To think someone who sees no receivers open and knows he's going to get hit has another reaction, is just stupid.

Amazing how brave he is when he hits receivers in a fraction of a second because the plays work.

It's like saying hitting someone in the head with a hammer is a good strategy, because the hammer is harder than their soft head.

Of course he isn't built to slough off or run from rushers all day, some qbs are.
Yeah, the Jets getting to Brady was a bye-product of the Jets making him hold onto the ball too long because no one was open, not the Jets were on top of him all game. In fact, the Jets couldn't get a good rush on him in that game and most of his sacks were coverage sacks. And people seem to forget that although Brady didn't have a good game he did complete 64.4% of his passes for 299 yards, 2 TDs, and 1 INT. That is a good game for most QBs.

BTW, the supposive "blueprint" on how to stop Brady of pressuring him with only four man rush hasn't worked this year other than when he was struggling because of his tennis elbow. The Pats have done a pretty good job countering that this year.

A safety valve to throw to might ease a bit of the pressure.....Pats RB's are decent at catching...

I wish I had a dollar for everytime Manning tossed a ball up on the run and one of his recievers ran under it for a catch ! Luckiest SOB in the NFL.

See how many Brady puns you can come up with -

He's into window treatments - Tom Shade-y
He's into collecting knives - Tom Blade-y
He refused to sign a sick kid's football helmet - Tom Hate-y
He likes to assist members of Congress - Tom Aide-y

I guess I could write for the NY Daily News...

I hope stuff like that keeps firing him up and he torches the Giants.

Find me a QB that does NOT get rattled under constant pressure. What a bunch of manure.

Driving to work this morning and getting frustrated at the talking heads on sports radio in Boston. Constantly pounding the fact that the Patriots got "lucky" in the Championship game - which is partially true....yet, conveniently forgetting that the Giants were just as "lucky."

This statement defines vague conjecture. I've seen every play he's ever played, more than half of them in person, and see no difference at all. His courage and guile in the pocket are beyond being called into question.

Yeah, he was real scared when he jumped over the pile to get the ball in the endzone on Sunday, with Ray Lewis ready to take his head off.

Brady has 2 issues post-knee:

1.) Much more hesitant to run

2.) More likely to start feeling the rush if he's hit early

It is what it is.
