Expand Tom Brady should of been picked top of the first round. It didn't happen. The NFL is sometimes unpredictable.

BADOLBILZ Posted August 29, 2018 Posted August 29, 2018 He needs a nickname or a logo or something. Five piece? 5x? Could've been worse.........he had seven drives in that half: -5 of them resulted in pics -1 was just handoffs to McCoy for a TD(which I guess was the one drive he wasn't trying to be the anti-Tyrod) -and the OTHER drive he fumbled a snap and then threw a would-be pic six that the Chargers CB dropped. Should've been a six pack(which incidentally would not have sat well with him or his congregation as 6 is the number of the beast and so forth). 3
Augie Posted August 29, 2018 Posted August 29, 2018 Brady had some attempt at blocking in front of him. Just sayin’ 1

K-9 Posted August 29, 2018 Posted August 29, 2018 Never live it down in whose mind? Peterman has already let it go; certainly not an albatross as far as he goes. And that’s all that matters. I’m sure he could give two schits if anyone else can’t let it go. 2

Fadingpain Posted August 29, 2018 Posted August 29, 2018 Meh. The 5 picks were historically bad but it's in the past now. Nate's career has hardly begun. If he proves to be a good QB, the Chargers game won't mean squat, other than to haters with an agenda. 3
Needle Posted August 29, 2018 Posted August 29, 2018 A situation like that can sometimes fuel a person's drive to work harder or focus more. I dont think Peterman needs to be Brady in order to be satisfied with his career. Half wits need him to fail, so they can congratulate themselves on a message board. 3 1

Expand I’m not naive about it at all as I know you’re right about the media, etc.. I just couldn’t care less what the media or casual fans use to define a player’s career. All that matters to me is how he gets off the mat and responds to the adversity. So far, so good in that regard. Other players may have been crushed completely after that. He seems to have used it to motivate himself. That’s a nice trait for a QB to possess. 2

Expand Is he asked about it constantly? By whom? Anyway, no, I don’t think it bothers him; I think it motivates him if anything. Yes, he still throws highly interceptable balls. Yes, QBs need to play within themselves and their abilities. And no, short memories are also required. QBs can’t let a bad play, series, or game impact their next play. They have no chance if they do.
