Tom's mental ability to quickly analyze defenses and react accordingly has always been his greatest strength.

This is the defining trait of a franchise QB. Brady has off the charts intangibles and a competitive fire. No one will say that he is the best athlete on the field but he knows how to win. Peyton Manning is a poor athlete but was cerebral and studied his craft the hardest. Our next QB has to have these traits, not just the strongest arm or the fastest 40 time.

FWIW, an article I read earlier, which was from cbs sports, said those closest to him were expecting him to make an announcement this coming week.  The thinking being he respects the game too much to overshadow the games tomorrow or make the announcement during Super Bowl week.  Waiting until the dust has settled from the Super Bowl would put the Bucs in a lurch, assuming his decision is to hang them up.

Those same people expect he will retire, but nobody has said he has finalized that decision.

Lol now they saying reporting is wrong and Brady hasn’t made a decision yet.

Both Peyton and Brady had huge arms in their primes. They were just statues. They definitely had to rely on their brains when they got up in age but these weren’t some chad Penningtons. They could chuck the fug out of the ball.

That's a damn good reason to retire.

Not as good as prime Cam but pretty good nonetheless. 
 

Enjoy retirement Tom
