Great Moment: Brady's Spike -Look @ Teammates Faces

[strngplyr]

It's really annoying when I hear the "exports"; who supposedly have been watching NFL for years, say how Brady learned the spike from Gronkowski when he's always done it with every single running touch down he's scored.

I think they are saying it in Jest. Brady has stated it on multiple occasions that he is emulating Rathman, the 49er's (favorite team as a kid) fullback.

Gronk has just brought the spike to a new level (and sort of a return) in the NFL, and considering he's spiked 25 (saved 1) balls over the past 2 years, he is certainly the most well known player to do it currently.

In fairness to Gronk, he's taken quite a few things to a new level in 2011.

Ooh, I like that gif! Show's he was spiking it right into the middle of the O. See that, Denver? THAT is QB accuracy!

I believe it went through the uprights. Warming up the ball for the extra point. Dude thinks of everything.
