The New England Patriots need a quarterback, that's not news; the real news is, who is this successor? Who will become the new leader for the New England Patriots?
First, it's an honor. Back then, when Belichick selected Brady at the 199th pick of the sixth round, it was considered foolish by the league, but Belichick spent twenty years creating a GOAT, and Belichick himself is still pursuing the record of most wins in the league.
The emaciated camel is still bigger than a horse; the New England Patriots are still formidable, and no matter who succeeds, they will be under the spotlight next season.
Secondly, it's pressure. To take over Brady's position?
In Brady's hands, the team still secured eleven wins last season and advanced to the playoffs; now, how the successor performs under Belichick's guidance will be scrutinized in every detail, compared to Brady in every aspect, a situation that ordinary people cannot endure.
Comparable to a hot potato.
