go back and read the arguments. I have presented a rock solid argument as I always do and even if you disagree there's not a knowledgeable person connected to the NFL whether as Coach, scout, announcer, player, GM, fan, etc... who could make an argument that Tom Brady is not an all time great.
Players care. Follow Patrick PetersonVerified account@RealPeterson21 Well done @NFL ..........#DeflateGate _
DonteHitner ✔ @DonteWhitner I honestly feel bad for Tom Brady!! I know first hand the type of competitor he is & how much work he puts in... Came down too hard on him! Steve Weatherford ✔ @Weatherford5 Tom Brady suspended 4 games.... That's just ridiculous. They are comparing it to steroid use. Preposterous! What are your thoughts? Jake ballard ✔ @TheJakeBallard 4 games?? What a joke! Tom Brady's getting the same suspension as PED users... Crime does not match the punishment #lostmorerespectfortheNFL
I'm not going to scour twitter for reaction but to say the players don't think it's a big deal is absolute bullshit. There are players who think it's not a big deal, players who think he got railroaded. I don't think anyone has claimed otherwise. But there many that think it IS a big deal, and think his punishment is a slap on the wrist and should have been far worse. Lets deal in facts here and not opinion disguised as facts. _
Most connected w/ the game do not think it is a big deal. Lying is a big deal and he clearly lied but the slightly underinflated ball is not a big deal.
what is the basis for this claim? Adam Schefter himself was on ESPN radio less than 10 minutes ago saying the exact opposite about people connected to the game
FOX Sports Live @FOXSportsLive 45m45 minutes ago .@JTTheBrick: Anybody who compares Tom Brady to Joe Montana should be committed.
We all have our own opinions but none of us can speak for "most" of the players. Anyone assuming they know how "most" of the players feel is making it up. _
Hahahaaa funny dude. JT The Brick @JTTheBrick · 18h18 hours ago The moment when every rational sports fan understands that #Tom Brady took a huge hit except for a few thousand delusional #Patriots fans. _
Brady isn't the greatest Qb in the history of the game and wouldn't be even if strapped a jet power pack on his back. He never was. But he's HOF and as a non Brady fan that's hard to admit. But Deflategate didn't affect much on the field as was proven in games when he had regulation balls. Most NFL players know this. But there's many NEP haters in the NFL. But most guys know this was really a minor advantage.
do some research yourself. check the quotes and ask some players/coaches on your own. Let me know what they say.
6 SBs, 4 DB titles, rescued BB, rescued the Pats franchise, 3 SB MVP awards, consistently keeps his team in contention every year, most playoff wins. If he's not #1 he's really, really close.
