Much has been made lately about Tom Brady's throwing or lack thereof. Tom Curran, of the ProJo, had 3 entries on his BLOG on Friday night when he realized that Brady wasn't going to play. He also had 2 stories in the ProJo about Brady being inactive or not throwing in practices. There have been calls to WEEI from concerned fans about the lack of Brady throwing the ball in practice. From my point of view, what's the big deal? Does Brady know the offense? Didn't stories come out at the end of the year last year that Brady couldn't even lift his fork on on Mon & Tues following games? and that he sometimes didn't throw at all during the week leading up to games? Yes. Yes. and Yes. So don't you think Belichick is smart to sit him out and rest him vs. his own team? YES! I'd prefer Brady have an arm in December and January than an arm in August, and you?
I just want to point something out that I noticed about Brady a couple of months ago, during the June mini camp. Take a look at these pictures, notice anything a little out of the ordinary?
Does Flutie look like he's 10 years old or what?
Honsetly though, besides that, what do you notice?
Tom Brady making a statement about his former Michigan teammate. The guy HE made the #4 overall pick coming out of college. Look at the #'s on the shorts. Brady wearing Terrell's #10 and Terrell wearing Brady's #12. Take that for what it's worth.
One note I forgot to add about Friday's game: Wesley Mallard was pretty damn good on special teams. He's one of the guys they brought in, a 'linebacker' that is here to be like Izzo and just be a special teams ace.
He is.
Here are some common observations from camp on Sun and Mon:
Ben Watson is back with a vengeance.
Mike Vrabel has not been seen, on the field or off.
Ty Poole has been the best player in the secondary.
Tim Dwight has been superb on punt & kick returns.
