That NE team was due for a crash the last 2 years tom was there, especially the last one, you could tell Tom was carrying more than his usual amount. Lack of quality first round picks (by winning so much over the years) and large salaries to older players (due to winning over the years) caught up to the Patriots.

It's crazy how bad the Patriots fell apart without Brady. They went from 6 time works champs to "ehhh" in one season.
