Default Is the #1 seed worth risking further injury to Brady?

Play Belichick in this one....

Brady obviously will never let anyone know how much he is hurting because he is a trooper but it's obvious he is having some pain.

Would you risk more injury to Brady by playing him in this game with Mankins and possibly Light out just to gather the #1 seed?...or play Hoyer who might not pull out a victory and end up at #2?

It's possible the Pats can still win without Brady,but the odds go way down.

I think the Pats could beat the Bills anyway with Hoyer.

I assume if Brady starts, it's because he's ok. He is the one who will decide if it's worth the risk or not. My guess, he'll be starting. May not finish depending on the score. Also, let's not forget, he's trying to pass Marino's yardage mark as well.

This...... We can win this week with Hoyer. We probably can't win a playoff game without Brady. If he's healthy, Brady should play. If there is any doubt, he should sit and be ready for the playoffs.

#1 seed is important. Brady will play, and the defense will probably force Brady to stay in the game.

I think we could win with Hoyer at QB, though. Team will start whoever they think gives them the best chance to win.

I guess flashbacks of Welker blowing out his knee against Houston will always creep into my head on the last week of the season.

Although in that game the team had NOTHING to play for.

Brady is not hurt. Everyone in the NFL has ache and pains this time of year. Anyone who throws for over 5,000 yards has a sore shoulder/elbow. Wednesdays are the traditional day vets get off if they need it, that's why he was not at practice...he will be back on Thursday.

I don't like the idea of the offense off for two weeks. Let the starters play 3 quarters or so.
