Tom Brady

[Shadows]

Will he come back and own the shit out of everyone?

Will he continue his reign for another Dynasty?*

Or is Bill Billichecks franchise tag on lil ol' Matt Cassel a sign that Brady's injury is far worse then is being let on?

I think he will get his groove back and that the tag is just to be sure.

^U do know that he had more surgerys b/c it kept getting infected right?

No I did not know that. In any case, isn't the revalidation period much longer in AF as well? I know ligament tears from years of following football, but it was said when Brady got injured he'd be out for a year, maybe even longer. That's much longer than most football injuries. Is this always the case with American Football?

i think he'll be healthy but he wont be the same tom brady

he fucked up when he chose his own doctor of the teams

Word is he is behind on recovery and may not play this season as well, i think slapping the FT on Cassal shows us that bradys injury is worse than expected, not to mention some QB's never come back completly right after a knee injury, and im not talking from a physical view im talking from a mental view.

Brady was known for his ability to hang in the pocket till the last possible second and make the right throw but will he now hesitate or even let the ball go early in fear of another injury like the one he took in KC? Not to mention will he be afraid to step full force into a pass if a defender is coming at his knee that was repaired? Its all a mental thing, in the long run if he can over come that then he will rule the NFL like normal if not Cassell has got a job and im sure Tom Brady will be in Dallas filling in for Romo since most washed up talant lands there now a days.

Great ownage in the thread, though I think Pats, and Raiders all take washed up talent, not just the Cowboys.

However, I ultimately agree.

It depends. Some people play injured their whole football career just to avoid stuff like that.

For instance, not many people know Shawne Merriman was NEVER healthy in the NFL. The first game he started, he busted some tear in his knee. Now that someone made it worse purposefully, he had to get it repaired and he is said to feel better than ever.

Injuries are part of the game, but not something you have to have countless surgeries on.

and Yak Pac Fatal,

I agree, he should have only used the teams doctors. Who knows if that doctor he knew was secretly a Colt fan or something.

Matt Cassel to Chiefs. I guess he is better alright.
