs Brady to a 30 million dollar a year contract is going to be paying him for what he has done not what he will do going forward.
At least Bill is still in the AFC Least. I'm not ready to trust the Bills just yet.
As a Bostonian who follows the Pats (yay for DVR'd games, 30m long with no break in action!) but isn't really a big American Football fan this story actually interests me a lot more than it should just because I need a distraction from Coronavirus and sports are all shut down.
I don't know if "exposed" is the right word, but I do think Brady is in for a bit of a wakeup call. He was struggling as it was the tail end of last season, partly due to time catching up with him and partly for the team as a whole having a few more holes in it position wise (losing Gronk really hurt) and lack of synergy. I don't know what he's thinking doing this - I guess money but it's possible he's that over confident in his own abilities. Maybe just doesn't want to retire with his final play being a pick-6.
I don't think Bill will look too bad though. Yeah the 2020 team is going to be a considerable step down but he pretty much gets a get out of free jail card next year with Brady leaving. 2021 (if he sticks around) will be a better judge.

I have absolutely zero love for the Patriots and Boston sports in general but anyone thinking anything will be proven next year if Brady or the Pats flop is a clown. Nothing lasts forever, it doesn't mean they were frauds all along.
Looks like its the bucs according a source via Adam Schefter.
Which is so odd.
1. It could be about the money... but that is just next level greed. His wife makes more than him. He has other ventures.
2. Going to California would have been a homecoming... but going to Tampa Bay?????
3. He wants to win another ship... I don't think Tampa Bay is the place for it but whatever.
4. His relationships with the Pats was soured beyond repair and his cordial and respectful nature with the press and social media is just him being respectful/a front.
5. He's bored and wants to know what its like to play Football somewhere else. He sees this as a proving ground that he's still got it.

I really dont see how its odd.
1. Calling Brady next level greed after taking below market value for his entire career is insanity. He deserves to be paid like he always should have been.
2. There have been rumors about him wanting to locate in FL for tax purposes in addition to having ownership in a team like the dolphins.
3. TB has a scary good collection of offensive weapons and an underrated defense. He can absolutely win here.
4. Probably.
5. Could be.
Exposed? Even if they both have losing season, it's not really "exposing" them. They won for 20 straight years. They're both old.
The Bucs? That team makes the least sense out of all of the options out there. I guess he has a stud to throw to in Mike Evans but were they even good on the defensive end?
Either way, he's still the GOAT, just like Jordan is still the GOAT despite not winning a title with the Wizards.

Godwin, Evans, OJ Howard (if they give him the ball) with a QB focused head coach. Makes the most sense to me.
I've be only been following the NFL for 40 yrs. who else plays in the Bucs Division? Battlehawks?
Offensively, sure, but the Bucs' defense ranked among the worst in the league last season. A 43 TB is not going to be able to win games by outscoring every team he faces.
Lol they'll be fine without a QB throwing like 30 ints a season
Their run defense was really good, I think their defense is more a case of needing to plug some holes than needing a complete revamp.
I'm not saying you're wrong. I see him moving away from NE due them not getting talent around him. His best WR was a college QB while Hopkins and Diggs were just traded.
True, true. lol
Now I need the Pats to sign Rivers and win the SB lol
His love for the town might be the only thing to quell his disappointment today.
I seriously need to know why people keep saying it makes no sense. It makes perfect sense.
