Three months ago (November), Bob Lobel said on various radio shows, that
back at that time the Patriots had pretty much decided to trade Drew, unless
Brady screwed up royally in what remained of the season.

Let's hope (I don't think so) that Brady isn't a one-season wonder. That
sometimes happens - take a look at Rob Johnson for instance.
Of course we'll find out next autumn...I guess.
