Again, I'd stress, if Brady topped out at his 2001 short pass only routine, that would have likely been the only Super Bowl season.
That works for awhile but once defenses know for certain a QB can't burn them deep, that severely limits what the entire offense can do - including the short game, as defenses will stack guys on the line.
The only similarity to Brady circa 2001 is if Pennington was ever going to win a Super Bowl it would have had to have happend in 2002 before defenses knew what a limited QB they had on their hands.
I agree with you and understand what your saying. I was only making a comparison strictly based on the 2001 passing game i.e. Brady short passes not going deep and when he did he wasn't very accurate.
My point is he is not a horrible QB and he will start somewhere next season. To many truly bad QB's out there.
