Brady was horrible - New England Patriots Forums

Brady missed receivers all day. He threw behind guys. The interception was way underthrown. On the play Watson was wide open, he floated the ball and the defensive player was able to make a play on it.

I don't think I've ever seen him so bad.

He sure didn't look good. Second week in a row, too, that doesn't usually happen. I hope it's just that he is having some timing issues with some new receivers, and not something more serious, like an injury. Or moping over Deion.

Agreed.

I wouldn't say it's a reason to panic quite yet, but Brady was noticably off all day. He wasn't much better last week. I hope it's just an issue of being comfortable...the only WR from last year that's back this year is Troy Brown.

I hope he's not injured...that would be awful.

It certainly isnt his recievers' fault. He needs to wake up and realize with the running game he's got, that he must perform a lot better.

So you conveniently forget about the solid production on third down, including on the last drive to (all but) seal the game, and the pair of very nice drives through the air in the first half for scores? Yeah, Brady had 3 or 4 throws behind guys, and the pick WAS bad, but this was hardly his worst game.

Are you saying that Brady hasnt looked off at all the past two weeks? I think thats what they are saying. Not that it was his worst game, but that he hasnt looked his crisp, fired up self.

His worst game was that game vs WASH in 2003 in my opinion--but let's not sugarcoat things here--today was not good. as a matter of fact--he looked more "distracted" to me this week than he did last week. I don't know if it's physical, or mental, but either way--he's gotta get better, and FAST.

All true. But even you have to admit , something from his game is missing

It's not a physical thing.

Fire is missing. Spark or whatever you wanna call it.

Sadly, it' s almost like watching a guy going through the motions.

Okay, forget "horrible" -- he just didn't look right. A lot of balls looked off-target or weak in an un-Bradylike way. The Jackson touchdown was practically the only throw over 10 yards that seemed to have the zip and accuracy we've all come to expect. I was amazed that the announcers never talked about it once.

Only Knows I don't want to be critical of Brady........However no one can ignore That Brady hasn't looked crisp at all........ Maybe it is his timing and needing time to gel with the new offensive personnel. However I am not going to rule out that he just might be trying to display his displeasure for not having Branch.........I have supported the organization since day 1 as it pertains to there decision with Branch, but I have to wonder if Brady didn't really express his desire to want Branch back. Maybe Brady felt that the team could have done something to help keep his guy there...I don't know, but hopefully it gets better with time. In this situation I wonder if BB knew how Brady fealt about Branch, maybe they could have done something to please there Franchise QB and a guy that they can ill afford to develop a sour taste in his mouth. One of those BB and Pioli may have won the battle with Branch, but maybe they could lose the War. I have never seen Brady so disinterested, lacking passion or fire...
