Tom Brady Epic Fail

[Oldblood]

Back to the comment about Brady's career being over. I don't think its a slam dunk that he comes back at full strength. Look at Carson Palmer's decline due to the same injury. A QB's legs are very important.

You could argue that Carson Palmer suffers equally from being at Cincinnati, but you have a point in that the legs are almost as important as the arms in a QBs throwing motion.

Carson Palmer's knee is fine. His elbow bothered him all year this year not his knee and his knee didn't even really bother him much last year....

Where should i start!? The Colts offense focuses more on passing the ball rather than running it, while up until last year the Patriots had focused more on running the ball rather than passing it.

Here is the the percentage of offensive plays that are passes.

Indy, NE

2000: 56.7%, 57.1%
2001: 55.9%, 52.1%
2002: 58.1%, 60.6%
2003: 56.1%, 53.9%
2004: 56.3%, 47.6%
2005: 53.6%, 56.2%
2006: 54.8%, 52.7%
2007: 56.3%, 56.9%

Other than 2004, not that much difference.
