Is he walking out into tunnel or out to the  field


It could be meaning that he’s staying or leaving

Looks like he’s walking in from the way his left foot (on our right) is angled inward.

Not sure how much to read into it.

He’s definitely walking in...all you have to look at is his shoulders and the silhouette shape is from the front.

I think he’s gone, he wants the money he obviously deserves and BB won’t give it to him and I also think Brady doesn’t believe he can compete with Patriots roster either, I think he goes to the Raiders but IMO if he leaves he should go to Cowboys.

Walking into the tunnel.

The way his knee is inverted...wouldn't be inverted like that if he was walking into the stadium..

"IF" this is it for him he has absolutely NOTHING to be ashamed of....perhaps the greatest QB of all time and his greatness has transcended sports.....

I'd rather he do it THIS WAY than go back out there and God forbid gets hurt.

I saw this last night - it sure looks like he is walking in to me...which I guess is a good thing. The leg on the right of the picture just doesn't make sense the way it is bent if he were walking out.

Anyway, I sure hope he comes back - we looked great last season with our bounty of receivers. I would imagine we would do everything we can to put Tom in the best position to succeed. Also, I read that Joe Montana talked with Tom and he said that he would return to NE if put in the same position (he already went from SF to KC very later in his illustrious career). There are also no QBs pushing Tom out the door here (Steve Young, Andrew Luck). It would be a needless break-up.

Edit: Shoot, I voted wrong. The choices were worded differently than I expected. I thought I voted 'walking in to the stadium', but it said 'tunnel' instead and it was too late to change.

Also, this pic + Betts possibly being dealt by the Red Sox today or very soon.

Boy it's going to be fun in Boston over the next few weeks  :P

Should we be focused if Brady is going in or out of the tunnel, or the tunnel itself? I was listening to the Sports Hub yesterday, and someone at the station noticed the Sports Hub booth from that angle, which would suggest Brady is in the visitor’s dugout.

On a side note, I have a quick rant. Why are so many people belittling Garoppolo as not being one of the reasons the 49ers are in the Super Bowl? He is no side car, as so many have stated. There’s this narrative that the 49ers mainly run the football, and the Patriots mainly pass because their running game stinks. If that’s the case, then why does Brady only have 79 more passing yards than Garoppolo? As far as the NFC Championship game is concerned, why pass the ball when your already up 3 scores in the first half and your gaining somewhere over 8 yards per carry? The game was basically in hand in the second quarter, and there is no reason at that point to put your quarterback in harms way by having him pass, when the Super Bowl is in sight.

Looks like his time is done in New England. Now he needs to find a team like Brett Favre did who is right on the fringe of Super Bowl with good receivers, a strong RB and a line that can protect him during these final few fragile years. I dont see him just signing with anyone due to money. They have to be right at point of one big piece at the helm of the offense and steps away from glory.

He is definitely walking into the tunnel. That left leg angle and way foot is pointed down tells me that.

What an amazing run by him though. Incredible. I wish my Vikings had no Cousins and a line, cause he would be perfect for them but unfortunately he would be injured in the first few games with the way that line protects QB's. He would enjoy those receivers and RB though.

Don't sign with the Bears or Cowboys please!

Vikes would have been perfect - Its where old QBs go for one last run (with good success) - Cunningham, Moon, Favre. 
Marino considered going there as well.

Someone on Instagram/Twitter posted a picture of the same photo setting as Kobe's.

It looks like a tribute to Kobe Bryant.

Never would have guessed that, but it’s definitely eerily similar. Brady is a Cali guy and an athlete of Kobe’s generation too, and they seemed to be friends to some extent. Makes sense
