Wrong again nitwit. What Brady did with Moss as well as Stallworth is talk to them AFTER his FO targeted them and was working to get them signed. HUGE DIFFERENCE. That is part of reeling them in with the carrot we were dangling - a chance to work with a HOF QB who has already made good WR's look better than they actually were...
Brady never dissed his receivers, even when they were relative scrubs as in 2006. He always had their backs, particularly in public.
Brady has never publicly stated that he needed anything to win, which is part of why he is such a genuine winner. He has also never allowed himself to be intimidated by his receivers or his running backs, which is something Eli has struggled with for 4 years.
I don't know. Ben is a big Goober and shouldn't have said this stuff publically, but Hines Ward strikes me as a big (not tall!) insecure baby who is "stung" every time somebody doesn't think he's the absolute best. He openly hated Plax when he played with him and he's obviously still resentful of the guy.
Plus, all the better for us if there is dissention on the Steelers! You boys keep fighting like my kids and we'll keep going to the Superbowl!!
