This was all about Tom Brady running the Bucs offense and getting Bruce out of the way. Bruce was not a "yes man" to Brady and Brady hated that.
Brady couldn't tell the truth if his life depended on it. Which is saying something considering how much Brady values himself.
There is also no question that Bruce Arians will be missed
I've never seen another rabbit hole that Florio goes down as pointless as the Arians/Brady thing. Spend your energy on something substantive and worthwhile!
This is a really thin story… speculation on top of speculation. guess we now know that its the summer doldrums..
There is no there there
What a perfect fucking answer
If you look at Arians’ career stats they look good. He’s won around 62-percent of his games. However, he had a real lull between 2016 and 2018 and he averaged just over seven wins per over that three-season stretch, obviously lower than 50 percent. Tom Brady showed up and voila! The Bucs won the vast majority of their games. I’d like to see what was going on before 2016, what players Arians had, and did he have great players. I believe he was fired by the Cardinals around 2017 or 18 as he had a couple really bad seasons. But obviously where I’m going with this: “Has Arians’ success been more about the players and assistant coaches he had, or is it about him?” It seems in Tampa at least Arians won with Tom Brady and (I think) Leftwich and, well, I could be the head coach in that scenario. I’d just get out of the way and let everyone else win and make me look good.
brady looks old and ill
It's pretty clear that Brady was disturbed because Arians ran a loose ship.
Great analysis on Brady’s psyche, and it’s the reason I think he’s more of a sociopath than anyone will ever know. Anyone who buys that garbage about Brady taking low salaries in N.E. is a fool. Brady is a known cheater and so is the Patriots organization.
The OFFICIAL NFL and PATRIOTS BOOKS will show a lower salary for Brady, but don’t let that fool you. You should also be very suspicious as to how he’s even still playing at all. I don’t believe he’s natural.
Brady is a phony. I won’t denigrate his entire career, because he was and is obviously a great one, but not as great as he seems.
Deep down Florio is a catty 14 year old girl
Beyond general conversation, most people don't speak their mind, they have the common sense to not create a social mess by going on some truth telling power trip. Arians is the power trip truth teller and when he is paid and his team has tuned over he will leak out the truth.
Another interesting thing about this is the fact that Arians selected Bowles to be the head coach instead of Leftwich. Especially when all you heard in the off season was how qualified Leftwich was & deserved to be a head coach. One would have to wonder how true that really is in light of the fact his own head coach bypassed him.
S….T….F……UP FLORIO!!!
Geez, they can't let this go, they have keep pushing this bs narrative don't they?
This is a non story, you talking heads are making a mountain out of mole hill. JESUS
Who cares? This network has a terrible pattern of hiring beta males who could easily have their gender confused.
This "former teammates" that you're talking about was a Patriot teammate and lives in Boston. I'm not sure how that guy would have an insight into Bradys relationship with Arians, especially since this former teammate admits he doesn't talk to Brady. I guess Florio must believe in ESP.
It's really too bad that Florio hates Bruce Arians so much. It's obvious that no matter what Arians and Brady say that Florio needs his own narrative. Arians already explained the timeline and why he waited(so he could pick the coach he wanted).
This is still a story? Arians is old, he knows he's old, he retired once before. He has always looked to built up his team and saw an opportunity to give Bowles a good team to start as a HC. End of story.
Florio is such a joke.
So you think Arians would still be involved with the team now after all of that??
sigh and there goes Florio conflating separate events because it feeds the narrative he WANTS to believe and wants US to believe. Florio keeps disrespecting Arians. There is no way Arians would have NOT spoken up, and definitely no way he'd take on a different job in the same organization, if they just punked him that way. Arians has more than enough money he wouldn't eat his pride that way.
Seriously Florio. You just aren't making any sense, because by your narrative he DIDN'T walk away on his terms.
