Flacco respect from....Tom Brady!

Beating Sabathia is tough because he gives up so few runs. And like the Pats, the Yanks are held as some sort of Gold Standard in their sport, so beating them, period, is considered noteworthy. But Hammel beats Sabathia is still the sexier headline. Same thing, right?

i understand the notion but say "manning and the broncos D" or "brady and the Pats D" because thats more inline with reality.

Im sorry, is this 2007?

He hasnt done that shit in quite a while.

Who gives a fuck if he does anyway, most QBs complain when they get hit.

Bingo. That is their MO and it comes down from Belicheck (whom I actually respect a lot). If you notice, the Pats are always nice before the game. Then, if they beat us, they talk smack. If they don't, they talk about how badly they played. That's the way to do it.

BA should learn as much. The only thing more bit**a** than talking crap on Twitter the way he did is blowing your lane assignment and spotting the other team 7 points on a 104 kickoff return. Win the game, then run your mouth if you want.

If you wanna call that 'fishing' for flags, I'd say he's using dynamite instead of a pole. Gimme a break, Lady Brady gets no love from me.

Some are a lot worse than others. Peyton Manning and Drew Brees don't bang their hands on the ground like babies when they get taken down. Aaron Rodgers doesn't feel the need to get in the refs ear whenever someone gets too close. Brady has a reputation for whining and complaining and it's not just from the Ravens games. Check out any Jets game or half the Dolphins games he's played. He does the same thing there.

My brother is a Pats fan since their 1st Super Bowl season, where the got demolished by the Bears, and even he agrees. To him it's funny though. He'll take all the whining he can as long as it gets results which is often does.

I've seen him take more questionable hits and get up and keep going. That particular instance I think (even though he was asking for a flag) his floor-slamming was also a sign of just pure frustration of how the game was going more than it was him being upset that there wasn't a flag or that he got hit

Go to Google. Search Tom Brady Whining and you'll get pages and pages of results.

He's a great QB. The best of this current generation but that doesn't mean that he doesn't whine.

He is NOT the best quarterback of all-time. He is not top 20.

You are a hater if you seriously don't believe Brady is a top 20 QB of all time.

Hmmm...I dont know how you could say he isnt in the top 20 of all time. I could see and argument for him not being in the top 5 of all time...but top 20? Really?

Can you honestly name 20 QB's who are better (or were better) than Brady?

This. I don't care what he says during the week or how cool he was on entourage. As soon as he gets pressured he is all up in the refs ear. Same way Manning was last week.

Seen brady take some hits this year that I thought would rattle him, but it didn't. I bet he now realizes that he is not as protected by the refs like he wants to be. He looks at the refs for a call, but doesn't get it the way he did before. Hell, I see welker calling for flags this year.Depends on what happens in the game is how brady will respond after the game. Last game,BB tried to grab a ref and the ref ignored him.
The one thing I don't want to see is brady at the goal line ,taking the snap and pushing the ball over the goal line with his hands. He has done that too many times and gotten a touchdown. Hope the Dline at least hits the ball free of brady's hands before it crosses the goal line.

Hey... if you read into that stuff be my guest.

I can come up with a bunch of examples of how sports team have talked trash all week and still won the game. The Giants both in 07 and last year come to mind....

I don't think he is humble or nice. I don't think he is the best QB of all time, either.

But even if I DID think any of those things, I refuse to root for someone whose balls will forever be washed because he won three Super Bowls while his teams broke the rules for competitive advantage.

Ummmm thats why we hate him lol.... all that wasted on a bunch of obnoxious Bostonians

Brady is a guy you hate while he is playing and miss when he is gone. Like it or not he is a Maestro. One of the best to play the game. That said I hope we knock him silly first time he drops back to pass and goes home calling his wife Mistress Helga.
