Tom Brady seems hellbent on flattening the most important storyline of this Patriots season. The major question hovering over the team for the entire offseason was, How's his knee? On WEEI this morning, he was asked how long he saw himself playing and he took the opportunity to point out his physical well-being. "I feel the best I’ve ever felt," Brady said. "Guys retire at the quarterback position and other positions because they can’t run anymore. That’s what the game comes down to for 90 percent of the players. For a quarterback, it’s not an issue. I was slow to start, and I’m slower now, and I’ll be slower 10 years from now, and so is Favre, and so is Peyton Manning. All these guys, no one can run . . . "For a quarterback, it’s about throwing the football. Assuming my arm feels great, there’s not a whole lot of other things that are going to keep me wanting to be out there and wanting to play. Five or six years ago, my arm was hurting every day throwing the football. I always used to think, ‘How can I play and always have my arm hurting?’ Now my arm never hurts. I really understand my arm. It’s something every quarterback should learn. I know how many throws I can make. I know how to get in shape during the season, I know how to maintain during the season. Even when a guy like [Albert] Haynesworth falls on my shoulder, that could have been pretty significant. Because my arm so flexible and loose in a good way, it’s able to withstand those type of things. hopefully, that’s the way it always is, and if that’s the case, I’ll just keep playing ’til I’m collecting social security."

Good to hear. Maybe someday Bill will even take him off the injury report with a bad shoulder:icon_rolleyes:
Go Tom Brady! Finally all better....thank god cause I am totally never drafting brees next year for Fantasy. I miss Brady lol hes more consistent (with the exception of last year and the one superbowl fiasco but no one is perfect)
Never. I hope he's all better too. I don't hate the Patriots, but I don't love them either. I just hope a Chiefs player didn't ruin the rest of his career.
