“They ask for my advice, I tell them, and then they don’t take it.”
Joe Montana since Tom Brady told him there was a real problem in New England … and Joe Cool thinks it’s one of the biggest reasons why TB12 is no longer a Patriot.
“I think that was one of his beers,” Montana said USA Today Sports on Wednesday … “I think he wants a little input.”

Joe said in another interview Wednesday with SportsMap Radio that Brady broke it all for him when the two were at the February NFL 100 ceremonies at the Super Bowl.
“I don’t think he was happy with the way things were going there and his ability to have input,” Montana said.

Of course, Brady has never publicly explained what made him leaving New England for Tampa … but it’s clear, Montana believes as Bill Belichick had the QB given more say in the offense, he might still be a Patriot.
However, Joe says he thinks so Bruce Arians and Co. will be more than willing to give Brady a big role in game roping and game planning in Florida.
“I think they’ll probably let him have that,” Montana said, “especially with the success he had.”
By the way, appears that Brady loves it in a Bucs jersey so far … he posted some photos of himself wearing a Tampa uniform on Thursday and wrote, “Dear mom & dad, summer camp is off to a great start.”
