Yeah, okay thanks.

So here's the problem...

Tom Brady was saying that IF YOU'RE GOING TO PROTECT OTHER PLAYERS LEGS that you should protect the receivers too. He's not giving a "state of the Union" speech on the NFL... He's not saying what he thinks the overall quality, or physicality, should be. He's just saying that IF YOU'RE GOING TO PROTECT THESE OTHER PLAYERS, protect the guys catching the ball too.

*mic drop*

(the *mic drop* thing was an attempt at humor, and I hope in no way adds or detracts from my reasoning above)

They don't protect RB's with the ball, and they shouldn't with receivers in my opinion. Most of the guys protected are either blocking or are the QB, and they have to protect the most important position.

I still see o-lineman diving at d-linemans legs when the ball is snapped.

Like it or not, if the guy is running with the ball, taking their legs out is one way to make a tackle.

his point was regarding "defenseless" receivers... not guys running with the ball.

I agree that there are too many protected positions, and too many penalties on defensive players making (what used to be) good tackles... that said, yall could at least try to read the fucking text and comprehend what is being discussed before adding your two cents - especially when that two cents is a regurgitation of something already posted 8 fucking times.

Appears both you and Brady missed a dose of Vagisil.

Guys have so much jealousy and hate for Brady that they would call him an idiot if he said the world wasn't flat

How come Brady didn't come up with this Idea Before Gronk got hurt ??????

He didn't say this when Edelman or Amendola got hurt ....

Only when the Pats KEY player got hurt... Edelman & Amendola are replaceable ... you can't replace Gronk

Oh, so you meant when they started 6-1 without him.
I said Brady played shitty without him...many at the time were saying he was starting his decline...

then he caught fire with him in the lineup

ckid asks, CG how old of you

(yes, he asked 'how old of you'?)

CG replies "35"

CG, you are out of your league. CK is 55 and banging broads half your age
