As if he orchestrated JG to play well in limited action, get hurt, and dance around contract talks until some team came a knocking. Btw I don't think the Colts are missing Dorsett for Brisett. I like Brisett, but he's 26th in passer rating, 28th in TD's, 26th in Y/A, 18th in yards, 27th in completion percentage, and 19th in completion. Based off those stats he's the 24th best starting QB in the league. And the Colts are 2-6 and the only teams they managed to beat are currently winless. Now Dorsett wasn't a stud or anything, but for what he is and what Jacoby is it really wasn't a one sided trade. Now I don't think Belichick is trying to trick the Niner's but I think he prioritized keeping Brady in the short term over keeping Garopollo in the long term and if he wanted to keep Garopollo he could have moved on from Brady. The fact that he didn't does say something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soko Posted October 31, 2017 Share Posted October 31, 2017 They’re saying the Pats really wanted to keep Jimmy, but he made it clear that he wants to be the starter. So they kept him as long as possible to work a deal out, but at the end of the day couldn’t so they took what they could. Sucks they couldn’t keep him.

Kiwibrown Posted October 31, 2017 Share Posted October 31, 2017 Bill the benevolent. Last year he us a linebacker, this year san fran a QB. Next year I guess he will trade away Gronk to a last place team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would be ridiculous to start Garoppolo over Brady this season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Asciimo Posted October 31, 2017 Share Posted October 31, 2017 as an Eastern Illinois alum and pats fan, this sucks. silver lining is knowing that Brady plans on playing for at least a few more years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The 49ers didn't give up a second for 6-8 games. He'll get the tag if they can't make a long term deal happen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brissett's stats are lackluster, but he is playing on an awful, awful team. Yet it doesn't feel like he is the problem there. For him to come to a new team at the start of the season, and play the way he has on a bad squad is impressive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Who wouldn't try to have their cake and eat it too with the Brady/Graoppolo situation until the final hour? But Brady wants to keep playing so...what are gonna do? Oust Brady? No. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But he's also not showing enough to make me think NE regrets losing him. And you are right, nobody would get rid of Brady right now even if you only thought he had 2-3 more years left. He's been in all 6 of the last 6 AFCCG's, he's been in 3 of the last 6 Super Bowls, and he won 2 of them in historic fashion. The last 3 years he's been a minimum top 2 QB in the league imo, and he's playing the best and most consistent football he's ever played. Until there is something tangible there, every year I roll the dice on Brady. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blazer026 Posted October 31, 2017 Share Posted October 31, 2017 Like it for both teams. 49ers can try and sign him long term, or just tag him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
