My opinion and beliefs at the beginning of the season weren't popular. However OP you can't compare Brady to Lynch. They are different positions with different levels of abuse.
Running backs have a history of declining sharply at the age of 29. The other cliffs I believe is about 1800 carries. It was evident last year despite his numbers his body was starting to break down. At one stage he couldn't even go into the locker room at the half and finished the game anyways. He was always nursing an injury that got compounded over time.
He will never again be the player you want him to be because he is not that player anymore. He will be 30, and next year he will only have more wear and tear than he did at the start of this year. He's done. He was done at the end of last season. I said at the beginning of the year that Father Time would show its face this year and he wouldn't get 1000 yards because he passed two cliffs that spell death for the RB position in combination with injuries starting to show.
The team can cut him, and likely get 2-3 good players for his salary and make an overall improvement to the team as opposed to a worn out rb, passed his prime.
