To be clear, I believe that the AFC East will see Tom Brady finish his career in New England. I don’t buy the talk that Brady is taking his talent to another city in 2020. In fact, I believe he will use the other teams as leverage to get the deal he wants from Patriot owner Bob Kraft.
The question many NFL fans have asked over the years is whether or not Tom Brady made the Patriots great or Bill Belichick made Tom Brady great. Leaving via free agency could give some insight into that, should the Patriots succeed without him or if Brady can succeed without Belichick.
