BY IRA KAUFMAN

Tom Brady and Bruce Arians must have patched things up in a hurry.

If you believe some of the reports dropping in the past six weeks, Brady and Arians weren’t on the same book, let alone the same page. There were suggestions of a deep divide between Brady and the franchise he returned to relevance.

Given Sunday’s stunning announcement, Arians has every right to ask: how do you like me now? [read more]

Ali Marpet Not Expected To Return

March 14th, 2022

Pro Bowl LG Ali Marpet.

Apparently, the Tom Brady magic and influence are not perfect.

Instead, Marpet plans to launch a career in the mental health field.

No, Joe isn’t going to use a cheap one-liner here using mental patient Antonio Brown as a punching bag.
