Brady was spectacular

[VrabelJr]

I can't believe he's 38 bleeping years old and still tearing it up.

 

[Gronkowski123]

unbelievable.

so much for bob sutton. brady destroyed him with ease.

the greatest player in history of football.

 

[RIpats88]

Happy that Jules fought through those early drops and still goes on for 10/100.

Imagine next week now that he has a game under his belt. Whomever the pats play he will roast.

Brady looked like he was on a serious mission today and wanted to show everybody why NE is a dynasty.

"Teams don't fear NE anymore".

Safe to say they fear them again.

That has a good chance to be this year's "They aren't good anymore."

Also, if NE wins the SB, some crybaby will say: "Brady looked at Roger funny, #tainted"

Brady made a couple of ill advised throws and was rusty on his first few passes. I was a bit concerned seeing the initial opening series passes behind the receivers -- thinking 'I hope the ankle isn't bothering him'. Yet he shook it off and very quickly looked like Monster Brady taking them down for that first drive TD. That was huge! Really set the tone for the game that the Patriots of the first half of the season have returned! I told my friend after that first drive that the Patriots were back and only way KC will win this thing is last minute heroics.

The pump fake, the scramble, many excellent step ups/shifts in the pocket to allow big yards, a couple of key third and long throws, and him being pumped up to the extreme on the sideline. In multiple areas Brady showed a mark of excellence. If we can couple that with 2 more games of good OL play, health, and satisfactory D performances? Our chances of the repeat are solid.

It was awesome watching him play today. While the O line wasn't GREAT, they did give him enough time to actually move around in the pocket - something he worked on in the offseason. And something we were seeing a lot of early on in the season. Hopefully the Online can keep THAT up at least..

Edit: Of course I'd love for him to have the option to just stand back there and throw to the open guy, but if this is what we're going to get, he's going to make the most of it for sure.

 

[Brewskies]

Brady had one of, if not his best game today. Once Edelman got his head, hands and body working together Brady was unstoppable. His confidence increase greatly having Edelman back and it showed.


Lets Go Pats. ......stay healthy and play a full 60.

This exactly. Brady looked a little off on his timing with some of the receivers on a few plays but that's nit picking. All of his main targets are hurting but they stepped up and did what they had to do. Don't forget Jules JUST got back to game action after a long layoff. So yeah he had a few drops but it didn't cost them much. And even with a few bad plays and timing issues here and there they looked close to how they were the first few weeks of the season when they looked unbeatable. The Chiefs couldn't stop them on defense and they realized that EARLY. Hopefully one more week of rest and practice will make them even better. I also hope they can get the running game going a little more, even if it's just a few first downs here and there simply to extend drives and kill some more clock. I think our defense played pretty well tonight overall - some bad plays, missed tackles, missed sacks, a few blown coverages, but that happens in every game to every team. I just don't want them to be on the field as long as they were tonight. Some of those field goals may turn into touch downs if they're gassed in the thin air of Denver. (That is if the Donkeys beat the Steelers which granted looks guaranteed right now, but for some stupid reason I'm not changing my Steelers pick... Banking on Manning losing them the game with multiple INTs...)

 

[Betterthanmost]

Well, he did not come this far just to come this far!, we probably need to make posters on that saying and take it to games.

 

[thecore762]

He was on point today, did not turn over the ball and played solid. I got worried there for a moment when he dived towards the pylon and got hit in the back.

I love to see this fire from Tom, looking forward to next week...and hopefully a home game.

What scared me was the Edelman drop that probably should of been a KC pick-six which looked similar to the pick-six against the Giants.

 

[TheFlyingWedge]

He is the GOAT

KC was in a tranz on how to stop him.

I love Brady - I don't care what anyone thinks about that

Nearly **** myself on that play

From my Barcolounger saw a 38 yr. old QB possessed, who could not be denied.. he was completely in charge an in sync with Josh, early wrinkles with some of his receivers.. but overall he played as well as he ever has..

The "F... the NFL" tour continues.. meanwhile back at Madison Ave. Roger and his minions think up schemes on how to destroy the juggernaut..

Mike Reiss points out in his blog.. give or take the QBR, without regard for the metric incredibly impressive..

Brady posted an 86.4 QBR against the Chiefs. That's the highest by any player so far this postseason. To put that in perspective, a player with a QBR of 85 or higher in a season is considered to be playing at an All-Pro level.

 

[ChessToCheckers]

The pump fake was pretty awesome too.

I think I heard this morning that one of the Gillette grounds keepers just found a Chief's jockstrap on the field! What a great play that was!

Good one, that's the first thing I said after the Gronk TD, faked him outta his jock.

 

[mosslost]

He was fantastic all game. On the throw that went to Martin that sort of was near Gronk I have a question. He clearly was throwing to Martin yet it was funny to see Gronk and Martin so close on their routes. And it also appeared no one was with Martin by the time he caught it. Did his man sort of drop off to help on Gronk? I only saw it live once and then the reply like twice, just thought it was a strange but awesome and critical play.

Yeah he is. When they kept showing replays of that run/dive for the end zone I just laughed and shook my head......he's freakin' 38 years old.
GOAT!!!! No doubt.
