OK, seriously. from a 47 year old on aging.
1) I'm sure Brady is slower than he was at twenty. If he used to do a 5 second 40 yard dash it is probably now 5.5 seconds.
2) When he was younger a game on Sunday meant he was ready to go by Wednesday. Now it is probably Thursday.
3) While he is not smarter, per se, he is more experienced. I'm not saying he sees a defense and thinks "that's just like the Steelers in '06." I'm saying he remembers the solution to what may have flustered him without always knowing why he knows the answer. Pattern recognition of the subconscious can be weird sometimes.
1 was never a part of his game. (When Vick looses a step it will be huge, Brady ...)
2, other than a Monday-Thursday turnaround, is irrelevant.
3 is the part that has an effect. (And, yes, any Manning apologists, that applies to any "pocket passer" and includes Peyton - even in the playoffs )
