    Now here is some real turmoil...

    It's the Patriots not the Steelers and the made up crap some like to spew. Good article outlining power struggle within the Pats

    Some were using this trade (at the time occurred) to discredit Belichick. As it turns out, he wasn't for the trade at all.

      That's as far as I could get reading about their horrible situation.

      3 giant egos on 1 team. It's nothing short of a miracle that it's lasted this long.

          Agreed. This is clearly a case of where Brady feels he is bigger than the team.

            This reads like some Hollywood Scientology nonsense. Pretty much when you have success doing things your way you tend to think your way is the only/best way.

            I think anyone named Tom is ripe for a cult.

              Hopefully this leads to failure on the field. Soon.

                When an athlete approaches 40 years old, they sometimes do some strange things...we just saw that earlier this season...
                Actually, my post was NOT about you...but, if the shoe fits, feel free to lace that &!+€# up and wear it.

                  Yeah, that trade didn't sound like Belichick to me either. Belichick is never unprepared and having a 40 year old QB who could go over the cliff at any time and not having a good back up is being unprepared.

                  Brady and his trainer buddy are crazy and from what I've seen of Brady the last 5 games, he looks like he's on the decline already.

                    Sort of a deflating story for Tommy and the Pasterisks.

                      Oh yeah.........now if we can just put the icing on their cake in a couple of weeks by beating their @ss then we can really watch some fireworks. I think belichick wins the power struggle.

                        I bet that this is about 80% BS and writers looking for clicks.

                        I'll believe that they are unraveling when they stop playing like the best team in the conference / league.

                        But, it would be good for us if they split up / retired. It would hopefully convince Ben and Bell to stick with the B&G for a while for a chance to rack up a few more rings.

                          Agreed! I will believe it when I see it! I mean, I understand that they're human too, but I have never seen a sports franchise be so dominant in their sport for so long as the Patriots. I understand there have been many others, unfortunately, I just have had the misfortune of witnessing this team so up close and personal. I sure hope for all of the NFL's sake the hemorrhaging is starting now.

                          I can't think of anything more depressing than to have to see the patriots and TB hoist another super bowl trophy. I swear I will never see it...

                            If any of this is true and Kraft listen to Brady over Bill, Bill will be gone at the end of the season. I just don’t think he would stay in that situation.

                              nah.. it's not like Bill or Brady would tank the season. I think it's moreso their close relationship and we may see them move on in the next year or 2. Brady and his trainer are crazy as hell. I could definitely see it being an issue moving forward OFF the field.

                              My issue tho is the sideline yelling being used as proof is garbage. Players and coaches argue all the time. I'm sure Brady was pissed because he missed Cook. Last thing he wants to hear is how open he was. Of course he knew that, he just effed up the throw.
