Hot take from me Pats roll through 2019 Easily win Super Bowl Truly ruined football for over a decade for me Much respect and disgust for those sneaky cheating pieces of shit. Football starts in 2025 when Brady and Belli retire.
The Nfl needs to investigate this. It isnt like Belichick and co haven't been caught before. I honestly think that the Pats, while blatantly don't intend to out and out cheat in every case, try everything in the gray area to constantly gain an edge. In this case if they tampered it would be a violation of the rules aka cheating, but it might be pretty hard to prove. I would imagine there were several go betweens with AB/his agent and the Pats. If players arent allowed to retire from one team and then come back out of retirement to change teams, why isnt this behavior also covered in the rules? Sure, the Raiders didnt have to release him, but the type of contracted prompted them to do so. At the very least he should have gone through waivers and not been an automatic free agent. If the bad guys keep winning I am going to follow another sport because this just goes against everything that makes for fair play in a league.
I'm with you, but someone else could explain the rules better. He's a 5+ year vet, so not subject for waiver wire. Retirement I'm not clear on, except years left on contract. Ryan Kalil finished out his contract i believe, so could sign with any team
You mean like we did with revis? Dude took a 21 mil guaranteed money paycut to play with the pats. He left 21 mil on the table. If a player is willing to do that there is only one thing to do. Build an organization good enough where a player will do that to play there.
You do have to give the a Patriots organization credit for one thing - they have no shame. They know that 95% of all football fans and media members will think there was tampering, and they simply don’t care.
Pats tried to trade for Brown while he was a Steeler, but Steelers would not trade him in division or to the Pats. Could've started in March.
They don't care and why should they. Its them against the World and their winning. When's the last time the Jet fans enjoyed success?
Who thinks like this? Why would you say something so assinine? Are you 10 years old? You want a player on another team to take out Darnold's knees? Brady has never been our problem, it's been OUR franchise that has been a disaster.
That's nonsense. Your hatred would be better directed toward the class of clowns that have mishandled every aspect required to establish a winning football team. Being light years behind the Patriots goes much deeper then Brady.
So you are a Jets fan from Massachusetts huh? I am a Jewish from Iran then? Be yourself. No need to troll and act like a Jets fan. We welcome non-troll Pats fans here.
Too funny. It's okay to suggest ending a players career on a intentional dirty hit but God forbid someone suggest the Jets past failures are self inflicted. Get a life.
The "Patriot Way" is what got Brown to New England in the first place. Could've started in December for all we know. Whenever it started, the Raiders need to file tampering charges with the league.
