Obviously the goat. Others may agree or disagree, but I'd like to see him retire and then the NFL can turn the page to the younger QB's for the beast in the league.
Brady
- Thread starter antirowboat
- Start date
I don’t see why Brady hanging around interferes with anyone’s enjoyment of watching the younger QBs.
I’ve watched Brady play since I’ve been in jr high when I really started to follow the nfl, barely remember the Favre , Marino, airman and elway years. Now that the mannings, Big Ben, Bree’s, rivers generations are done, it’s exciting to see some good young qbs coming into the fold, how many generations of qbs have some of you old timers seen in your years?
Well Norm Van Brocklin was great and an excellent coach as well but the original goat at QB was Otto Graham. Simply sensational.
Bart Starr, Roger Staubach, Terry Bradshaw, Fran Tarkington, Joe Namath, Kenny Stabler, Len Dawson
Joe Namath, Sonny Jurgenson, Johnny Unitis, Daryl Lamonica, Bart Star are a few that come to this "old timers" mind. I grew up when the AFL and NFL were two different leagues which eventually spawned the Super Bowl.
And furthermore, what a disgrace the NFL was when they refused to let Manning wear high tops as a tribute to Johnny after he passed.
Moon, Elway, Steve Young, Cowboys QB.....that was my QB era growing up.
Brady is the last one of his era now that Big Ben will be retired.

Man that Chiefs Bills game last night would’ve been so entertaining if Brady had retired last year. I just couldn’t bring myself to enjoy Mahomes and Allen while knowing Brady is still in the league.
Brady had no help last night. Losing all of the guys there were missing due to injury and the idiot WR's meltdown killed their chances. That one 4th down pass where it looked like he overthrew a TE was really a case where the WR stopped his route when he got to a hole in the zone right as Brady was releasing the ball. It would have been a huge gain if that no name WR had stayed on his route. OR it would have been a first down IF Brady had known he was going to stop in the hole in the zone. Shades of Smothers' last interception against Iowa.
I love TB12, but I don’t have sympathy for a QB who has Mike Evans, Gronk, and Fournette.
Losing Godwin and AB downgraded the best arsenal in the entire league to still a very good arsenal.
I want to punch Tom Brady in the face, I'm so sick of him.
But I am going to hate it when he retires. There is simply no arguing against the results.

Fran Tarkington.
Evans is not fast enough and Gronk is a shadow of his former self. A bigger problem for Brady though probably was not having his starting right tackle. I'm not shedding any tears for Brady. I'm just saying though that anybody writing Brady off for this game needs to think about factors that led to an OT loss. He's still got it.
