Comments on: Tom Brady let his teammates know Sunday’s effort wasn’t good enough

My biggest disappointment is in the play of Aaron Hernandez. I think he is afraid of taking hits. So many drops, and in some cases not giving a full effort to get to the ball. There was one play, it looked like all he had to do was bend and extend a little bit and he didn’t even try. You could see how upset Brady was.

By the way, it wasn’t all bad news for 49er fans this week because it looks like the Giants won’t make the playoffs. The sigh of relief you heard coming from San Francisco was just that, a sigh of relief. Not the other kind of sigh you though you might hear emanating from San Francisco.

To the one of many ignorant posters above me, TB did say after the game that HE has to do a better job and not turn the ball over. Leaders should always start with themselves with accountability and he does.

Great, just what the Dolphins need, a pissed off Tom Brady and a pissed off Patriots team. This could be interesting.
——————————————————-
I wouldn’t be too scared. Fins traditionally play very well defensively against the Pats. I used to think it was mostly due to JT, but they played them tough this year as well. If the Pats win, it will be another tight game I think.
The move of this game to 4:30 could play in as well since the Pats will know when their game starts if they have a shot at the #2 seed or not. (There’s 0 chance Den loses to KC at 4:30 anyway). BB might not put iffy injury guys out there much, which will only make the game tighter (like we saw in Jax).

Brady needs to look at his own mistakes as well. He’s just pissed because its playoff time in fantasy football and he obviously has himself. He’s mad that they havent been able to run up the score and throw from inside the 5 yard line while up 35 points with 2 mins left in the game.

OMG! Watch out Dolphins! Brady is gonna score 60 points on you guys! Wake must be shaking in his boots, and Philbin, as we speak, is pleading for mercy from his Maker! Reggie Bush will fake an injury so he doesn’t have to subject himself to the terror of Jerrod Mayo, while Tannehill is already running for his life!

Wait til BB gets into his act! Stephen Ross will force himself to sell the team!

So many haters around here. LOL @ Brady wearing thin on his teammates. Any offensive player not playing for the Packers or Broncos right now would give an arm and a leg to be on the same team as Tom Brady and winning organization like the Patriots.

When has Brady ever not held himself accountable for poor play?

The bottom line is they played abysmally against the Jags. The JAGS. And this is a team that is #1 is scoring, in the playoffs and is a SB favorite and they aren’t playing like it.

I’m a lifelong diehard Packers fan, but if I had to pick a different qb to lead my team, it would hands down be Brady. Dude has all the stats, the postseason accolades and 3 rings and still plays with a passion few have.

Don’t think for one minute he was whining….. He was doing what he does best: LEADING his team into the playoffs.

Couldn’t have been that the home team actually showed up.

We showed up vs. the Packers, too.

Against everyone else? Laid so many eggs the dang next is full.

Brady has more rings and postseason wins than any QB playing right now and it’s because of his passion.

(along with films of the other teams practices, a great defense, and a HOF kicker)

@mazblast

If you want to compare Bradys performance vis a visa Roethlisbergers’, be my guest.

Interception from deep in his own territory with 19 seconds left in the season vs the Bengal?

Perhaps, you could spend the time between now and the moment you pick 17th in the draft to focus on your own QB.

That Sunday night Niner/Pats game GUTTED the two teams. It was evident by the way they both played yesterday. Too bad the Niners couldn’t have gotten a cup cake like the Jags

They should have taken a handful of “adderall” and gone the ‘hawk’s way. It would be 2014 by the time the testing got done and the results disputed and appealed.

While this was said in jest, I do think there’s “just a few” players, coaches and trainers sitting and thinking up ways to beat the system.

“That’s two weeks in a row I haven’t been able to fatten my stats by playing with a huge lead. It’s ALL YOUR FAULT, and if you don’t get this straightened out, I’m going to throw more hissy-fits.”

And here I thought temper tantrums were for so-called supermodels, not their escorts.

and the defensive secondary reverted back to disgracefulness

Chalk that up to both starting corners out and McCourty having to move from safety to corner.

It was essentially last year’s secondary, and we know how that worked out stat-wise.

Brady is just a competitor who wants to win while playing mistake free. Yet when he flips out or gives passionate pep talks, he’s labeled a whiner.

Brady has more rings and postseason wins than any QB playing right now and it’s because of his passion.

Maybe if your QB and your franchise shared the same sentiments, you’d be in the postseason or wearing rings.

Hate on

So what did Tommie Tantrum do, stomp around the locker room with his arms folded while holding his breath? His childish behavior -that somehow people characterize as leadership – has got to be wearing thin on his teammates. I mean, seriously, when was the last time this dude won anything?

If that’s supposed to be Brady’s numbers, he actually went 24/41 267 yds, 2 Tds, 2 Ints. Not much difference, and not sure how you only had him having 1 Int being he had 2 Ints by the 2nd quarter.
