NFL....why not?

Nine passing TD's through two games.

His level of talent is now beyond anything we've ever seen in any sport, from a longevity standpoint. It's like it's getting weird now.

I would hate to be a defensive lineman playing against him having to balance wanting to sac the hell out of him without being THE PLAYER that sends him to retirement.

Agreed.

But there is something different about Bradys general health regimen.

He suffered his worst and only injury that prevented him from playing all the way back in 2008.

For someone who plays as physically punishing a sport as football in a high value target position every other injury has really been minor and ultimately insignificant to his ability to play.

Brett Farve has the record for being sacked, 525 times in his career.

Brady is at 524 and the current leader in terms of active players with Big Ben right behind at 520.

As per Draft Sharks Ben has an 80% chance of being injured this year and 9% chance per game.

Tom, 5% chance for the year and 0.3% per game.

I'm starting to believe he's an alien.

Not quite Clark Kent super human, maybe somewhere between Khan and the rest of us.

For many years, the discussion has been “Is the Patriot’s success due to TB, or is it Coach B?”

The better TB does without Coach B, the better his career, as a whole, looks.

I was excited to see Cam Newton coached by Coach B.

Cam has wicked talent, and I hoped he’d flourish there, but didn’t work out that way.

I'm convinced that if he would have landed in Detroit...they would have been in the playoffs last season.
The other players strive to do their best around him.

His health regiment is off the charts , then add mental toughness and the will to win =GOAT . He kind of reminds me of Michael Schumacher and makes everyone around him better .

If he needed the cash (which he doesn't)...he could name his price..even with his age.

Because Brady doesn't just play the physical game.

Brady is just a joy to watch.... simply amazing. I just wish the Panthers didn't have to face him twice in the last three games of the season. I know what's coming ...

...at least Brees finally "quit" :D
