Default Thank you Tom Brady

I'm a bit stunned at the flack Brady is taking.

It wasn't his greatest overall performance as a whole, he was playing excellent until that hit, then after not as accurate. Will we ever know the true extent of that injury? Maybe in an autobiography.

Tom Brady is held to a standard by some fans that is impossible to maintain, constant perfection is expected. This man has given this franchise amazing success and has a winning record second to none. He has played through injury etc been a team player and when he shows signs that he is human he is set upon.

This strange thing as well is this thing about losing Super Bowls, to get there is an amazing achievement. You want to win of course but even ones Brady hasn't won have been decided on moments that could've gone either way. As Brady himself says you'd rather get there and lose than not be there at all.

I would say that fans will appreciate this period once Brady and Belichick have gone. But those fans who rip Brady now will be long gone once the Patriots have missed the playoffs for a couple of seasons.

As I come to the end of my rant I leave with this. It has been a pleasure to watch Brady quarterback this team and I look forward to watching the rest of his career. He has given me more than enough great moments as a Patriots fan than I could wish for, as Bill says I wouldn't want another Quarterback.

Thank you Tom Brady

you are right, too many so called fans expect perfection. Far too many fans never truly appreciate a great athlete until they are gone.

I don't star posts often except in retaliation for the moron or morons that would one star a thread like this...

It's true that when he and Bill are gone they will be gone too or complaining louder than ever about how it's beneath them to root for a friggin' 5-11 team and demanding somebody better fix it.

Well said. I get pissed that so many people have such animosity toward a guy who does things right on and off.

Players like Brady come around once in a lifetime.

Like Larry Bird, Bobby Orr and Carl Yaz. I dare say that Brady will go down as the greatest NE Patriot ever and there have been some good ones before him.

As Great as he is on the field, he's even better off the field. Tom and Giselle do a lot for charity, most of which we'll probably never know about. For all the BS and pressure that comes his way he NEVER cracks.

FWIW... I know a Brazilian Girl who worked in Brady's Condo for a month doing housekeeping. She told me a few interesting things about him and Giselle. But she said they were both always so polite and respectful to everyone they came in contact with.

P.S. For all you who think Giselle distracts Brady, my friend told me that he watches hours and hours of film at home every week and she never once distracted him. LOL.

Brady's been getting undeserved flack his entire career, whether it's due to Manning fanboys or bitter fans/media that hopped on the Spygate bandwagon. I'd give my left arm to see him get 2 more rings and go down as the unquestioned GOAT, nobody deserves it more than him after all the bull****
