There should have been no flag called for hitting his arm, either, but, here we are.
Brady gets those calls by the nature of being Brady. It makes the defenders slacken off a bit, because a ten yard sack could be flagged as fifteen yard gain and the best way to beat Brady is to put him on his ***, which is exactly what the Giants did.
Without all the rules favoring QB's and WR's and facing guys like Lawrence Taylor or Bruce Smith or Reggie White or the Steel Curtain that "great" quarterback would a "good" quarterback.
And, this Mike, is why I can respect you as a fan. One of my best friends is a Pats/Red Sox fan (Bills/Yanks here) so we do a lot of good natured ribbing back and forth.
Mr. Loudmouth **** talking bandwagon jumper (who claims he's been a "fan" since Grogan) is such a "long time fan" he had to be reminded of the losses to the Bears and the Pack.
Guaranteed he didn't even look at the team during the 1-15 seasons and the only reason he knows who Bledsoe is is because Bledsoe got them to the first Super Bowl win when Brady got knocked out of the AFC title game that year.
People don't necessarily hate the Pats' success (I don't begrudge anyone success), but with all the **** talking bandwagon jumpers like your "fan" peer, we just can't stand the idiots like him. When the Pats lose another championship it knocks em down a notch.
For me, as a Bills fan, I can't stand any team in division. So, like I said, I was hating on Patsies before it was cool.
