I never said anywhere that Super Bowl success is built upon an "aged" veteran. My reply was to the statement that QBing in today's NFL is now a "young man's game". I was trying to point out that this is not true and success more often comes as a result of talent and/or experience for a QB. I'll take that over fresh young legs or a young strong arm any day.

Personally, I believe that Brady is a cheater. The Pats are always getting busted for cheating. Don't forget deflate gate. I believe that he is taking something that isn't allowed and the league just doesn't test the golden boy.

If he comes back he is effectively playing for 1 millions dollars

He has always taken his NFLPA stuff seriously and i don't see him all of a sudden turning away from that.

If he want's to play for a million and is healthy then the front office needs to decide if they think Winston is a future starter and asking him to not play again this year will be a massive kick in the nuts for him and there would be a big chance he walks. Unless they think that next year they would be in a really good position to go after Watson or Wilson next year.

Plus the number of calls he gets in his favor from the refs Rugs. Don’t underestimate how important those have been to his success. Does anyone believe a Brady lead team would have had the PI call missed in the NFCCG like the Saints did?

But would we win a Superbowl with 2020 Cam Jordan at DE?
