Steve might have done a better job in the S.B. than Brady did, sadly enough.

I don't think you can build your offseason around him, but for a very low (near minimum salary) considering the potential upside, I think bringing him in would be a fine move.

That said, that shouldn't stop them from getting a young linebacker or two in the draft because obviously you can't count on him to play even one snap.

I'm surprised so many people are down on Brady for the SB performance.

How many QBs in this year were knocked down on 20 pass attempts? He had pressure ALL DAY, on virtually every pass attempt. There was no running game to speak of. All 3 of the Pro Bowl OL were awful. And he led what should have been the GW TD drive.

Young might have done better than Brady only because of his mobility, but I don't know if that's where you were going with that.

1.) It was about the mobility, but....

2.) Brady's throws were off even when he had time.

I understand some of his throws were off, but I feel one of the major reasons for that was because he wasn't able to get into a rhythm, getting knocked down so much. And yet, he still had us in position to win the game when it mattered most...

The only throw I saw from Brady that LOOKED off-target that was not caused by him being hit while in the throwing motion was the sideline pass to Welker, and Brady was clearly upset that Welker cut if off too short.
What passes are you talking about? every one I saw off target happened when Brady was hit while throwing. No QB in NFL history is capable of throwing on target when he is hit while throwing.

The two that come to mind for me (and I say this without watching it a second time, I can't do that) are :

1) The pass he intentionally threw away and yelled at Welker afterwards. Wrong route (I assume) or not, Welker was open for a catch. The Super Bowl is no time to prove a point - if a guy is open, throw it to him.

2) On the 4th and 13, I believe Welker was open on the other side of the field but Brady didn't see him. Not "off target" but still not a good play.

I still love Tommy, though, don't misunderstand.
