ESPN Planning To Publish A Powerful Piece Detailing The End of The Brady-Belichick-Kraft Era
 

 
 
For years, people outside of New England have been waiting for Tom Brady to finally retire and for the Patriots dynasty to die off, but nothing has happened and they continue to win. That end may be sooner than you think.
 
ESPN is reportedly planning to drop a bombshell of a piece on how the trio of Brady, Belichick, and Robert Kraft could been over because of a rift between them all.
 
According to Boston Sports Media Watch’s Bruce Allen, the piece will focus on a power struggle that has engulfed the entire franchise and the rumor that Tom Brady asked that back-up QB Jimmy G be traded earlier this season.

There have been many rumblings between Brady and Belichick throughout the 2017 season, most notably when Bill

Belichick suddenly and shockingly banned Brady’s trainer and business partner, Alex Guerrero, from boarding the team plane or standing on the sideline.

ccording to other reports, those decisions have “created some friction in Foxborough.”

"The rift among the three surrounds a disagreement over who deserves the most credit for their dynasty, which has included five Super Bowl victories and seven appearances since 2001."

Lol what. Is this real life?

ill retract my statement if im wrong, but im pretty sure this is just E! SPN trying to combat declining revenue by taking down the Patriots, or at least capitalizing on a potential drama.

The two main arguments used for their claim is 1. the trade of Garoppolo and 2. the ban of Guerrero

1. Belichick wanted to keep Jimmy for the future, and didnt trade him this offseason because he wanted a contingency to Brady if he looked old (hint he didnt really). But he wasnt paying two quarterbacks big money, so it was either get rid of old declining Brady or let Jimmy go.

When it was apparent Brady wasnt declining, we traded him for maximizing value (nobody was offering better than what looked like a very good 2nd at the time) rather than getting a 3rd thru compensation picks

2. Alex Guerrero, Bradys health guru, was barred from being on the field by Belichick. Guerreros influence had spread on the team, to guys like Gronk, Edelman, Amendola, and probably a lot more too. Known for his uses of unorthodox medicines, he probably came to a rift with Belichick because he thought one of his clients should rest where the team doctors hired by Bill said he was good to practice and play.

If I were Bill and there was a guy, unemployed by the team, who was telling players not to practice because he thought he knew better than team doctors, then hell yeah I wouldnt want him traveling with the team and being on the field during games. Bills only goal, ever, is to win.


This is such a fabrication of a story. Brady/Belichick arent leaving at the end of the year; its just a bunch of BS made by ESPN

Also, that doctor isn't known for his unorthodox methods, he's known for being a con man, and ya golden boy is trying to dupe people by lying about important health issues to line his pockets

Calling him what he is would actually lend more credibility to your theory, since that's actually a reason for Belichick to be upset with his potential influence over his team

Robert Kraft thinks he's most responsible for the Super Bowls? That's some serious delusion.

Sounds like some kind of fictional script they made for clicks.

How can you not believe that a rift could occur between Brady & Belichick over Guerrero?
 
The rest I don't care about, but this personal doctor stuff is real whether you want to believe it or not. His star QB has a personal friend selling elixirs from the 1820s to several players on the Patriots, there is no way Belichick is okay with that, and Brady has staked his reputation on this bullshit. 
 
I think the Garappollo stuff is mostly irrelevant, and I doubt they care about who gets more credit for their success, but having the pudgy traveling salesman from Red Dead Redemption influencing your team is an actual problem

Because Brady wouldnt jeopardize the teams success against Belichicks wishes

I agree, there was a time where there was a Guerrero problem. BB resolved it by not letting him be on the field, and thats that. If you think the teams success will drastically suffer due to a guy not employed by the team being removed from the field, then idk what to say.
