The Pats signed Vinny Testaverde... does anyone know if Tom's hurting? He took some tough hits and falls on the mud last week, and maybe we're getting him as a security blanket.

I was watching one of the postgame shows after the game on Sunday and they were saying how Brady might be hurting because his accuracy has decreased and his throws arent as tight and dont have as much zip as they usually do. So maybe we will be seeing Vinny this season.

no, hes not hurt. they signed testaverde as an emergency qb behind cassel. i saw it on sportsdesk. nothing to be afraid of.

Yeah, that's what they said on ESPN... but why now? Tom's been throwing low and just seems off. Maybe it's just me but I'm sure there's more of a reason than that.

I'm not so sure Tom's telling the whole truth. Everyone in the media is speculating that there is some type of minor injury, and if it worsens then Vinny's number will be called. I'm not saying I believe it, I'm just saying that's what the experts say.

Yeah, we won't really know whether Tom's hurt or not until he stops playing, basically. Belichick obv likes keeping all this stuff quiet cuz he's super sneaky like that, and like Delp said, Tom'd never say he was injured if he either a) was injured enough to be sucky but not yet injured enough to not play or b) the media and stuff wasn't supposed to find out yet.

How do you know that? We could have gotten him because we just don't trust Cassel if Tom isn't ready to go.

Bill has never told the truth in his life. You have to think about it instead of actually just believing SportsDesk. I'm just saying we have to be concerned about Tom.

im not concerned with him. if he was hurt he wouldnt be playing so until he stops i dont have any reason to be concerned. and if h estruggles it doesnt automatically mean hes hurt. i think they need to give the ball to maroeny and dillon more to take some pressure of him.

I agree that we need to run some more, but you aren't concerned? He seems to be throwing low, and just flat out off. Maybe he is just on a bad stretch, but Tom just doesn't seem like himself.

not concerned at all. hes our leader, and if h ewas hurt then hed sit, bill woul dsit him. they wouldnt play him if he had a playable injury. last game u can blame some of the accuracy on the weather. hell do fine.

Well, I think that his leadership might be taking him over. He might be trying too hard, so he's playing hurt because he feels he has to. I'm just speculating.
