I think you guys are misreading Curran's article. He's criticizing Wickersham's article. The office chair part is tongue in cheek. He's saying "LOOK AT BRADY, THINKS HE'S SO MUCH BETTER THAN HIS TEAMMATES, HE DEMANDS AN OFFICE CHAIR." It's a parody of what Wickersham is saying.
Also, one of Wickersham's dumbest points was the Hogan thing. He essentially said that Brady got Hogan hurt and that was proof the TB12 method doesn't work (because I guess a young Brady doesn't make that throw? It was truly a terrible argument). Look at this quote from Curran:
Curran here is criticizing the Hogan component of Wickersham's story.
Granted I don't know what the heck the whole second part of his article is supposed to be talking about, feels like it got cut off. But if he's trying to criticize Brady or give credence to Wickersham, then it's a hard left turn from the first half of the article.
Curran has been a staunch defender of the Pats, I'm giving him the benefit of the doubt, although I'd like to know the point of the last few paragraphs of this too. If anything I think this was a rush job by him and didn't get his point across well.

So labeling him fragile and nervous? Feels like projecting. A sore Achilles and whatever other maladies he’s dealing with (there’s been a lot of hand flexing in recent weeks) aren’t a byproduct of being 40 as much as they are related to being dropped in an industrial-sized dryer every weekend. And playing behind an offensive line – which he relentlessly praises – that has undersized players at center and left guard who get bulldozed by players bent on breaking Brady.
