Yes, a "report". It obviously wasn't sincere.

Brady's entire company is marketed around the #TB12 hashtag.

"Hey Sanu, I know my entire company's operation revolves around the TB12 name, but how about I give you my number, which I've had for 20 years, because you have been here for 20 minutes? Sound good?"
I think you are right however would have been great to see Sanu accept the offer.

FTR, my original post was sarcasm. I put the LOL at the end to try to make it apparent, but I guess it wasn't. My apologies to you both. Brady was never giving up 12.

That was weird with Kelce.... the ball crossed the corner of the EZ in his possession, but he landed out of bounds after his jump for joy. I'm not sure I can recall someone cutting the corner but making no contact with the ground inbounds. Not saying it's illegal, it just looked off.

Look I don't need or expect sports owners/organizations to be paragons of virtue, but maybe let's avoid calling the organization that signed Tyreek Hill as "classy."

NE: 8-0, +180 point differential, 8 opponents' current win % .250
NO: 7-1, +39 point differential, 8 opponents' current win % .547
SF: 7-0, +130 point differential, 7 opponents' current win % .314
GB: 6-1, +45 point differential, 7 opponents' current win % .490

It's not at all a crazy idea that perhaps one of these other teams is better than the Patriots. I mean, I think the best argument is for NE, but the insanely cupcake schedule so far is a major consideration.

I figured Moore would play pretty well; Reid’s system is very QB friendly and he’s a veteran with some good skill position players to work with.

Pats are better than all of them in DVOA, which is adjusted for opponents. In fact only the 49ers are close.

That’s fine and like I said, I think the best argument is for the Pats. But I don’t think it’s crazy to think that another team might be better.

I literally have no idea what to think of Andy Reid. He’s obviously a very gifted play caller, and his teams win a lot of regular season games. But I wouldn’t want him anywhere near the Pats.

No apology necessary. Appreciate the gesture.

GB defense looks very middle of the road tonight as does KC’s. Will be interesting to see what Rodgers can do with one minute left in the half.

That was some pretty bad clock management by the packers

He's a fantastic coach. Except in close games and the clock is important. Then, he might be the worst coach that ever coached.

I've always thought Reid was a fantastic coach. Yeah, his clock management has some epic negative highlight reels in his career, but he probably has been a little unlucky to boot not to win a SB.

Can you imagine what BB would do if 20 Patriots ran into the end zone to celebrate a fumble recovery?
