New England Patriots: Why team should give Tom Brady lifetime contract

Tom Brady is the face of the New England Patriots and they should make sure that he stays a New England Patriot for the rest of his NFL career.

When you think of the New England Patriots there is one guy that you think of, Tom Brady. Brady is the face of the organization. Once he leaves the team and the NFL, the Patriots will never be the same.

Brady’s contract expires at the end of the season. One would think that the Patriots would want to get an extension done as soon as possible.

The Patriots are up against the cap and could use a few more additions. If Brady signs another team friendly deal this would really help New England out.

I don’t care what it costs, Tom Brady needs to stay in a New England Patriots uniform. It would be an absolute tragedy. Just imagine Patrice Bergeron playing for a different team. I’m shaking just thinking about it.

Brady has expressed that he wants to play until he is 45 and he looks like he will do so. Even though he declined slightly, Brady was still a top quarterback in the NFL. He threw for over 4,300 yards and had 29 touchdowns and 11 interceptions.

At this point I would even consider giving Brady a lifetime deal. What harm would it do?

Brady could be the face of the franchise for life. Once he decides to retire he could either transition to coaching or even work in the team’s front office. If I am a free agent and Tom Brady is in the room there is no team I am going to besides New England.

The New England Patriots need to do all they can to ensure that Tom Brady stays on the team. If he leaves it will be the biggest mistake that the team has ever made.
