To be fair to Cam, New England probably has the worst collection of skill position players in the league. This offense looked like poo under Brady last year, and Brady might put up 40 TDs for Tampa this year. The Patriots managed to survive for years with substandard offensive weapons because Brady could lean on Edelman, Gronk, the receiving RBs, who together made the dink and dunk offensive scheme unstoppable. With those three areas now gone or in decline there's just nothing to work with. It's a credit to the scheme all those years that the only period they had truly elite receivers were the Moss-Welker years, otherwise it's been Edelman and replacement-level guys.

But yeah that doesn't explain his inability to be able to even complete basic passes in the route tree. His arm looks shot and so does his confidence. I don't even think he'd be able to get high paying backup money at this point and you do wonder if he'll want to spend 5-7 years as the clipboard guy making $2 million a year (first world problems as it's finest right there lol).
