Why Did Brady Play A Full Half Last Night?

[King Colt]

Brady played a full half last night and I can't figure why. He will not see a game snap until they play the Bengals in week five. Was it worth the risk? Did that 30 minutes make any difference to him after all his years? I had the sound off because I was watching the Cowboys get beat by the Texans but I assume the front OL was all rookies and that does not make sense at all with Bridgewater and Romo already gone.

A quote from BB-" I don't know. That is a good question"

He really said that? I could see him saying that, is the sad thing.

To show off his new hair cut when being shown on the sidelines after every series. I am surprised he even played. He actually didn't even play well, he had 1 good scoring drive but had an interception and was throwing a lot of ducks. Eli didn't play at all. I was watching this game before the Colts came on, that is what was on the NFL Network here in Indy.

How dare you question the God of football.

Rob Ninkovich is getting suspended for the first 4 weeks of the season for using a banned substance. Not looking good in New England for this first month.

This could be a rough start for NE

Yeah he is a Good player, they will still probably start 2-2. It wouldn't hurt my feelings if they started 1-3 or 0-4 though. Without HFA I cant see them getting back to the SB looking at the long run of things. A slow start will mess them up a bit.

Because the NY Giants and Eli still play tricks on BB's and Brady's minds

It's funny no matter how great one can be, they still struggle against certain teams. Patriots and Steelers have owned us, Colts have owned the Broncos and Ravens, Broncos and Giants have owned the Patriots. Hard to explain.

He's being replaced....

He played because he knew he'll be getting plenty of rest .

Because the starters never play in pre-season game 4, and Brady isn't the starter

[BertJones]

he wont get any real practice for a month. they let the fans see him because he wont be around much longer anyway.

when he gets back,his timing will be off for the first couple weeks. I'm still picking Browns to beat them.

its over,its all over.

 Gronk will get injured etc

Because not even the Patriots want to see Garoppolo full time if they don't have to as long as they can avoid it.

I doubt the Pats with Brady lose to the Browns. Like really doubt it.

Fines, lost draft picks, cheating suspensions, PED suspensions.......what an embarrassing mess the pats have become.

Do you think Goodell will suspend Brady any additional time for playing the preseason games without the NFL logo on his helmet? Lol.

He actually could if he really wanted too because that is against league rules. If that happened I think Patriots fans would just call it a season. Talk about being crazily upset. I would love to read the comments over at Patriots Planet if that happened. I don't think it will happen though. A fine is likely.
