BOSTON (CBS) – Tom Brady continues to prove he’s doing just fine at 43 years old. On Sunday, he can earn himself more than $500,000 as a result.

ESPN’s Adam Schefter broke down a variety of contract incentives players around the league can reach during Week 17.

Among them was the former Patriots quarterback, who has put together a strong first season with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

If Brady remains in the Top 5 in the NFL for passing yards by the end of the regular season, Brady will earn a $562,000 incentive. Entering Tampa’s matchup against the Falcons, Brady currently sits at No. 5.

Its looking that way. Although Jesus Christ would have a hard time coaching this team to a .500 record. Probably not as much talent as the Jets in Foxborough.

No one to blame but the GM, right????

Who might that be????

[44 Mag]

Point fingers at whoever you may.... I blame the front office.... they knew Brady was getting older... and could walk at anytime... They should of been prepared 2 years in advance. Kraft ain't so cocky now... is he?

Just at the massage parlors.............

Yeah, he'll be the backup for the pat's. Stidham isn't the answer and they know that, and after 11 years as a back up, Hoyer is done. They will need someone who knows the system a little bit, albeit a very little.

In the words of Aaron Rodgers...R-E-L-A-X.

Belichick is just fine...Every team has to rebuild after a dynastic run.

Don't ignore the WUHAN WALK-OUTS.

Didn't all teams have those issues???? Maybe not..... maybe the opt outs didn't feel like playing for someone.....

Full of hate for Bellichick.
Move on with some thing positive in your life.

I don't care for chopped liver but I don't prattle on about it.

Good Luck today!

Brady lost 5 of his last 9 games in New England...

The team tuned into shit while Brady was still at the helm...

in the regular season and playoffs Bill Belichick is 248-75 with Brady as the starter and 25-27 with anyone else in his time with the Patriots.

Remember Bill Belichick with the Browns without Tom Brady, looked just like the Patriots this year

[EveryMothersSon]

agreed. many people will believe that it was more Brady. the patriots lost much of their defense, newton was poor, edelman was injured and so was their OL.

before the season, if I had to quantify the weight by both bellicheck and brady, I would say it was 80 20 bellicheck. that has not changed much. people forget that tampa is VERY talented team, and while brady defied the odds at 43 and had a very good year, I suspect many QBS take tampa to at least 10 wins.

[SBR_Guest_Pro]

good point

[floki]

Tom Brady in 1st yr. w/out Bill Belichick: 10-5. Playoffs with Bucs' team hadn't made playoffs in 13 years.

Belichick 8 yrs. w/out Brady: 61-71, .462 win pct. 1 playoff trip in 8 years.

Rex Ryan 8 yrs. w/out Brady: 61-66 .480 win pct. 2 playoff trips.

Just the facts.

[floki]

Belichick: Hello?
Brady: Do you miss me yet?
Belichick:

[ThaTopMoron]

quit sucking the rooster of a 43 who didn't do shit but beat up on all the non-playoff opponents he faced while looking suspect, poor and outright bad against the better defenses he faced.

who did they face to end their season again? atlanta, lions and atlanta....

only playoff opponent in his division went 2-0 against Tampa

how many wins did Carolina have again?

their best win was early in the season being the first hiccup for the Packers and the defense got that blowout setup early with a pick 6 followed up with more short fields for Brady


and he's only doing it with lots of steroids at his age, only reason he hasn't suffered a bad injury yet is because everytime he gets pressured he throws the ball up for grabs for anyone or tries to throw it as he starts to crumble away from the incoming hits because he is scared.... because he is playing at 43 years old

don't give him enough weapons you saw what he can't do anymore... how did that final patriot playoff game go again?

now its brady so of course he gets a playoff game against a sub 500 team... because of course

he better retire in shame if he loses to a 7-9 "playoff" team that is there only due to how the NFL uses divisions

hope they win and go on to green bay so everybody gets there stupid Brady Rodgers playoff game and hope green bay wins by 50

[floki]

At this point I think watching Belichick vs electronics on the sidelines would be more interesting

[SBR Tony]

so if Eric Mangini was the head coach from the time Brady came to the Pats, they would be that good??

maybe you are forgetting who gave the Pats their jumpstart when they were a sh*t team, Drew Bledsoe, that's who.

and if he doesn't get hurt, who knows how good Brady would have been.

He's a big part of their success, but every piece needs to fit, including who they draft, free agent signings, etc.

That's why it's a Team sport

[Yulia74]

Belichick without Brady as his starting quarterback.
-2 winning seasons.
-6 losing seasons.
-1 playoff win

[EveryMothersSon]

well stated

[Yulia74]

well stated

thanks

[EveryMothersSon]

good point, but I still take belicheck given all things being equal.

[floki]

Head coaching wins without Tom Brady:

Matt Nagy - 28

Bill Belichick - 23

[SBR Tony]

Belichick without Brady as his starting quarterback.
-2 winning seasons.
-6 losing seasons.
-1 playoff win

almost any other name but Newton, and they most likely would have had a winning season.
because even with all of their injuries this past season, they still went 7-9 with Cam

[floki]

It’s pretty clear at this point that Belichick needed Brady alot more than Brady needed him

Guess we can put Brady vs Belichick debate to bed

[MOBIL19]

So what's the narrative after Redskins win tomorrow?

17-13

[MOBIL19]

So what's the narrative after Redskins win tomorrow?

17-13

Especially if Arians gets Brady hurt by insisting on throwing it 30 yards downfield 50% of the time irregardless of game flow.

[MOBIL19]

Belichick: Hello?
Brady: Do you miss me yet?
Belichick:

I disagree with the point you make in thread but this GIF is gold

lol

[floki]

Tom Brady officially ended the debate for who was most responsible for the Patriots dynasty — he or Belichick

It wasn't a debate to anyone who has paid attention.


Belichick has coached 8 seasons without Brady and has 6 losing seasons

[Sam Odom]

Brady today

1st Half = A+

2nd Half = C+

However... Superbowl Bound

[Yulia74]

they wouldnt let tom coach on field in new england but said he is in charge in tampa

[seaborneq]

Brady is in a class of his own. Even the coach doesn't matter. He was the man in Michigan's last big Bowl win too. Orange Bowl against a stacked Alabama team.

[floki]

Tom Brady is about to play in his TENTH Super Bowl.
Absolutely historic stuff.
Jordan and the Babe just called Brady to concede.

[floki]

easy winner, thx Tommy

Tom Brady is the only 43 year old who has a thicker head of hair than he did at 25, great genes!

[jjgold]

Thanks Floxki!
