If it turns out that Tom Brady misses the game on Sunday, how much is the Jimmy Garoppolo trade amplified if any of what ESPN reported about the situation was true?
Only to the media. He could literally fly in from Cabo on Sunday morning, and he would still play.
Is his hand sore? Probably. Will he take more snaps from shotgun? Probably. It might affect his play especially with the Jags collapsing the pocket, but he'll still make his throws.
Brady is actually injured? I thought this was just the Pats playing their games.
BB may have implemented the greatest mind fuck in playoff history. He is claiming an injury to a small, concealable body part that can potentially have a massive impact on performance (not easy throwing a football when you can't grip it effectively). Tell the world Tom's thumb is injured, throw a glove on it, and keep him on the sideline. It's not like he really needs to take any more practice snaps this year.
Is Brady hurt? Are the Pats lying? Who the hell knows. Does this impact the Jaguars psychologically? Will it create that small bit of doubt in the back of their minds that may just get them to relax just a little bit?
TB12 is code for HGH or some other banned substance that he and his trainer have discovered how to 'administer' with out the league being able to detect it. They are going to the superbowl. Belichick has camera's in the visitors locker room, bugs in their headsets and some kind of mild sleeping gas in their locker room ventilation system....

You're assuming there's an actual injury and this isn't just some charade from BB/Brady. Those 2 lost the benefit of the doubt long ago!

No I don't believe in bigfoot or aliens...much.
He's been at practice. See if he throws the ball. He hasn't thrown a pass since Tuesday. I don't even know if he's taken any hand-offs since then.
