      I lost all respect the man forever during the 2015 season. Late in the season the Broncos beat the patriots. In the post game interview reporters asked Brady what went wrong. He replied, "well you can't blame the refs." Then proceeded to blame the refs. A few games later in the playoffs, the Broncos beat Brady again handing him this worst defeat and his worst statistical game since his rookie year. When I asked by the press what went wrong, he replied, "Well, they didn't do anything special." The man has all the class of a spoiled fourth grader. And yes, he's kind to those who can help him win.

      Hightower was a blend of the two, and rose up in the biggest moments. Take note that the two years they didn't win the super bowl from 2014-2018 that Hightower was out in the playoffs.

    Probably the most fun player I have watched in the 50 years I have been watching the NFL. Seeing Gronk catch a 15 yard pass and have 3 backs jump on his back and then carry them another 20 yards before they could get him down, IF they did, was awesome! And he had great hands. Rarely dropped a ball. Plus when he was younger, he had a great first step. One step and he was close to top speed. And it was deceiving. He didn't look fast until you realize he could outrun some defensive backs.

    Brady and Jordan, people always talk about their insanely competitive nature, and desire to win. While this is definitely true, Jordan was a freak athlete and Brady had an incredibly strong arm.
    If you watch his throw at the end of Super Bowl 42 on 3rd down to Randy Moss, although it fell incomplete, Brady launched it from his own 15 yard line standing on the right hash all the way to the Giants 17 between the sideline and the left hash. “That’s like 65 yds, not that crazy from an NFL QB.” Nuh, nuh, nuh, no, he threw it from the right hash across the field beyond the left hash, which adds another 6 yards (hash to hash) + 12 (halfway between hash and sideline) That throw traveled close to 90 yards.
    Brady didn’t have the Mahomes, Rodgers mobility to throw a bomb while rolling outside the pocket, but his ability to maneuver, maximize time and space within the pocket was unreal. Brady had an unbelievably strong arm to go along with his intensely competitive nature.

    Gronk is a great interview. People know honesty when they see it. Rookies come into the league and they are already programmed (incorrectly) on how to talk in front of the media. That is why you see the cut n paste responses. NFL agents should create a montage of Gronk interviews to show the rookies. THAT is how you handle this... first get used to the camera in front of you (this takes time). Once you are over that, you need to be yourself and be funny.
