There was no flag. Jimmy cut to stay in-bounds (his knee buckled) and he lowered his shoulder into the defender that hit him pretty hard. Don't think the hit should have been flagged (but who knows the rules anymore) and it definitely didn't have anything to do with the injury. That was all...

I agree with most of this post. But I have a question: isn't it also a little arrogant to believe that Jimmy G is the next Brady or even the next Rodgers? I mean Jimmy definitely looks like he can be a starting QB in the NFL, but the feel from reading some of the articles and posts is that the...

Ended up listening to all of this. It was great. But man Lombardi loves Jimmy G. He wouldn't even admit that the Pats wouldn't win the SB with Jimmy (I think he may have been able to win prior to the defense not showing up and all the injuries). He also had to thrown in there that he thinks...

Jimmy turns 26 tomorrow. Can we stop with the 10-15 year stuff. 15 years puts him older than Brady is now. And most QBs aren't that effective at 36 (10 years) either. Basically the Pats like the next three years of Brady versus the realistic prime of about 5 to 7 years of Jimmy G. It is not...

Good point. I guess the shock of a 2nd rounder is only because I thought the Pats were offered "multiple first rounders" around draft time.

Just wow. Only a 2nd rounder. Doesn't seem near enough. I know the pick will be top 3 in round 2, but Jimmy was pick 62. So BB gained about 30 spots in the draft? I guess we will see what happens.

I don't want to speak in absolutes....so I am 99.9% certain that BB can tell the difference between Jimmy and Brady in practice. The quote you are referring to is nothing more than coach speak - a way of saying that Jimmy is capable of running the offense. If the two players were truly...

Are you forgetting all the dropped passes, the fumble, the bad pass protection, and the crappy defense? The entire team was bad during the first three quarters of the SB. I mean the interception Brady through was really bad, but he was one of many Patriots that underperformed through the...

Good point, but I think there is one minor difference: TB12 was equal to if not better than Drew in practice and when he got his chance Brady won the job (as he has done every level in his career). If Jimmy was equal to or better than Brady right now, I think BB would not hesitate to move on. So...

This makes a lot of sense. The only real issue is if Jimmy ends up not being a franchise QB (there is only a minuscule chance he even approaches Brady's level) at the level everyone hopes. I mean look at the Colts and Luck. They got rid of an injured Peyton only to watch him have his greatest...

Jimmy has a faster release than Brady? I hadn't heard that before. From most of the research (i.e. PFF), I could only find data on "time to throw" not actual release. And the time to throw data supports your first sentence than Brady gets rid of it as fast as anyone. That is useful info on...

49ers with a great pick in Kittle.

I hate the Broncos getting Jake Butt. When healthy, he should be really good. Edit - I just hate the Broncos.

I was hoping somehow someway the Pats would get S. Jones. Pats can wait a year, and he will be a beast.

I have a lot of bad memories of BB drafting CBs in round 2. Just keep Butler.
