Flotsam and Jetsam

Miscellaneous thoughts and observations.

I truly believe that if Tom Brady plays next year in will be in a Patriots uniform. However, I have to mention that those who are insistent on making the case of Tom playing elsewhere keep missing a key ingredient. The next chapter of Brady's life will revolve largely around his TB12 Method and his gyms. He already has one in Boston and will be opening gyms soon in NYC and LA... New York Times actual headline; "Trump Signs China Deal, Halting Trade War That Hurt Global Growth" - hurt global growth for who? China?... Luke Kuechly absolutely should be a first ballot Hall of Famer. I would also say that in this age of CTE awareness nobody should be surprised with his decision to retire... Sometimes the truth is in plain sight (even if it was decades in the making)... Why I mention the new TB12 gyms is the Chargers are moving to LA and they desperately need a reason for fans to buys tickets and playing for an LA team can help Brady promote his new gym. Just saying... One of the great things about living in Mass is hearing people say the word "caucus." As in the Iowa "cock us." I have the sense of humor of a 12-year old boy...

Ryan Tannehill

Looks like the Dolphins are going to have both a new GM and head coach. I think they need a new QB too.

Ryan Tannehill was the 8th overall pick of the 2012 NFL draft. The very next pick was potential Hall of Fame linebacker Luke Kuechly.

Looking back at the draft is 20/20 but it should be noted that both Russell Wilson (75th overall) and Nick Foles (88th) went in the third round. Ah what could have been.

It is clear that Tannehill isn't a franchise QB and hopefully (for Dolphins fans) the new GM and head coach realize this and move on in a new direction.
