Definitely one thing that Brady did better than anyone - he just simply avoided getting hurt. Like at all. Whether it was the “pliability” **** or just luck, for how long he played and started games and got hit, that ACL injury in the first half of his career was really his only major blow. And he pretty much kept from all the way til retirement into his mid 40s. Most of these older QBs decidedly do NOT have that same luck - they get hurt more, and those injuries linger and become bigger and bigger problems.
