    How so? He's only played 4 postseason games in his career, and the first lasted all of like 2 minutes. Last week, he threw for 350 yards and had a 90+ QBRating. He had a sucky game in 2009 and today. That's not much of a sample size.

    You obviously didn't watch him last week. That game had no business being as close as it was, and it was in large part due to him sailing throws and throwing picks... He was erratic. His own coach called him out for thinking too much, checking down when he shouldn't have, and making bad decisions.

    The final numbers grossly inflated by his two OT "passes" (a 15 yard duck that turns into a 75 yard run after catch, and a TD handoff that gets counted as a pass due to it being a shovel).

    Also, care to point out what Hoyers "qb rating" was for the season? It's a terrible metric of whether or not a QB is good. You have to watch the games.

    And just because this is his reputation now, doesn't mean he can't turn it around... But it's now a valid question (especially give his advanced age) of whether or not he can play mistake free football in the playoffs.

    Any casino taking bets on SB 51 champs now? I'd put money on Brady and the Pats to win it all next year. The Broncos will transition to Osweiler, Wade's D will be year 2, the Bengals will be the Bungles, Colts even with Luck have a talent deficit. Only the Cheifs, Steelers, and Pats are worth anything in the AFC and I don't trust the Chiefs or Big Ben's health. Could be easy money to lay on the Pats SB 51 Champs.

    to me Brady is a great QB but it wasn't like Brady was the only reason why you lost to the Patriots it was because of their special teams, their defense, belicheck figuring out a new way to cheat.


    But in regards to the graph above the one thing I would like to see is the W/L of those games - it says 11-5 for Brady but what are the 5 games he lost? Would be interesting to see
