Probably a bit of arrogance... + the fact that Brady had never missed a start in over 7 seasons prior to this one...they just didnt feel the need to sign a good backup.
They did have Flutie and Testaverdie at different points backing Brady...but not for the past 2 seasons and the 3rd stringer is Matt Guterrez who was a long time backup at Michigan and played 1 year at Idaho to get some PT which got him in to the NFL.... not a very strong resume either.
If this collapse by the Pats shows one thing...it confims myself and others who believe in Brady as one of the Top 5 QBs ever. Anyone who dismisses Brady's value to the Pats now, be a fool...imo.
