It is what it is.
It is what it is in your mind only. Which tends to conjure fanciful assertions based on unsubstantiated opinion and vague conjecture.

I'll admit the year after the knee injury he was very rattled, by anybody. The year after that he improved. This year he seems to be getting back to his normal self.

I've seen a bunch of games this season where he actually moved around in the pocket to avoid the pass rush or the sack and find time to throw, something he wasn't doing the last two seasons. I've also seen him run from the pocket a few times this year. He did it about two or three times vs Philly. Then people started complaining about the way he was sliding. I guess it's hard for a guy like him to get any love, regardless of what he does.

'fraidy or no fraidy I'd take him over any QB in the league. I might give him Vick's athleticism, but I can also live without that too.

I get it!
Rhymes with Brady!

My favorite Elisha, much harder to sack.
Here plays D, in a cover two:

Nonsense. As the numerous articles, comments and conversations show, it's clearly not in my mind only. Instead of being so knee jerk about the situation, try realizing that noting such things does not equal some method of viciously disparaging Brady. Given that I'm one of those who talk of Brady as the G.O.A.T. most often, you should know better.

Deus, you're generally a good poster but this is a case of your being provocative for its own sake. And it worked, you got a rise out of me. What you assert about Brady's knee injury affecting his performance or decision making in ANY respect has been a total non-issue since early in the 2009 season.

Or like when he ws pulverized...literally lifted off his feet ...in the Denver game (by Dumervil, I think)...he basically threw in the towel after that...right?

I wasn't being provocative. As a matter of fact, my first post was pretty clearly one that was limiting, and mostly minimizing, the issue. And your claim that this is a non-issue is clearly not true.

Two things:

1.) On a game-long or season-long basis, I would much rather have Tom force a throw, then running the ball to try to get 7-8 yards.

2.) Love your pic.

Yeah no kidding.
It's just ridiculous. "Fraidy cat QB's" Don't even try to make a play like that.
