Tom Brady out for the season....Unconfirmed
Edited on Sun Sep-07-08 07:41 PM by bicentennial_baby
On EDIT: Only reported on Yahoo, no confirmation yet.

:cry:

New England Patriots quarterback Tom Brady is expected to miss the rest of the 2008 season with a torn anterior cruciate ligament in his left knee, according to a source familiar with the injury.

While New England coach Bill Belichick said in his postgame press conference that he had no update on the status of Brady’s injury, two sources indicated it involved serious damage to the knee.

“It’s bad,” a team source said. “We’re going to have to play without him.”

Brady was hurt as he stepped up in the pocket to make a throw to wideout Randy Moss. Chiefs safety Bernard Pollard, who was on the ground, lunged forward and struck Brady’s leg, which buckled as he released the ball.

Edit: I don't know what's wrong with the link, the story is from Yahoo Sports.

This SUCKS. x(

2. Yeah, uh...sorry about that...
I'm a long time Chiefs fan. My wife is a Brady fan. She actually got pissed at me when it happened. :D Pollard obviously didn't try to take Brady out though. Anyone who watched the play could see that.

3. I haven't seen that diagnosis confirmed though...
Neither nfl.com or espn.com have him out for the season. THey still say his status is uncertain.

6. Not confirmed
The reports about Brady being out for the year are coming out of the Jets organization, via Belichick-hating reporter Ron Borges.

I'll wait for the team to say something official.
