I don't think Brady to Lions is going to happen...

I know what will happen this offseason.

Rodgers to the Jets for 2 1sts... i mean they hired Hackett as their new OC and the Jets owner has said he would pay any price.

 

No Lions fan want Brady here. Goff is the man for this team. Plus I really want Rodgers to go to the Jets and fail to the point of retirement. Nothing against the Jets, but can’t stand Rodgers

It'd be even funnier if he retired, came out of retirement, signed with the Jets, retired again, signed with the Vikings, threw a game losing interception in the NFC championship, retired for good after the following season, and then got caught misattributing charity funds in a horrible scandal over a decade later.

It would be really interesting if you could go back in time about three months, say this exact thing to any Lions fan, and step back and watch their heads explode. 

As a Lions fan I was ready to be done with them for another year like always. But then the way they melded together made me feel like they were a different team. So yes my head would explode 😂

What options does Brady even have at this point? Las Vegas and... Indy? Washington? SF and Miami shoring up their QB situations really limits his choices


Brady has two realistic options left, really. 
 

1). Go back to Tampa. They still have a lot of talent, and if they can shore up the offensive line a bit they may have another shot. It’s a much longer shot than it has been, but Licht has done a pretty good job assembling this team, and I think can do it again if all things fall right 

 

Or, the better option,

 

2). Just retire already. Hit the ol Dusty trail and make all that money broadcasting.

One year of analysis no more profound than "they need to play their kind of game and work hard every play" before Fox falsifies a dick picture scandal to get out from under that contract.

The biggest shame of Brady retiring would be Greg Olsen getting demoted.  He's so much better than I expected him to be.  The PBP guy isn't special (good, just not special) but the pairing makes for a pretty good broadcast.

Olsen is probably gathering funds as we speak to give Brady a Robot body so that Brady can play forever so that he wouldn't have to get demoted.

I enjoyed Romo during his first season, but if I'm going to watch a game, the teams involved is the one and only factor.  I don't think FOX gains any advantage by having Brady, even if he's really good.

 

"If we don't sign Brady, CBS or Amazon will" isn't a valid view, since again - I'm sure I'm in the majority where I'm not watching a game for the commentators.  The networks have a guaranteed audience based 99% on the matchups.  Adding all the announcers they want isn't going to get me to watch a game between two loser-ass teams.

Tom Brady has been a national figure for 20+ years and the only thing I ever remember him saying is "I only have that hat to support my friend."

Kevin Burkhardt is like the over simplified "game manager" moniker that we give to quarterbacks. He knows his role and lets Olsen do his thing, which has helped him be good. In a way I can't explain, he has "studio host energy" and he's great at that during the World Series. I don't think even he imagined he'd ever being calling the Super Bowl on a national television level, much less this soon.

Volunteering myself as the one goober who does watch based on who is announcing. Can't say that I really hate any of the current teams at any network, but if it's not my team and I have the choice of to see Kevin Harlan's or Ian Eagle's games I'm tuning in there. I even started tuning into MNF for the first time in over five years because Buck & Aikman were over there.

When I found out I couldn't watch Reds games due to the wonderful bankrupt network they play on that no one in town see, I got MLB TV for free and chose to watch Orioles & White Sox games because I find Kevin Brown and Jason Benetti to be some of the best around and an absolute joy to listen to. (I will admit that baseball announcers are much more a part of the event than football announcers are given the amount of down time.)

I think the reason Kevin Burkhardt feels off is because from day one, Fox's presentation of the NFL has always been big names and larger-than-life production. The #1 team this whole time has either been Pat Summerall or an infamously annoying guy doing an impression of Pat Summerall -- say what you will about Joe Buck, we all do (or we did until Deadspin realized he was a cloistered private-school kid like themselves and declared him Actually Good), but he was a big name befitting top games. Settling for a guy who is technically sound but not a personality unto himself is kind of an ESPN move, or was until they signed Joe Buck. Fox never used to settle for anything. The reason they got the NFC in the first place is because they paid out the ass and outbid themselves.

 

I can't do Jason Benetti. He's a message board poster doing actual games. We won, and I don't think I like it.

Apparently McCarthy is going to call plays too.

 

I don’t mind parting ways with Kellen because although the Cowboys have had the leagues #1 offense 2 out of the 4 seasons he’s been the offensive coordinator, the Cowboys offense has had two massive flameouts in back to back postseasons. Change was needed. 
 

However, McCarthy calling plays scares the s*** out of me. This doesn’t feel like an improvement at all. If anything it’s going to make the offense worse.
