I been trying to figure this out for years. They say he is arogant. I dont get it. I just dont get it.
How can people have not heard of Dareus? He had a great rookie year without Kyle Williams lining up next to him. When Williams gets back, he'll be a beast in the 4-3.
And face it - if Brady were any other QB in the league (and especially one named Sanchez or Manning), most here would agree w/ the sentiments. While all QB's & players work the officials, Brady is pretty near the top of the list, at least by the eye test.
I live here in western NY, and I've never heard of the guy?
Hey Dareus? You mad, Bro?
While Brady may "work the refs", the reality is that he gets some of the fewest calls in the league. Especially compared to Faux Qbs like Vick.

Simple, a 6th round pick QB was never supposed to be this good. Some people still think it's all a system mirage. Also, he's made the rest of the AFCE pretty much irrelevant for a decade. I am sure some players are bitter about that.
So i guess this means Dareus is whining about somebody else whining
Uh-huh.
1. The word here in Buffalo is that Dareus had a disappointing rookie year.
2. You're a victim of media driven perceptions. For instance, ESPN repeatedly showed London Fletcher getting a (bogus) flag for hitting Brady late after a run/slide. Fletcher complained to the media afterward. But ESPN never showed the two hits on Rex Grossman that got bogus flags that game, and no one from the Patriots ever complains. Brady is highlighted, but the reality is much much different than the perception.
The thread is not about the flags he gets; it's about working the officials. He does, even on incidental contact.
And Bills fans love Dareus. He was disappointing the first few games, but grew into his role (and was somewhat hampered by being the only good player on their line).
