Reading that "Trade Brady thread" got me researching.
And....
Jesus....
They also have a quarterback that knows the Patriots system very well. That is
Brady Quinn. Now I know that is the tough part of the sell as it should be. Tom Brady has three Super Bowl rings and Brady Quinn hasn't really lived up to the hype. That is an indisputable fact, but there are factors involved.
Quinn is known for throwing the short passes and not having a great deep ball. That may be true, but how is that any different from Brady?
The reality is that Quinn and Brady are really mirror images of each other. I know that may sound hard to believe, but if you actually watch film on the two guys, you will see that the only difference is the players around them.
