Brady cut revealed!!!

[RobertWeathers]

Im still curious to understand how he got the cut. It was reported his thumb bent back severely. Seeing how it's 3-4 week recovery for an open dislocation and that's ruled out, how did he get the cut if it wasn't the helmet?

Amazing how close the Vegas was considering the uncertainty to the lead up. The line was 7.5 at game time and 46.5 O/U. They won by 4 and the O/U was 43. Had Gronk not been knocked out it could easily have been 7 and 46.

I read somewhere it was the laces that cut him. A handoff can be fairly high impact so makes sense. Also the photo doesn't show all the area around the thumb so it probably does encompass part of the webbing as well. Because the cut we can see is not big enough for 12 stitches. But that's some pretty serious swelling on his thumb.
Incredible performance. The TB legend grows. After the last 2 SBs, this game and all the sheet he's been thru the last couple years, that legend has surpassed ridiculous proportions.
If you wrote a script like this,you'd be laughed out of Hollywood.

Clearly Brady is a speedster like The Flash. Photos can’t even capture his hand still.

Is Giselle signaling “1 more game for you Tommy” ? She’s got to relax, he was our guy first

What we saw of the hand, during the game and after, with the black bandage on it, made it clear that it was not a knuckle and not the webbing. This is a short, apparently deep, cut, up on the joint where the thumb joins the hand. There's no way to know if there was any bending back of the thumb when it happened.

And wow, is this story a great case study in how speculation and out-loud wondering turns into rumors, which turns into versions of the truth, which turn into facts, which turn into arguments, which turn into a lot of people vehemently defending something which turned out to be wrong, and a lot of wasted of time and energy for everyone.

Yeah, almost looks like something jabbed into it. That is not a crossing laceration but looks like a penetrating one.

someone has to tell Burkhead not to run with scissors...didn't we learn that in kindergarten?

Too funny. Yeah, what in a helmet could do that?

I bet they worried that whatever did that hit bone. Must have hurt like a mother.

Proves TB is one tough mutha !!

Does Bart Scott still think it’s a built in excuse?

I live in NJ so I get privilege to listen to his new show. He is blaming Jaguars and not giving any credit. His cohorts are following his lead. Meanwhile jaguars had best game plan I’ve seen vs pats in years and they played excellent. They made a few mistakes granted but they were turnover free and had 22 first downs.

He’s in the process of making a 6th finger.

Shhh... we don't want Inigo to hear about this.

Heck, Brady himself has now been quoted saying that Wed and Thurs and even into Fri he was worried he wouldn't be able to play today. So it's hardly the much-ado-about-nothing that some people here try to cast it as.

I think Brady is just overly dramatic.

BB said it already, it’s not open heart surgery. Combine it with the fact that there was no QB3 on the practice field on Thursday and I am certain that the coaching staff knew by Thursday morning that things should work out.

It just makes no sense at all that BB would risk going into a game without a backup QB that at least knew some of the play calls.
