Re: Brady not at practice today.. even though he spoke to the press earlier.
Just finished watching the NFL replay of the game. Brady did hurt his shoulder tho.
The Play at the 1:48 4Q mark where Brady escapes the pocket and gets hit at the 25 is where it happen.
He gets up stretching out his shoulder. But you can really see Brady is in some pain on the next play, a hand off to Ridley.
But he does throw a strike to Welker after that so that's good.

Brady dinged left shoulder late in Saturday's game against Miami. Went for x-ray to check for separation. Was later told he was "all set"
That says to me that he had the x-ray on Saturday.
That's how I read it to. That said, there's room for improvement in how Curran frames vague quotes. "All set" seems to be this year's equivalent of "we're cooking" — someone said something but it doesn't really mean anything.

WWBD: What Would Ben Do? It's amazing to me how tough Brady is, the stuff he shakes off and you don't hear about til much later (you know, little things like broken ribs).

I stand corrected kinda.......It doesnt seem as though it was a poster who twisted Currans tweets but it seems other media twisted it.
based on BradfordsPatsFans post of the tweet (I cant see tweets at work not that I am much of a twit) here is what Curran said.

Seeing as todays absence was listed as non-injury related I think it would be fineable if he was actually missing practice for Xrays.
In the end I am guessing you like me are still very concerned about an injury but I dont think we can use this tweet as smoke for anything other than Xrays whenever they were taken are based on Currans account negative or "all set".

I really don't think BOB is calling them this often. That's almost all Brady.
if I gave me reply a moments thought I would have come to the right conclusion. Of course it's always an option for Brady and he won't run it if the yards aren't there. Still, he has to realize he's not a kid anymore.
And if you ever heard Bruschi explain what might happen at the bottom of a pile, you might want him to just stay out of there anyhow.

Broken ribs was tough. But Brady also had a broken finger on his throwing hand that year too. Brady is tough as nails and never makes excuses.

According to Zolak, the injury probably happened on a scramble, not on a sneak.

Yup. Got that from above.
I was just commenting about putting himself in a situation. Though Brady is a football player first and foremost, so I'm sure dialing it back would never occur to him.

Come on now do you really want him dialing it back? No one wants to see anyone get hurt but part of what makes Brady who he is is that he cant dial it back.
But lets assume he could do you really want him sitting there on a key 3rd and short or 4th and short saying to himself the DTs are split so wide I could pick this up easy but you know what I might get hurt let me stick with the original play that now based on the DT split is less likely to work? Should he shorten his internal clock for releasing the ball to 3 seconds from 4 (or whatever it might be) just to save an extra seconds worth of QB hits and sacks? Maybe we should just play Hoyer this way Brady is healthy?
