It's easy, and only takes a few moments.................the return of Brady and hopefully the F U touchdown next year. I know BB probably doesn`t think like this, but I hope he keeps a mental list of all the players and coaches running off at the mouth or taking cheap shots and just blows the doors off of teams next year.

I don't think Brady will be fully ready to throw 40+ TDs in his 1st season back from such a major surgery. We'll be lucky if he's truly game ready by Week 1 next year.
You don't think putting 30+ points up in every game would make a little difference ? It's a lot easier being a DB with a 14-0 lead and having more margin for error.And after the score, can Brady then go play defensive back for us, as that's our glaring weakness this year, not QB?

You'd take a "solid DB or better pass rusher" over Brady ???So yeah, right now, I'd rather have a solid DB. Or a better pass rusher.
To each his own I guess. But the idea that you would "trade" a healthy Brady for any single defensive player in the league is mysterious to me.Look, I think Brady is one of the greatest, if not greatest, QB ever. He was clearly the MVP of last season, and he has kept us in games we had no right being in, but I'm not sure right here or right now that he would be enough of a difference in getting us to the playoffs or deep into the playoffs.
As we've often told Colts fans, one guy, even a Peyton Manning, doesn't win a Super Bowl. A team does. And right now, our team, on one side of the ball, looks awful. So yeah, right now I'd rather have someone fixing that side of the team rather than making our already good offense better.
Cassel and Thomas vs. Brady and Woods ? I'll take Brady and Woods, thank you very much. I'd also take Brady and O'Neal over Cassel and any CB in the league.Whoa there... come back into the barn.
I never said I'd trade Brady for anyone. I don't think you keep Cassel and trade Brady (though I understand the argument). Our offense is built around Brady, as he is reliably good from year to year. Who knows if Cassel is solid or a fluke (kind of like Anderson for the Browns last year)?
I just said that right here and now, where we are at in this season, I'd feel a lot better if I knew Adalius was coming back or even if Rodney were coming back.
It's all about Manning. Take him off the team or take Sanders off the team ? The Colt defense hasn't made a big difference, they're still getting eliminated in the AFC playoffs, the one year they didn't was when Manning outscored the Patriots when we were in the 30s even with Sanders and the defense.Alright, but I think that's the recipe the Colts followed for all those years before Bob Sanders and others came in and actually made the defense respectable.
I do, and I can see what you're saying. But for all of the big lead, easy games last year, in the end it came down to our defense in a really tight game, and our defense came up wanting.
And comparing last year's team to the ones that won Super Bowls, I believe that the defense has been the difference that pushed us over. I honestly think we would be in control of the AFC East and bucking for a bye right now if our defense was playing anywhere close to '03-'04 standards, even without Brady.

As poor as this defense has been, Brady's play at QB would've been the difference in at least two games, and the Pats would be looking at 9-3 with a division lead and perhaps a first round bye, instead of 7-5 on the outside of the playoffs looking in. Those claiming that it wouldn't make a difference if we had Brady or Cassel are lying to themselves.

BradyManny2344 said:As bad as the defense has looked of late, our AVERAGE point total from last year still puts us in all those games - with the reality being that we probably get ahead and our D can play better by knowing its just playing the pass.
