I doubt he leaves. I don’t know that Belichek is ready to hand over the reins to Jarrett Stidham or a complete unknown in the draft, and at the end of the day, Tom Brady IS New England. They just need more weapons, which they can easily pick up in FA or the draft.

But if he does leave, another interesting option would be Tampa. He’d immediately have two of the best receivers in the league to throw to, a great option at TE in OJ Howard (if he stays), a good coach in Arians, and a division in flux. Carolina is a mess, Atlanta is inconsistent and may still be no better than .500 next year, and if Brees retires, New Orleans takes a big step back by default. No matter what, Brady has to go somewhere that is ready to win now. Tampa  probably isn’t the best overall option but they’ve probably got the best weapons he can work with in the passing game. Tampa can’t possibly think Jameis is a long term solution.

Is Carr's contract expiring? Or do they plan to have both on the roster? It would be a short sighted play to cut Carr with Brady likely retiring in the next couple years.

I laughed when I read”...his picture would be on billboards all over Nevada.”  While that might be true, there would be damn few people to see the billboards.

What about Buffalo? My wife is from Buffalo and hates Tom Brady and, as a Tom Brady fan, would love to see nothing more than her cringe while winning games. But jokes aside, I think they could have won that playoff game and a few other games if Josh Allen could actually throw the ball. I think he could be a pretty good fit and instantly tilt a few games from Ws to Ls himself alone.

Speaking of Brady, is there any chance that he'd like to get in coaching?  I imagine that he'd be an amazing offensive coach.  Although he may not want the rigors of recruiting and babysitting when he could be traveling the world with his super model wife.  LOL.
