Wacka Posted July 17, 2021 Posted July 17, 2021 Over/under on what year Brady will be permanently in a wheelchair?
TroutDog Posted July 17, 2021 Posted July 17, 2021 Didn’t read all the links but a partial tear does not, necessarily, present as something serious. My ACL and MCL in my right knee are both partially torn but I can get by. With a brace, I would not be limited. Don’t know if he wore one this year. While I wholeheartedly agree he has willingly cheated countless times, he gets a pass from me this time until more information comes out…if it ever does. Not that the NFL is complicit: that would NEVER happen! 😃 1

machine gun kelly Posted July 17, 2021 Posted July 17, 2021 Fargin Bastages Im going to get that icehole. (Young guys, find Johnny Dangerously if you want a good laugh) They talked about this on NFLR and if Brady never told the trainers, but just wore the brace, there is nothing to fine. If he did tell the trainers, and they treated him, then the fine would apply. It’s that simple. The fine though would be to the Bucs, not to Brady. Think about it, if Brady didn’t tell anyone his knee bothered him (players do that all the time to protect their position), then how are the Bucs supposed to know. The guy is 43 so seeing him in a brace is not shocking.
BuffaloBill Posted July 17, 2021 Posted July 17, 2021 You have to wonder why he would wish to tarnish his legacy with the cheating. 1

After hiding a Brett Favre injury during the 2008 season, the Jets were hit with a $125,000 fine. In a more recent situation, the Steelers were fined $100,000 in 2019 -- $75,000 for the team and $25,000 for Mike Tomlin -- for not accurately listing Ben Roethlisberger on their Week 2 injury report."

I don’t disagree, but they have to prove it have records he informed the team. If not, they can’t do anything. It’s not like Brady is so forthright. Remember the phone issue with deflate gate. 1

I had never in my life been so happy to see Brady put a beatdown on another team like against the Chiefs and Mahomes in the super bowl. 2
Southern_Bills Posted July 17, 2021 Posted July 17, 2021 I hate Brady as much as the next guy, but really who cares about this. Playing injured and telling no one isn't really an advantage, possibly to the effect people won't try to go after injured body parts I guess. NFL should punish equally, that I agree on, but that's not the player or teams fault they don't do their job properly. But hey if they force Brady into retirement over it I won't lose any sleep. 🤣
NoSaint Posted July 17, 2021 Posted July 17, 2021 32 teams do this the big punishment will be a fine and not some suspension or loss of picks If forced to bet I think joshs non throwing shoulder was not 100% and I don’t blame anyone for leaving it off the reports if true. Being forced to disclose key players have vulnerable spots to target has never been a rule I love. 1

Only if he disclosed would the coach and team be punished, not the player. The player is not obligated to disclose as he can easily say he’s fine or an excuse Like a little arthritis in the knee. They can’t subpoena his medical records regarding Hippa if done by a private HCP. the only thing in question is if he disclosed and then the team is responsible, not him.
Over 29 years of fanhood Posted July 17, 2021 Posted July 17, 2021 Didn’t the Bills have one of these with Hughes in the past two years?
Saxum Posted July 17, 2021 Posted July 17, 2021 I think this is a sign that Bruce Arians is going to retire and Billicheat as GM is going to fire Billicheat will take his job.

And the league investigated it. Brady isn’t Hughes and JH isn’t associated with multiple cheating for competitive edge scandal. 1
SCBills Posted July 17, 2021 Posted July 17, 2021 (edited) Don’t really care. I’m sure we do this too. I can’t even muster the hate for Brady anymore, now that he’s gone from the Pats. He’s the GOAT and terrorized my entire adult life until recently. We finally have our guy, with the pieces around him…. Brady can do whatever he wants, for however long he wants - whatever - and I’ll look forward to dominating the Bucs when we get the chance. Edited July 17, 2021 by SCBills

This happens every year. Jerry Hughes got a slap on the wrist for this the year we lost to HOU I believe
