Got to pay my respects to him. I feel fortunate that not only do we have one of the best quarterbacks in the game whose mental toughness is exemplary, but also someone who is one tough son of a *****.

Tom is certainly a rarity amongst today's primadonnas... the rib injury has to be very painful when he throws..

This guy's a warrior!

I'll leave it to those who know more about these things than do I to say what portion of the hits he takes could be reduced by better line play or blocking schemes.

But the bottom line is that this has got to be taking a toll on Brady over time. It's probably premature now, but at some point we'll probably start talking about the impact of all the violence his body absorbs on his longevity in the League.

You dont hear too much of this, he is taking this team on his back, and leading them to the playoffs... You cant say enough about Tom Brady... .

It would be a great scenario if the Pats would have the East locked up going into the Houston game, give Brady the game off, or have him play a few snaps. That week of not getting hit, could be a huge difference in the playoffs.
