To me he should stay put. Players with those kind of resumes should retire on the same teams of their glory, if possible. Montana should have stayed a 49r, Jordan should of stayed a Bull, etc. With that said the Niners do make sense, they seem to be just as ready as the Patriots are to getting that next championship. As well as the team being a dream destination for him since he was a young kid. He idolized Montana.

The speculation and rumors are abundant. It will be interesting to see what happens. JMO but at this point I wouldn't fault him for doing whatever the hell he wants? He has brought this franchise from mediocre at best to the most successful in NFL history. I keep telling my kids to watch because you will never see another quarterback accomplish what he has. He is someone you will tell your kids about. He has brought New England so much pride and played in some of the most exciting Super bowls in history and done it for so long. I will never forget the wins and losses and Im just glad I got to see him play and can live to talk about it.
I try to think what would he do? I think at his age he probably has a relatively short time left to play and I dont think money is the issue. I think he wants put himself in the best position to win another super bowl in next 1-3 yrs and not sure where that may be but we will see what transpires. In any case Ill still watch to the end.
I don't think there is much of a chance for him to thrive, outside of Patriotville. That system has been built around him, and Belichick, for a very long time. Even though he is still better than half the QB's in the league he would not likely benefit from another Offensive Line. And he IS getting long in the tooth. There is no time to build a team around him.
The Pats Offensive line ranked 10th. While the Cowboy's ranked 4th, I don't see Brady doing as well here. The Dallas Offensive Line stats were helped by Dak's ability to run out of trouble.
The only way the Niners would ever even consider him is if they got him dirt cheap. They've already got a pretty good QB. He needs to just retire with class like he has played.
He should go to the Cleveland Browns! If he could turn that team around he'd be nominated for Sainthood. (:•》Being a "former" Browns fan, I've watched Belichick's career. (Bernie Kosar was a local boy. I quit watching pro football and actually put a curse on the Browns because they fired him.) IMO, Belichick would have never been successful without Tom Brady. Tom Brady is not only the greatest quarterback but a stable genius. No matter where or what he does I wish him luck.
