Poll for worst starting QB has Brady on it?

Sometimes I honestly believe that Patriots fans scour every inch of the internet in search of any perceived slight against TFB or BB. Then they bring it back to these forums to whine about it and seek reassurance that “it's true, everyone is indeed out to get our guys”.

I've never seen a group of fans who were more insecure in my life. It kind of saddens me.

In other news, Tom Brady gets a haircut post gets 3,376 views.

10 years (since the first League Championship) in the long history of a league like the NFL is a relatively short period of time in which to become accustomed to the attacks that come with success, so I'd cut those folks some slack. Only with the Krafts, Belichick and Brady did the Patriots become a top franchise and, I think, to many it still feels like that could evaporate or be taken away overnight. So, it's easy to be skittish and defensive.

I've lived in NYC for over 20 years now and never cease to be amazed at the confidence of Yankees fans; I guess 27 League Championships does that to you. There's really nothing that anyone from outside their ring of support can say that really bothers them. When I lived in Boston, I used to love to join the chant of "Yankees suck" at Fenway; after living among Yankee fans for a few years, I became aware that they thought those chants were just plain silly and laughed at them or ignored them ("THEY're tell US that WE suck? Whom do they think their kidding?"). Even after the humbling of 2004, they still feel superior and chuckle at the recent collapse as typical of the "same old Sox."

In other words, give Pats fans a few more years to grow into the confidence that comes with greatness and cut them some slack in the meantime.
