I am ignoring Shouright's attempt to derail this thread and make it about Tannehill's limitations by focusing on the topic. One of my best friends is a Pats fan and he has been complaining about how inconsistent the Pats offense as a whole has been this year. I have watched two Pats games myself this Year: the Thursday Night game in Week 2 against the Jets and the Saints game. In the Jets game, his receivers were dropping passes like crazy. The top story the next day was how Brady was yelling at his Young wideouts on National Television. In the Saints game Tom Brady certainly looked like the Better QB between himself and Brees to me. I am sorry, but if there is a decline it is a minute one IMO. His struggles for the most part can be traced to the loss of weapons and turnover on that offense from last season to this season.

Mando always has an article that backfires him. I can see Brady throwing 4 touchdowns now this Sunday and we're going to look back at this article after the game.

Brady's so called decline is still better than most guys' peak.
Actually my posts were as much about Brady (his "weapons" versus his decline in ability) as they were about Tannehill, which is the topic, but of course you're free to do whatever you'd like. :)

It's 50% on Brady and 50% on his weapons, from what I've seen.
The interception he threw at the end of the Saints game was awful, and underthrowing an open Edelman for a touchdown twice was on him, too.
He's missing some throws. Just flat missing them.
(I still think he's going to kill Miami on Sunday)

Yeah, if Brady throws 4 TD's on Sunday, it will DEFINITELY be because of this article.
Mostly the article....the fans will need to take some of the blame as well

And there we have it, folks.
A bit like the press guy who asked Manning about his wobbly throws this season. "Yeah, and I'm throwing a lot of wobbly touchdowns too"

Yeah, that's how I see it as well. He is the best QB in the NFL not Manning or Brees no question about it for me.
Every Pats game this season has had plenty of drops. Their WRs and TEs are mostly rookies or very inexperienced players.
That clown is probably deliberately writing this to further inspire Brady and Billichek, as if they needed any further motivation
after losing to the jests.

Just blitz the **** out of him. Put Dion Jordan on Gronk, and let Reshad Jones rove in the back end.

Mando's a moron
Brady's lost 18 tds, 283 receptions, and 3204 yards with Belichicks wide receive exodus
add to the fact he lost Hernandez and Gronkowski's production.
In my opinion it's amazing you take away those weapons and say he's "in decline"
What QB on this earth wouldn't be in "so called decline" when you handcuff him to this extent?

I don't look at his numbers, I look at what I've actually seen. Everyone is talking about that amazing comeback vs the Saints, but the fact is that he basically had three shots at it... and on one of those chances he threw about the worst interception you'll ever see. And in a couple of plays before he threw the touchdown, he flat out missed a touchdown when he had a guy open. So yeah, There's something to saying Tom Brady has had a bit of a decline.
How do we know that's not an isolated event that happened at times even during his prime?

How do I know you're not a bot programmed to consistently produce the most asinine posts I've ever read in my life?
Some things you just take on faith.
