As you all know(well most of you sports fanatics) that Tom Brady replaced Drew Bledsoe when he was injured. Now that Brady has a 4 game suspension for deflate gate, if Jimmy Garoppolo plays well will he replace Brady, like Brady replaced Bledsoe!??!?!??!!

The killer question: "Will he play well?"

We all know what happened when Brady was out for 8 weeks in 2011, and Matt Cassel came in as his replacement, taking the Pats into the playoffs with an 11-5 record (I believe they lost in the wildcard round) but he didn't replace Brady. Then again, this was about 4 years ago and our friend Tom is getting somewhat old. Eventually he will be replaced, but it all depends on the timing and if the backup is ready to step up and lead a winning team.

They missed out on the playoffs with that record. TOM IS NEVER OLD IN OUR HEARTS. PEOPLE SAID HE WAS OLD AND YOU KNOW WHAT? HE WON A SUPERBOWL.

Tom Brady is one of the best quarterbacks of all time. Hands down. This is coming from a Baltimore Ravens fan. Let us take Tom Brady out of the equation the past 15 years. Would the Patriots have won rings in 2001, 2003, 2004 and in 2014? We will never know, probably not but those teams still had legendary defenses and coaching staffs. The question I ask today is does 4 games with this superbowl winning team really make a difference in the long run? Will Tom not being there for 4 games impact the whole year? Will they really go 0-4? Please note they are versing Pittsburgh, Buffalo, Jacksonville and then a bye week followed by Dallas. Like come on already. I truly think the Patriots should have no problem finishing 2-2 or even 3-1 during these 4 games.

One thing to add, in 2014 (this past year) we had a solid defense. However our offense was so iffy and it was Brady that made it work, the way he had every year.

I'm just getting the vibe that the four games should not be that much of a challenge for the Patriots. Do you agree? Jacksonville... Well we all know their story. Big Ben in Pittsburgh could have a meltdown year from injuries and age. The Steelers aren't looking too hot. The Bills could go either way. I want to see them do good but we don't know until the season plays itself out. Finally you have Dallas. It depends if Tony Romo is on. He is either an A+ quarterback or like a D-. Haha. Remember, the Cowboys lost Murray. So where is their run game at this year? Nowhere. I don't know. I'd like to see Brady go out in style with another dynasty. I think these 4 games are not a big deal.
