We'll see. They can fight for the division from behind us :)Nothing ends while Belichick is in charge. Now they may not be as dominant without Brady but they will always be fighting for the division title and a playoff spot.

Could argue the other way. Bill made Brady a great QB. Where would Brady been if he had not ended up in NE?Brady made Belichick a great coach.
Where would Bill be if they didn't stumble across what that 6th rounder turned out to be?
Haven't you been watching? It doesn't matter who quarterbacks that team they always seem to be just fine.The QB's are coached to play to the advantages. Not to mention how loaded they are at the top of the draft this year. The best we can hope for is to compete with them.I highly doubt that. Once Brady is gone that team is toast. This isn't 2008 where Belichick had a very talented team that went 16-0 the previous season. This is a below average team without Brady and one of the worst teams in the league if Gronk also hangs up his cleats. Belichick's once "dominant" defense was exposed in the Super Bowl after showing chinks in their armor during the season. That smoke an mirrors crap isn't going to work any more. The Patriots will be looking up from the bottom of the standings in not too long.

How tradeable is he if he won't commit to playing? Now he may be playing this up to get out of NE but who knows.Amazingly, I think a lot of where this team goes and what it does hangs on Gronk making his decision *soon*. It seems there's actual friction between him and Belichick.
If he doesn't commit to returning to the Pats in the next week, it would not surprise me in the least if they traded him.
And a Patriots team that has no Gronk, no Amendola, no Nate Solder, no David Harris, no Malcolm Butler, Jordan Matthews playing the part of Brandin Cooks and Jeremy Hill playing the part of Dion Lewis is going to be hard-pressed to be as dominant as it's been in years past.
I know they're the Pats. But if you keep digging away at the foundation, eventually the house is going to crumble.
His playoff game against the Jags was a thing of beauty.Guy is still incredible.
