Brady has 7 SBs, he doesn’t need the money like Rodgers and he’d want to settle down somewhere warm, IMO :) 

 

Rodgers more likely than Brady, I agree. Brady went to Bucs because they had the pass catchers. What do the Titans have after trading away A J Brown?

I think Brady retires after the season. The only place he would go is SF IMO. Then again that makes the Lance move look even worse and then they still have Jimmy who is 15 years younger.

Brady will cost a lot less than Rodgers.  He’s a FA.  They can pick up the veteran receivers Brady needs in FA.  Not a big deal.


Yeah right, with the money they have invested in FA recently, the money already committed to Tannehill and the very reason they traded A J Brown (because they didn’t want to pay him $25 mil per year) makes it unlikely even if they had to pay Only $25 million for a QB.

They save 17m by moving away from Tannehill.  They’re good.

Prediction for bucs vs 9ers?

 

Bucs won't do anything until 5 mins left in the 4th.. the 49ers won't try to run the clock out. And give Brady a shot.. they score a TD being down 5 to win..


Plus Shanahan doesn’t do well in tight end game situations (Falcons SB as OC, Chiefs SB as HC both in 4th quarters), makes me lean Bucs too because Brady does better in tight end game situations

I agree too. He isn’t going to butt heads with Mahomes, Allen, Burrow etc. that he’s likely to play more frequently in the AFC during the home stretch of his career.

Yeah but if your QB is overwhelmed it doesn’t matter. Purdy is a rookie. Has played a lot of football in college though. Seems like it’s a very QB friendly offense. Kind of like what rams have showed with mcvay.


True. No denying Shanahan and McVay are superior play callers than anyone we’ve had since Arians.

 

It takes a combination of talent and play calling.

Were battling with you guys for draft position as well LOL.

Good thing for colts is they have two hard hands next two weeks. With way giants melted down today that one I am worried about winning. Then have to deal with Texans game.  Just watch colts are going to screw this up and beat Vikings or chargers.

Whats the prediction for you guys against the Vikings this Saturday?

that was a bad call lmao but Tom has benefited from the REFS for years.

I have no sympathy for them whatsoever for how many games they benefitted from the refs.

17-0 panthers. Lol

 

So far everything going as needed. Broncos were not not beating chiefs. 

Brock Purdy looks real nice.

Colin Cowherd picked the Panthers to win in his Blazing five picks for this week. I thought he was nuts.

When I watch SF play, each player plays for one another and they have fun playing. That is how we were in Andrew's rookie year. 2012 was such a fun season. 

I remember a certain game in 2012 that gives me nightmares. I can laugh about it now a decade later.

    • This is definitely an issue. So, either Ballard is A.) Cheap and he doesn't want to spend money on FAs (even with injuries happening) or B.) He can't build a competitive enough team to attract any worthwhile FA's after 7 going on 8 years now.    If AR and the current team can't attract FAs that could theoretically get a starting job at the S position for a year, then we are in big trouble according to the opinions of the players of the NFL. Personally, I think Ballard just avoids FA so much that he doesn't want to bring outside help in. He wants to be known as the GM who builds his team from the draft.   Wish the local media would call him out on this.
    • I think the Colts have the money to be competitive for a good free agent safety.  I think bringing in one of them may depend on whether a player like Simmons wants to play for the Colts.  They may be hoping to sign for a team with a better chance of making the playoffs.   So I don’t know if Ballard is making a statement or not?     Hope my answer makes sense to you….    
    • I believe he knows that offense is more important than defense.  And that an offense that controls the ball keeps our average defense rested.   I really can’t answer your second sentence until camp.  So let me ask you, as of right now isn’t Ballard saying there are no FA DBs (depth or starting safety) that we can afford who are better than what we have?   If he doesn’t bring someone is, that’s his stance, right?   The logic is that our O will put up enough that we can get by with an average D, IMHO.   Like I said, I’m being Mr. Obvious.      
    • The Jets completely shut down CJ Stroud last year. Their defense is elite, and they had 3 of the top CBs in the league. Pass rush and secondary is how you shut him down. We have the former. I'll be curious how the latter does for us this year.
    • Im trying to make sure I understand you.      You don’t think Ballard is actually trying to build only an average defense, do you?      He’s trying to build as good of a defense as he can.    Are we on the same page, or am I misunderstanding you?
