Holy Moly, it's Brisset and Edelman

Bring it loser boy. This is football. You don't participate in practice at any level multiple days (with this injury) in a row and then sit.

Everyone plays on pain. It's football. Go play power puff football. Embarrass myself? Right. Go talk to Hightower and what pain he went through in the '13 season.

You can go sit around and drink lattes with Jimmy. I'll take the real dudes.

3-1 is pretty sweet but man how great would a win be now. It would just shatter RR's mind lol.

3-1 is not sweet we better not crap this game away, both us and Denver are 3-0 and they have a baby cake schedule we need to win as many games as possible

If it's an arm strength problem, and by all reports that's exactly what it is- there is no upside playing Garoppolo today.

I don't need to see Jimmy throw 7 picks because he can't throw properly.

 

[The Gr8est]

Well Jimmy starting and playing badly doesn't help the Pats win, and decreases his trade value.

Get through this week and then JG and JB both get the time to heal up fully.

It will definately be another chapter in BB's legacy if he can get the Pats to 4-0 with Brady out, and Brissett getting more snaps than JG.

So then going by your logic if Hightower doesn't play today he's a ****y and should leave after this season because he practiced all week too.

I can't wait for this crazy speculation and guessing to end... really underscores the kind of reliability and stability that Brady offers. Can't wait for him to come back

 

[ViperGTS]

Bring it @QuantumMechanic

Answer this. Does TB play this week if he's in Jimmys position? You'll say doubt it but we both know that would be a lie.

Knee stability is a bit different than a pain tolerance issue. Sorry you can't put that together. Honestly.

we could clinch the division with a win today and a jests loss.

Exactly. I'm frustrated JG is not playing. Actually kind of pissed. Miss Tom.

The pissed part makes me happy. Waaaaaaaaay to many apologists here. I had zero illusions he'd be ready for Thursday night. 2 weeks later? Yeah. I expect more. Much more.

 

[ViperGTS]

The real question everyone needs to ask is this.

Does Tom play?

Whatever the answer to that is what should be here as well. Same standard. It's simple. That how it needs to approached and it's not a hard concept.

 

[Nunchucks]

I was hoping garapolo was gonna be the guy. Bills defense can be scary.

 

[ErniesPinkStripes]

Not looking forward to the JimmyG era where he never plays because he's made of glass.

Perhaps why they're shelving him, to trade for hopefully a bundle... Brady plays another 5 years (IMO) and you find "the next guy" during that span.

 

[goheels22002]

3-1 is pretty sweet but man how great would a win be now. It would just shatter RR's mind lol.

Well they did win 27-0 with Brissett as the starter. Steady.

I don't need to see Jimmy throw 7 picks because he can't throw properly.

Having a sub-par Jimmy play, and possibly get injured, does no one any good, regardless of whether you're in the "GOATroppolo is the future" camp or the "Trade him! Trade him now!" camp or anywhere in between.

 

[Froob]

This talk reminds me of when somebody thought Gronk needed to go after he didn't play the first few games in 2013. "If he isn't ready now, will he ever be?"

I don't think it is fair to hold garapolo to the same standard as the greatest qb to ever play the game

 

[Froob]

When will someone ask Bill if Garopollo and Brissett have both leapfrogged Brady leaving him a gameday inactive?

The answer is absolutely yes. Hence my aggravation.
