Tom Brady is struggling to win with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, and the New England Patriots are struggling to win with Cam Newton.
I want to go ahead and propose a really bad idea that is so crazy it just might happen. It probably won’t. But we’re talking about sports. Let’s have some fun. The idea? The Patriots could trade for Brady during the 2021 offseason.
I understand that Brady has been only marginally better than Cam Newton when looking a how advanced statistics compare the two quarterbacks. I understand that Brady was not particularly good in his final season with New England. And I understand there might have been some love lost between Bill Belichick and Brady during their breakup. But maybe — even in dysfunction — they’re better when they’re together.
Let’s explore how a trade might transpire.
