With the Patriots at home and Tom Brady playing in the wild-card round of the postseason, it would be easy for Pats Nation to do some Monday morning quarterbacking on New England’s decision to let their longtime QB depart for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
Ultimately, it’s a waste of time. Brady wanted to leave, and the Patriots weren’t going to show up to the QB’s mansion in Chestnut Hill, Mass., holding a boombox playing Jay Z’s “Public Service Announcement.”
Would the Patriots have been better if they had somehow reached an agreement with Brady?
