On the one hand, woe to those who poke the sleeping bear, so to speak.  Brady is the one guy I wouldn't want pissed off from a football perspective.  This is exactly the kind of talk that drives him to excel.

On the other, father time is undefeated.  As great as he has been for as long as he has, the immutable laws of football physics apply to Brady, too.

I hope this is the case, because we may face him in the postseason.  It would make our job easier if he plays like the Geriatric of all time vs. the greatest of All time.

It would be no less a Lombardi if we won it there.

While I agree with this, I don't think Father Time stops the clock in a week or two.  Brady is having a solid season.  He looked bad yesterday, but that's more of an anomaly at this point.  Age does catch up, but I think this guy is good for the rest of this  year at least.  I'd love to make his next bad game against our defense.  I think they'd rough him up pretty good if given the opportunity.

Oh, a Lombardi is a Lombardi regardless of where it's one.  Being a Florida native, I just prefer a more tropical climate to attend! The good news here is that if Jax is in the Super Bowl, ticket prices will be reasonable by Super Bowl standards.
