I'll be interested to see if the results differ from when I asked this same question a couple of weeks ago.

I picked TFB mainly since opinion won't make sure, but maybe picking him in polls like we're praying might help,

You said, Game 1, so I chose Cassel. Brady will be starting by early October. That's my guess.

I watched when Manning when started this season when he wan't ready. It wasn't pretty.

If patriots have a reasonable option over a not-ready Brady, then someone else should start. If Cassel were still on the roster and Brady were 70%, I would want to rest Brady a couple of more weeks. I expect Belichick to have a QB on the roster who will start if Brady isn't ready. It is certainly possible that Brady will not play in any pre-season games, except perhaps in the last one.

Of course, I expect Brady to be 100% for Game One. I can say that, but I don't know how reasonabke such an expectation is.

IMO no way Cassel's even on the roster by game 1, whether brady's healthy or not. If they need a QB to stand in for a couple games, I wouldn't be shocked if it ended up being O'Connell. I agree that it wasn't pretty when Manning started before he was healthy, but Manning also had those surgeries weeks before the season and, IIRC, missed pretty much all of training camp.

Question is...Will he be able to go back to the huddle once the second quarter of the first game in 2009 arrives

Have Tom Brady start, trade Matt Cassel, sign Damon Huard to backup Brady, let Kevin O'Connell learn from both.
