I think it's an interesting question. We all remember how Peyton Manning and Brett Favre went from MVP candidates to liabilities seemingly overnight. IMO, Brady appears to be starting to show his age. We might be seeing the twilight of his career. Here's a comparison to when most people think Manning started to show signs that he was nearing the end:
Peyton Manning's First 11 Starts of 2014
301/442
68.1%
3558 yards
8.1 YPA
34 TDs
9 Ints
109.5 QB Rating

Tom Brady's First 11 Starts of 2017
279/408
68.4%
3374 yards
8.3 YPA
26 TDs
3 Ints
111.7 QB Rating

Peyton Manning's Final 5 Starts of 2014
94/155
60.7%
1169 yards
7.5 YPA
5 TDs
6 Ints
78.7 QB Rating

Tom Brady's Final 5 Starts of 2017
106/173
61.3%
1203 yards
7.0 YPA
6 TDs
5 Ints
81.6 QB Rating

I think it'll be interesting to see how Brady looks in the playoffs.

The Patriots' "magic" in the playoffs is Bill Belichick's defense. He's been limiting better teams for a long time now.

IMO the Patriots won't be done until Belichick leaves. Brady has benefited from playing for him more than the other way around.

I don’t think he will go another year. Patriots will probably get to the Super Bowl. But they won’t have an easy time winning. They gave up on JG way too early.
 
Next year will be the curtain call.

But this year they are in position to win the AFC and possibly the SB.
 
Yes..he is the goat but there is not beating nature. Pats could be screwed very soon if they don't find a new qb
 
Seeing him being carried off the field, blowing snot bubbles out of the earhole of his helmet, like a battle warrior would be a fitting end.

There was a ton of discussion on the radio today, about Billacheat wanting out of NE after the season. He's been rumored to be preparing his staff for job interviews. Something he's never done before. Also, some are stating that he is pissed about the Garropolo deal to SF.
Who knows?

I would like to see what Brady would do with a different Coach.

This is a wonderful analysis.

Let's not forget that Father Time is the undefeated, undisputed Champeeen of the World.

I think during the season next season, we'll see his inevitable decline and the complaints about shipping Garappolo out will be loud.

At the hands of Aaron Donald.

Note the lack of blue text on my part.

Don't want to see anyone injured.

But snot bubbles? Oh yeah. That cheating needs karmic punishment.

Oh shit yes!

After throwing 4 picks, 99 puts him out of his misery.

Can’t happen soon enough!
 
I'm enjoying watching the final start of the tail spin into oblivion. It's even better than we are trending up for years to come.
 
Brady's not going to cause a tailspin dudes. In 2008 Brady was out after one game, the Patriots still won 11 games on the back of the 8th best scoring defense. Oh and with Matt Cassell they scored 410 points (8th on offense).

It's about Belichick. He's the MFing man.

Colin Cowherd lays out that this is likely Belichick's last year in New England.

I truly hope so. Because Brady without Belichick is gonna get LIT UP!!!
