Turk71 Posted October 9, 2020 Posted October 9, 2020 Brady thinking he had another down was a classic moment. Hilarious. 1
bills and clippers fan Posted October 10, 2020 Posted October 10, 2020 No one has mentioned this. And I got the feeling immediately away after watching. After watching him for almost 20 years, he did not react as if he KNEW he had another down. He knows the expectations set on him. So I honestly feel he made it up. He knew it was 4th down, but pretended like it was third, so he could have an excuse for his bad throw in tight coverage (nearly intercepted). His body language/long pause give it away. Ask yourself this. How would he have reacted if he REALLY thought he had one more down left. Freaking liar. It's possible he simply forgot, but I doubt it.
Hapless Bills Fan Posted October 10, 2020 Posted October 10, 2020 10 hours ago, WideNine said: Belichick went with a heavy run-oriented offense the last few years to try to save Brady's arm for the post season. It is inevitable at Brady's age that his arm will get gradually less effective as the season progresses. We have seen it in older QBs before - they tend to get noodle arm. The Bears defense was able to put a lot of pressure on him with just a 4-man rush so they can do a lot of things well defensively that other clubs cannot use. I do think Brady's move was childish and shows the level of self-centered ego he possesses, but we knew that before and have seen the pouting and tantrums. I am sure he did not like the fact that Belichick took his backup QB and played KC down to the wire this week too as it lent credence to the argument that Brady's success was rooted in the system and game plans that Belichick devises that tilts the field in the Patriots favor whether Brady is there or not. Of course Belichick will also exploit any avenue of gaining an edge even outside the rules, which Brady gladly went along with which will taint both their legacies. Errr.....KC beat NE 26-10. The backup QBs only managed 3 points until the 4th Q. Hoyer threw 1 pick and lost a fumble, Stidham threw 2 picks. NE had 185 yds rushing. I would give credit for the game being reasonably close until the end of the 4Q to the NE D and to the NE run game, not to the backup QB.

I know KC won, but Belichick kept the game close, and it may have been closer had the officials not erased a clear Mahommes fumble deep in their own territory. He did it with basically scrubs at QB and strong defense. I cannot believe that there were some that thought Stidham was going to walk onto the field and be a star just because Belichick was there. Ol' Bill still needs some vet savvy to execute his game plans to win. Either way keeping that game close, and being able to roll with Newton in previous games, what does that say about the value that Brady brought to NE especially later in his career? There were plenty of articles that delved into the breakup and hurt pride, but my thoughts are that Belichick has a better chance (with Cam) of delivering in the post season than Brady has with Tampa. Time will tell. The ideal scenario is we knock NE off and the Bucs miss the post season too. That way they both are sidelined and irrelevant.

I've been saying for months that I can't believe Belicheat's plan was to go into the season with Stidham or Hoyer. Cam fell into their laps by not getting picked-up by anyone else and agreeing to play for peanuts. 1
Don Otreply Posted October 10, 2020 Posted October 10, 2020 Its just so wonderful when Tom loses and then acts the child for us all to see, it just reinforces the giant asterisks on his career, and to make things all the better, the patsies lost as well, 😁👍 2
Call_Of_Ktulu Posted October 10, 2020 Posted October 10, 2020 Foles should send Brady a strongly worded letter for that.
BuffaloBills1998 Posted October 10, 2020 Posted October 10, 2020 that look you give when you get your anniversary date wrong. Its the 4th right? LMAO
Call_Of_Ktulu Posted October 10, 2020 Posted October 10, 2020 Does anyone know if Brady gave hand shakes to the QB's in his previous 3 games? Its not that big of a deal but I just cannot stand Brady.

Yup, Tawmy has a long history of tantrums, pouting, and poor sportsmanship, this, on top of knowingly befitting from years of Belichiks constant cheating, the giant asterisks on his career is never going away. When someone is a cheat at their life’s work it makes them dishonorable and untrustworthy. 1

He’s probably more pissed that the refs aren’t bailing him out like they used to when he was in New England 1

stevewin Posted October 10, 2020 Posted October 10, 2020 (edited) I know he's not everyone's favorite - but enjoyed Rome's take on Brady's BS Quote Answer: hell yes. He had no idea what down it was. I’ll get to his crappy explanation later, but believe me – he didn’t know what down it was. Why else would he be standing on the field holding up four fingers? And that is absolutely, completely inexcusable. BORDERLINE CRIMINAL. You can’t do that in a two-minute drill. Actually, you can’t do that any time. Certainly not if you’re Tom Brady. Who are you, Brian Hoyer? Except Hoyer would know what down it was. He wouldn’t know how many timeouts there were, but he’d know what down it was. Was that a senior moment from the old man? He looked totally confused and completely lost, like a KID who can’t find his parents in a grocery store. Tom Brady is supposed to be a detail guy. Remember over the summer when he was going to his offensive coordinator’s house when he shouldn’t have been and when he was getting the guys together at a high school when they shouldn’t have been, wasn’t that all about the details? Maybe instead of having practices together, they should’ve just done basic numbers. Tom, this is a one, that’s followed by this number, two, and then this one, three, and then comes four. And four is important in football because there is no fifth down. And then after you learn to count, we can get to work on your ABC’S, tommy. And by the way, if you do somehow, some way forget, there are usually some signs around the stadium to help you out. There’s the dude on the sideline with the number and usually some massive freaking scoreboards that will tell you as well. And remember earlier in the game, when he was f-bombing his offensive linemen up and down for screwing up? You do that, you show your teammates up like that, and you better freaking be able to count to four. You cannot scream your lungs out at teammates for a mistake and going brainded, and then melt mentally and cost your team the game yourself. Totally unacceptable. And if you do that…, you sure as all hell, better own it after the game. But if you’re looking for Brady to own something, keep on moving, because that’s not his deal; that’s not he his: not in New England. And not Tampa; not anywhere: That answer about screwing up the downs is actually worse than screwing up the downs. Did you hear that garbage? And let me read you his answer: "Yeah, you're up against the clock and you're up against the -- I knew we had to gain a chunk, so I should have been thinking more first down instead of chunk in that situation. I knew we needed a chunk and I was thinking about more yardage. It was just bad execution. We had a great opportunity there so ... Just didn't execute when we needed to." So to a question of what happened on that final play? Tom’s answer was to puke out the word “chunk” three times in two sentences and then to say it was bad execution, without once admitting or owning what he did. What an absolutely bullcrap response. Avoid the question altogether and just start throwing around some meaningless football jargon and talk straight out your ass; and whatever you do, don’t own any of it. His teammates must be like, this guy is the goat? This guy is the guy we’ve all looked up to and couldn’t wait to be around: the so-called goat can’t even keep track of downs!!! You knew? Bullcrap you knew. But I’ll play along for a minute. You knew? Ok. Then why were you holding up four fingers after it went down? Were you just lobbying for that all-important Colorado buffs fifth down? And if you knew, why the hell did you come off the field looking so confused, and beleaguered. And why were you so pissed on the sideline after it happened. Because you didn’t know. So stop lying and saying you did. Own that. And the fact that Nick Foles beat you. Again. So you can go ahead and also own the fact that Foles owns you. Brady also spoke of something we all saw with our own eyes; that they are an extremely undisciplined team last night, quote: “penalties, they just, they stop drives.” Right. You know what else stop drives? Losing track of the downs, TB43. And to pretend it didn’t happen when the entire world saw that it did, is an idiot move. Don’t be a dope. Admit it. Own it. Apologize for it. Promise it will never happen again. And keep moving. People will forgive most things of a guy who has won six rings; but not lying or treating us like we’re idiots. Which is what he’s doing. The more things change the more they stay exactly the same: and this dude still isn’t owning jack. Except at least he got away with that crap in New England when he was winning. Not anymore. Bruce Arians was asked if Brady thought it was third down, not fourth down, and his response was: "Yeah, he knew.” Respectfully, and I do mean that because I really respect Bruce Arians, but that sounds like a bunch of crap. And you know what it sounds like a bunch of crap? Because it is bunch of crap. If it looks like crap, smells like crap and tastes like crap. It’s crap. And so is losing track of downs and then lying about it afterwards. https://omny.fm/shows/the-jim-rome-show/jim-rome-hour-1-10-9-2020?t=9m36s https://www.jimrome.com/articles/admit-your-mistake-tom Edited October 10, 2020 by stevewin 1
reddogblitz Posted October 10, 2020 Posted October 10, 2020 Maybe he was lobbying for a 5th down like Colorado got years ago? I like the headline in the Seattle Times about the game Tuesday. Bears Hold Off Patriots in a 19-17 Win LOL 1
