ESPN - Kansas City vs. New England - Recap - September 07, 2008 Quote:
FOXBOROUGH, Mass. -- Tom Brady limped off the field under the worried stares of Patriots fans. The thing they feared most finally happened -- losing the NFL's reigning MVP to injury.
And the team they love more than any other plummeted from an exclamation point of an unbeaten 2007 regular season to a huge question mark in 2008 after it held on to beat the Kansas City Chiefs 17-10 Sunday.Brady hurt his left knee when tackled by safety Bernard Pollard midway through the first quarter. He went to the locker room and didn't return. Matt Cassel, who had thrown only 39 passes as Brady's backup the past three seasons, took over.
And he did surprisingly well, completing 13 of 18 passes for 152 yards and one touchdown after failing to lead the Patriots to a touchdown in 17 possessions during four exhibition games.
| If it is serious New England's season is over. I hope it's only minor I really do.

He's out for the year.
I think the Patriots are suffering from bad karma.

Maybe he can fill in for the team at the position of video photographer while he's out.

I would be shocked to see an ACL injury, as his leg went sideways and not back. Although it is possible, i doubt it. PCL/MCL injuries are not nearly as serious.

It's all about da Bears! They handed Peyton Manning his ass on a silver platter today. They're a different animal this year, totally unexpected. | |

Is it wrong to be happy about this? 
Being a die-hard Eagles fan, I can relate. As much as I love McNabb, he's as fragile as china.
