Brady Dealing With Achilles Injury

[CISGS]

Hope this is minor

Definitely a concern for any aging high-impact athlete.
Hopefully this is where the TB12 magic comes in.

 

[FourierSeries]

It's not serious.

Brady won’t miss the game. Everyone chill. You saw him in the after game celebration, he was his usual happy self, congratulating the other players and smiling. If it was serious, I’m sure he wouldn’t be acting like he did.

Just a little outpatient procedure... he should be good for a while now:

 

[Kontradiction]

Aka it was a little sore and they gave the 40 year old the day off.

 

[Joey007]

I still have to wonder if it was from that Mack hit late in the game. Most likely.

Brady is tough, so yeah he won't miss the game. but that doesn't mean him playing every minute (or at all if hurt) is smart.

IMO he likely got hurt a little in that illegal hit in 4th. Immediately after the hit, Hoyer gets told to put on his helmet, but TB refuses to come out. BB probably has to personally manage situation a little to make sure the "franchise's" ego/toughness doesn't get in way of team-franchise long term success.

Team has til now only played ONE division game. So winning these next couple are crucial to assuring postseason, and setting conditions to win HFA. TB playing is critical to those wins. Could they win without him? sure, and it is even more likely based on the collapse in the AFCE. But do you (or really BB) want to roll those dice? They need TB to win and keep jelling O, and if he rests til Thur-fri, I don't think anyone should care -but the speculation would define ramp up.

Pour some water on it. Cures Achilles injuries AND prevents sunburns.

That hit didn't look all that bad. Can't imagine he would've kept playing if he was injured there in any way.

This is the hit:



One play later:



Last play of the drive, last play by Brady:

I dunna know.

 

[Soliel]

It was the hit on his legs

 

[brdmaverick]

He'll rub some avocado ice cream on it and be good to go.

 

[Haterproof]

This almost guarantees the Fins will get smoked! Well that was happening anyway

 

[PatriotReign]

Damn Raiders and Mack.

 

[Joey007]

Eh you know what? Let's rest him this week, Miami has a Cutler at QB. Brian can pull it off

 

[QuantumMechanic]

Gronk with illness. Wonder if he caught what Andrews had (which clearly was not altitude sickness). Better not be 2006 AFCCG all over again.
