What was the advantage, TFB? Assuming you're still referring to his "taking less so it could help the roster!" schtick. "It's like the cap isn't even there.....Brady gave BB an advantage with his contracts that nobody else could" I have explained it to you... I can't understand it for you. Go back and read my post you quoted again. A few times if needed. No, your post was contradictory, as I stated in my OP. You continue to slurp Brady for what he did with his contract/taking less and how it benefitted the Pats "like nobody else could." You then say the cap doesn't exist. Can't have it both ways

You continue to slurp Brady for what he did with his contract/taking less and how it benefitted the Pats "like nobody else could." You then say the cap doesn't exist. Can't have it both ways I will post it again... The cap is there in writing, but it's so fluid that it's as if it's not even there. Come on.. get with the program. Brady gave BB advantages that no other team had. Every team can restructure contracts, move money around, add voidable years... manipulate the cap so many ways... but nobody gave their GM the advantage Brady did. Nobody! So to make it simple, there are many, many ways to manipulate the cap... we have seen it now for several years and everybody has the same way to manipulate it... except for 1. The Patriots had an additional way to manipulate the cap that no other team had.... Tom Brady. There should be no reason why the patriots couldn't keep Brady unless the GM didn't manage the roster effectively. Seems to be the case. People say you kick the can down the road and eventually you have to pay the piper. Not the case if you manage it properly. With ever increasing caps, we are seeing teams front load contracts to some players, back load others, add voided years to some.. they won't come due all at the same exact time if it's managed properly. Let me repeat.... The cap is there in writing, but it's so fluid that it's as if it's not even there.

I do not believe the team could not keep Brady. I believe the team did not want to keep Brady at the end. in my opinion, the mistake made with Brady was his last contract, and I feel that was a 3 way compromise that ended up hurting the team.

You led the crowd that said he took less to help BB and the Pats. Now you’re backtracking and just saying everybody manipulates the cap. So no magical powers Brady brought BB. Got it At least you can admit those 2 schticks can’t exist at the same time
