I've never seen more nervous Nellie's in my life, do some of you guys even enjoy the game?

Be careful man, you'll have most of the board after you now, lol...

All I know is that Brady better remove the letters H and G from his vocabulary because if they are seen together in any text message or email regardless of the context you know what will happen.

I nominate it for an Oscar!

If you see Brady in a walking boot in his next presser then start to worry. Otherwise, please with the drama. Don't think he would have even been able to stand on a severe- moderate high ankle sprain never mind playing in the the second half.

Brady will almost certainly be wearing a walking boot at some point, if he's not already. Why wouldn't they have him wear one?

Don't be a straw man pulling that weak sauce. Of course there will be concern and even nervousness when the most important player on our team by far has a high ankle sprain going into the playoffs.

For the first time all year, we'll give this guy the benefit of the doubt and believe him.

HAS have varying degrees of severity.

The fact that he stayed in the game tells me its a low grade one.

I thought the same thing until I saw how much he favored it when he was stepping down from the presser. It seems very obvious to me that it's really painful. We'll see what it is in two weeks.

Not trying to downplay it. He was in major pain.

No question he was hurt and for anybody who has played competitive athletics that night and the morning after is sheer hell after getting hurt.

I do think that if continuing to play would have made it worse they would have sat him down.

Thats when the world really ends....

I don't fully believe him or don't believe him. He just said what I wanted to say. People overrate high ankle sprains. Many of them are really bad, but many of them are really minor. It is all about the grade.

 

[rexxar]

Could've been worse.. I flipped my **** when he was bent backwards

And you believe this out of the abundance of caution they have demonstrated in attempting to protect Brady from injury?

Brady should have just laid on the field and gotten carted off.........would have had the haters going like this

and then come division playoff game when he throws for 450 on the chiefs

and then another 400 in Denver

and once again 350 on the seahawks

I'm not the biggest fan of internet doctors but he kept the optimism up about Gronk in the Denver game when that looked at it's worst. I think his tweet even referenced a bone bruise as a possibility. It was too long ago to find the tweets now but he definitely kept hope up.

It isnt just Brady it everything, O line sucks, too many injuries etc.., I understand the angst but this is what we have, this is the team at this point in the season, injuries happen to every team, every team has some issues, you can't roll into the playoffs perfect. Ill be at Gillette Sat night cheering and my opinion is the team "as is" has just as good a chance to make it to the big game as any team playing. In fact with Brady and BB at the helm Ill take my chances any day of the week.

In the first 1/2 they absolutely did. Then they made the decision to win with a sub-standard passing game and o-line.

OK so answer honestly....if they put in Jimmy G what would you have thought?

This board is really gonna be unbearable the next two weeks.
