Tom Brady: On Film, As Good As He’s Ever Been
Not yet in sight of any cliff.
From a pure “throwing the ball” standpoint, the first three series of the Patriots-Saints game last Sunday might have been the best three-series sequence of Tom Brady’s career. Brady was 11 of 15 for 177 yards and three touchdowns on those drives. He made several incredible throws with the pocket closing down, including multiple downfield throws that he couldn’t step into. His accuracy was pinpoint. What always stands out with Brady—or, maybe, doesn’t stand out, since it’s so subtle—is how little he moves in the pocket. He won’t relocate unless absolutely necessary, and when he does he covers the minimum amount of ground needed. No QB is more poised in the pocket.
