Florio on Brady: I Think The 'Baseline is 4' Games

Interviews-wqam

As Tom Brady and the New England Patriots continue to have their Super Bowl trophy dragged through the mud over Deflategate, Pro Football Talk's Mike Florio highlights a major issue that hasn't gotten enough pub -- Brady refusing to turn over his cell phone.

"I think that's a huge problem that hasn't gotten nearly enough attention," Florio said on the Joe Rose Show on 560 WQAM. "The idea that he basically told the NFL investigators, 'no I'm not giving you what you want.' That is a major problem for him on top of whatever else may or may not have happened. It's automatically conduct detrimental to the league to refuse to cooperate so I expect a stern punishment.

"It's not going to end well for Tom Brady I think."

There's been speculation the duration of Brady's punishment could be up to a maximum of the entire season, but what does Florio think the minimum number of games will be?

"I think the baseline is four and the question becomes does it go higher than that?"
