    I thought O'Sullivan was the starter?



    Brady just limped off the field with a knee injury. Doesn't look too serious, but a part of me loves seeing that cocky bastard have to be helped off the field.

    I just love seeing NE have to fight to get past Kansas City because of it.

    Good to see them get it done and not getting screwed just because Brady is out.

    KC had a chance to take control of this game several times but they're young and make mistakes veterans don't make.

    Hell, if Dwayne Bowe hadn't dropped 3-4 passes the Chiefs would at minimum have sent the game to OT.

    Well..that settles that. Panthers/Chargers = best game of the day. I didn't care who won, but what a finish.

    Brady's (most likely) out for the season with knee injury. Kinda feel for all the fantasy owners who used the top pick on him but that's life. Maybe the karma from last season finally come back to bite the Pats in the butt?

    I thought the karma was when they won 18 games only to lose the Super Bowl.

    And some of my friends thought I was crazy not to take Brady second overall in our league. I'm glad I didn't, in either of my leagues....

    I actually thought Cassell looked better than Brady today. Brady was throwing it into the ground a lot for how little he played. Perhaps it was just rust he would have worked out, but really, outside of Moss nobody on their team looked that great today.

    Bowe seriously cost the Chefs today. And Gailey still has major brain farts with his play calling.

    Nah, they still made to the big dance and just barely lost. I'd like to see them barely making to the playoffs this year without Brady and then an early exit. :lol

    Running it up the middle on 1st and 10 every possesion doesn't help. Aside from the big Darling catch at the end, nobody could get open down the field. The Chiefs played really tough, but it's obvious they need another draft or two to get where they need to go, and that means drafting a QB.

    At least Sandy Eggo lost.

    Could be big, BIG news regarding this season: Yahoo Sports has an article up saying Tom Brady has a torn ACL and is likely out for the season.


    If or when this is confirmed media-wide, the whole complexion of this season is now completely changed.
