Default Brady injury biggest NFL impact EVER

Tom Brady's injury left NFL without clear best team - Don Banks - SI.com

doesn't make me feel any better

Articles like these make me think TB could become thought of as
the best QB ever to play the game. At least one of the top 3.

Although Brady's injury had a big impact. I have yet to have anyone explain why it has had bigger impact than Marino 1993 injury.

I think one of the most interesting stories about Brady's injury was it's $1.5 Billion affect on the Fantasy Football Market.

Billion!!!!!!!! Holy crap.


"Greg Bebezas of The Fantasy Football Times thinks Brady's impact is likely closer to $1.5 billion. "His injury will reverberate much deeper than it initially appears," Bebezas told me. He points out that Brady's absence also affects the value of Randy Moss."

I agree that I like that part of it, but if we want to be intellectually honest we should be mentioning that there are problems this year that go way beyond Brady's absence. They're more of a reason for our dropoff than Brady being gone.

Incorrect.

The o-line wasnlt good last year and the secondary was marginally better last year. Tom Brady MAKES the Patriots now.

?

So you think the only difference between our undefeated season last year and our 3-2 with 2 blowouts start this year is Tom Brady? I love the guy, but I can't believe anyone really believes that.

I wonder....what impact it has on the ratings?? in fact..injuries in general...pushing ratings down. I ask because Goodell is all of a sudden interested in them...a few weeks down the road...maybe ratings driven??

Yikes. Not being into Fantasy Football I had NO idea that much money was involved. Whenever there's that kind of dinero floating around bad things can happen. Anyway-our Tommy's causing the 'FF Market' to practically crash
