Where he may choose the other Florida team to avoid playing the Patriots, choosing Miami is all about getting revenge. In Miami, Brady would get a chance to beat his former coach twice a year. Plus, nice weather for a change!

The Dolphins may not seem like the most attractive place for an aging quarterback to have success. Brady could see potential in former New England assistant Brian Flores, who is now running things down in South Beach. Flores took a team written off and destined for 0-16 and had them competing like it meant something at the end of the season, with a 5-11 record (including knocking off New England in week 17). Miami also has a ton of draft capital heading into the next couple of seasons, which could mean the Dolphins end up being competitive sooner rather than later.
