Interesting blurb on the Brady Injury... (1 Viewer)

I found this when surfing around Philly.com today getting my daily insight on the misery of being a Phillies fan. I don't buy it, but perhaps some of the Pats homers could shed some light as this obviously impacts many of us if for some reason it would be true.

Reliable source?

Make of this what you will, but there is a yet-to-be- confirmed rumor floating out there that Tom Brady's foot injury may be worse than he's been letting on. Like, "out for four games' " worth. From NFL Juice:

"This just in.

"We've received news from a reliable news source, that would like to remain anonymous (initials E.B.), that Tom Brady will likely be missing between two and four weeks of the regular season."

Apparently the last tip this guy gave was right on, so now I don't know what to believe. And while this may be true, it's equally plausible that NFL Juice came up with this simply to mess with the guy holding the number-one pick in their fantasy draft.

All I know is that the last time I took a tip from a guy named E.B., I ended up buying a worthless gold claim in a fledgling South Dakota mining community.

Old 'rumor' news and thoroughly disproven. Brady is practicing and planning on playing week 1.

Brady says he's ready to play in Patriots' opener

By HOWARD ULMAN – 18 hours ago

FOXBOROUGH, Mass. (AP) — Tom Brady ran through agility drills and said he's ready to play in the New England Patriots' opener. Bill Belichick isn't ready to say that will happen. Neither is much of a surprise.

It would be a big surprise if the record-setting quarterback, who had a right foot injury and missed all four exhibition games, doesn't start Sunday against the Kansas City Chiefs.

"If it's up to me, there's no question" Brady said Monday. "I've been getting progressively better over the past couple of weeks. I'm excited. I'm excited to start the year."

The secretive Belichick deflected a question about whether last season's NFL MVP would start Sunday.

"We will give you the injury report on Friday," he told reporters Monday. "We will give you the practice report after we practice."

Absolutely, 100% a myth.
