Inexplicably trading away Logan Mankins for basically a backup TE to Tampa when you already have deep OL woes should be a clear signal that all is not well there.
It's as if they are forcing Brady's hand here - "Thanks for the memories, Tom, but we need to get younger at your position before we dedicate cap space for protection". He's got no receivers, a half-assed backfield, and no OL.

What could go wrong?

They dressed 3 wide receivers for the game.

"It's 3rd and 18, let's try a 4 receiver set and spread the defense. We run Gronk out 15 yards in the middle and have Vereen block before heading downfield"

"Uh, we can't"

Tom Brady might be in decline. But it's hard to judge given the other problems on offense.

yeah, that made no sense at all to get rid of him. and didn't tom help them out on his contract so they had money for others?
yeah, no player should do that...cause when the time comes, you're gone no matter how helpful you were thinking you were in the past.
