Mike Sando of The Athletic spoke with six NFL executives regarding their takes on New England Patriots quarterback Tom Brady's future following the Pats' 20-13 wild-card loss to the Tennessee Titans on Saturday.
One executive posited that Brady and head coach Bill Belichick, who have been together since 2000 and won six Super Bowls, want to find success without each other.
"I subscribe to the theory that Brady and Belichick each wants to win one (championship) without the other," the unnamed executive told Sando.
