Bill Belichick, when pressed, just reiterated Tom Brady will be his Week 5 starting QB. He added a "Jesus Christ..." with an eye roll.

New England Patriots quarterback Tom Brady is suspended for the first games of the regular season. Unproven Jimmy Garoppolo will be under center for the first quarter of the year.
Some people in sports media have been suggesting that Brady is in danger of losing his starting job. Or, at the very least, crowd-sourcing the odds such a thing could happen.
What percentage chance do you give @JimmyG_10 to win the @Patriots starting job in his 4-week audition? pic.twitter.com/v6USBYY2cU

Belichick’s frustrated answer this morning suggests he disagrees with Max Kellerman’s “Brady is going to be a bum in short order” take. And that’s fine. Debate is to be embraced.
Good to see Belichick in mid-season form before the calendar flips to August.
