Good news if you’re a fan of the Patriots. Bad news if you’re a fan of any other NFL team. Kraft said yesterday that Brady wants to play for another 6 or 7 years. That give the Patriots almost another decade with the greatest Quarterback in NFL history under center. More importantly, he wants ‘ole Bill Belichick to coach well into his 80’s. So, anyone that thought there was a light at the end of the Patriots’ dynasty tunnel, there isn’t. It’s staying dark as hell.
I’d say the Belichick / Brady combo is good for another 3 (maybe 4 Super Bowls). Belichick himself? I mean, that’s like asking how many starts are in the sky. His championship opportunities are endless.
Breaking news: The NFL (allegedly) has just instituted a league-wide suicide watch.
Fun fact: The average NFL career is 3ish years. So, basically Brady is going to play for twice as long as the average 2017 Rookie.
This is bad news for Jimmy Garoppolo. Get the heck out of town, bro. Run.
