Feed him some chicken soup, Gis.

 

[neuronet]

Every year this happens to some players, and every year we wonder why it isn't mandatory to have flu shots.

Damnit.

Get well soon Tom

Does that mean he is going to win the Super Bowl this weekend? The last time I remember Brady came down with the flu, he won the Super Bowl the next day.... Or was it the AFC CHampionship game vs. The Steelers?

 

[signbabybrady]

still has a few days to recover. In the meantime ham it up so the whole world knows he has the flu and his performance Sunday despite it should end the MVP debate ok maybe a stretch.

 

[Rob0729]

Yes, it was the AFC Championship game vs. the Steelers

Tom Brady shook off the flu and led the Patriots to a - 02.16.05 - SI Vault

Well, at least he's getting it out of the way so he won't have it in the playoffs...

Hernandez had it last week and he played. Just hope it doesn't spread like wildfire through the locker room.

Maybe he'll have a performance like he did in the AFC Championship game in Pittsburgh in 2004, when he was also battling the flu.

While it's not cause for alarm, it is a bummer. If I was Giselle, I'd be worried about my one year old catching it 2 days before Christmas!! What's more of a bummer is all the other people who didn't practice. Hope this is just the team's way of giving guys a rest and a break down the stretch and not an indication that we are going to be seriously undermanned on Sunday. I want to clinch the 1st seed! C'mon guys! Get better!!

 

[Rob0729]

All I know is I have the flu and have had it all week. I made it to work every day. So Brady should suck it up.

We were seriously undermanned last sunday especially on the dline and I wouldn't expect that to change until the playoffs. I know nothing is locked down yet but with the Pats record there is no need to be rushing guys back give them extra time to get right.

The flu sucks. Get better!

Gotta feeling TB will suck it up too.

 

[sieglo]

Better now than in the postseason.

 

[IcyPatriot]

Seriously i would not mind seeing Hoyer at the wheel for a game ... why not.

Week 17, my friend...after everything has been locked up.

 

[Brady2Welker]

He's got plenty of time to recover, as long as he can get into meeting he's fine.

 

[Deus Irae]

 

[BlueThunder]

Don't spread it...stay home for a day or two

Glass Jawed Wimp.
I knew we should have kept Cassel

I got my flu shot this year.

I have the flu.

Hope he has the one I have, it's not bad.

I have a moderate temperature, aches and body chills. Massive headache in the mornings. It's been three days.

But, I'm perfectly fine to get around, body feels pretty strong. I'm in kind of a haze tho. Been working and also doing pre-Christmas stuff with the family Felt pretty weak last night when I was outside breaking down boxes from Xmas gifts out in the freezing cold for this morning's garbage pickup. I feel about 95% right now and told my wife the mild flu I had is over.
