Father time and Tom Brady...

There will come a time very soon when he starts losing his abilities. Father time isn't kind and he comes on fast.

I know he had a good year last season, but it can't go on forever. He is one injury away from it being over. I don't see him making it the entire season being in his forties. 

He is the GOAT and deserves the title. But reflexes get slower and injuries just don't heal well. Don't think he will have a stellar return and this will be is last hurrah. Not worried about playing an early forties Brady coming out of retirement.

favre fell of a cliff. he went from looking slow but gritty in competent dragging the vikings to a championship game to looking like sam darnold's headlight-crossed deer eyes with the jets a season later.

I believe you have it backwards, Jets traded for him first(cause GB didnt want him on Viking/division teams) and he looked terrible. They traded or cut him and he ended up on the vikings and looked MVP-ish until the saints tee'd off on his head during the playoffs...

Yep, it was Jets first then Vikings.

Peyton Manning fell off the cliff pretty fast. Had 1 ok season by Peyton manning standards then was absolutely terrible the next

Visually you can tell he’s already fallen off a bit but similar to the Wizards version of MJ, if you give him open shots he’s going to make them… same thing with Brady, if he has all day and a clean pocket to throw from then he’s going to make the pass. The Bucs have an elite OL outside of LG. If they continue to keep that line in tact then Brady will still be able to get them to the playoffs unfortunately.

In a rare turn he also played poorly for jets and I believe he was 40 when he joined the viking and had a MVP type season.

He hated the big city life- His HUGE ego could not take walking down the streets with no one caring, he wanted people to mob him for autographs/go crazy/scream. True story.

Favre was driven by revenge in Minnesota. That's where he wanted to go and the Packers blocked him and sent him to the Jets. He spent his year in exile then came back and had one of the best years of his career.

    • I'm still not touching Hunter He again said the other day that he plans on playing both sides of the ball in the NFL.  If he is allowed to do that, he won't be as good on either side as his potential and he's going to have serious injury issues and have a short career.  If he's not allowed to do it, I think he's going to become a problem when the team isn't winning as he's going to feel him not being used on both sides of the ball is why. He's being coddled in that environment with Deion and I think it's doing a disservice to him to prepare him for life in the NFL where your coach isn't a 2nd father to you, to where you can just walk into his locker room and steal his shoes like Hunter does to Deion.
    • He’s a tad behind them. Around 15ish of 32 starters in the league. He’s well ahead of a lot of guys. Tua, Bryce, Cousins (present), Rodgers (current), Devito/Jones, Minshew, Russ (current), Watson, Smith, Carr, T Laws deep ball is weak as poo IMO, there’s plenty. And it’s not like everyone is ripping 60+ers. The key component is if you can rip and maintain velocity of the 30-40 yarders which he does super well. Legit every report out there from Brugler to PFF to PFN document him as good/above average arm strength.  Eye test tells me it’s pretty much that as well, slightly above average.
    • 6-10 carries for  35-45 yds and 3-5 catches for 15-25 would be great.
