This is how the QB's before Tom Brady and the tuck rule...and the don't hit them low rule and don't hit them in the head rule all existed.
Yes, stupid, very stupid. The quarterbacks today take as many hard shots as the qb's did back then. They dont take them to the head, but
Tom Brady is soft. Every single time he is touched, he lays on the ground and looks to the refs for a flag. He can get sacked, ball in hand, and still wants a flag for being touched.
oh please.
As for this "bigger, stronger, faster" statement. Ummm...news flash. So are the WRs and the Offensive linemen and...oh...so are the QBs themselves. It's not like only the defensive players have magically been getting bigger...all the NFL players are, so that argument is invalid. The guys hitting Montana, or Bradshaw or Unitas were bigger than them, same way the guys hitting modern QBs are bigger than them.
The scale is the same.
Force = mass x velocity. Its a scientific fact. Look it up. The scale isn't the same because the hitters are the ones applying the force, but then again i dont expect you to understand.... its that "stupid" thing
Doesn't measure up to the speed....yes...on both sides...so, once again advantage modern QBs who have faster targets, who can jump higher, and are not allowed to be touched. The actually enforce those rules now, unlike the old days when the game was built on defense.
Tell that to any wr/te/rb who has caught a pass over the middle... again, you are full of crap
Prior to this Manning/Brady era, teams won Championships based on defense, and now the rules are slanted so that teams win based off of high powered offense. That doesn't mean the QBs are better, it point blank means the rules now favor the offense.
The game changes, the rules change, you cannot lay that on Brady. He plays within the framework of the game.
Read any article written about the game by anyone who has basic knowledge of the game and the say "Today's game completely favors the offense."
To say Brady is the G.O.A.T. is like saying Barry Bonds is truly the HR king. The game changes, and favors offense.
No QB likes getting hit?? Really? While most don't like getting hit late, guys like Ben, and Rodgers and Cam Newton and Russel Wilson all seem to really thrive against the blitz, even Andy Dalton does better against the blitz. Brady is a system QB. The way that system is run, Mark Sanchez could win a Super Bowl.
Dumbass wonk, teams rarely blitz Brady because he burns them when they do. Just another point indicating you don't know wtf you are talking about when it comes to Brady.
Like I said, I'm not saying Brady isn't talented, you don't become a starting NFL QB without talent, but take away his coach and that system and he doesn't have a ring and he is a middle of the pack QB.
Cream rises. Brady is driven to compete and win. You have spent way too long following a team who thinks achieving "average" is what the game is about. Brady/Belichick are the rare paring of a coach and quarter back that we see only once in a great while. Right now they are the best. Brady the GOAT qb, Belichick, the GOAT coach.
