It seems like the never connect. It's an automatic incomplete. Maybe someone ought to tell McDaniels he doesn't have Randy Moss of 07 out there anymore.

Brady is a horrible long ball thrower. He misses receivers when they are open always overthrows.
(Lloyds fault in first game)
Bet he has thrown as many picks as catches in balls thrown over 40 yards down the sideline.
This was from the Baltimore game (also in a blog entry I did )
You can see the entire season passing chart here:
2012 Patriots Stats Database
So far through three games:
3/8 Deep Left 111yds (1 of those was Welker's 59yd catch Sunday Night)
2/6 Deep Middle 59yds, 1 TD
0/2 Deep Right
I don't think the pass to Welker would qualify as a deep completion. It was about 20 yards in the air and then RAC. IIRC, Brady has completed 1 pass of more than 30 yards in the air in the last 20 games or so.

Missed the Welker catch so I didn't have that one in my memory. To be honest, I'm surprised they have 5. Are those the 20 yard passes with a run after catch? What's the criteria? Helpful chart though, I'll check those stats out again.
The way penalties are being called, it's more amazing that we haven't drawn a pass interference penalty on one of our long bombs.
Aside from Moss who caught every jump ball in 07....Brady is,never has been and never will be that long bomb QB,Brady works the field methodically and when he tries a bomb its usually too far or too short.
Brady is not Manning,that is not his forte....
Even if Lloyd snares a long ball...he'll hit the turf immediately. Never seen a guy voluntarily find the ground faster than him. Between him and "no yards after contact" Woodhead, the Pats are fortunate Welker makes up as many YAC as he does.
