Tom Brady is back

Ok, everyone is weighing in on Tom Brady and his nice performance. After all, 10 of 15 for 2 TDs and an Int is not bad. I didnt see the game, but have read some write ups and watched SportCenter (as most of us do). Here are some thoughts on his performance and what you might expect from Mr. Bundchen this year.

1) Most quarterbacks that suffer such devastating knee injuries show some jitters or hesitation when they first get under center and feel some pressure. Brady showed neither. An excellent sign from a man coming back from major knee surgery.

2) The offensive line was VERY solid in protections. Brady was seldom under much pressure, allowing him to get a great feel for the speed of the game, very comfortably.

3) Weapons. Plain and simple. Randy Moss, Wes Welker, need I say more?

4) Scheme. Even with Josh McDaniels, his old offensive coordinator, now in Denver, the offensive should be very much like it was two years ago and when Brady and company put up 50 TDs. If he can be even 80% of the quarterback of that year, you end up with 40 TDs and near 4000 yards. That is a big year for any quarterback.

In the final analysis, if you take stock of what Brady did Friday evening, where he plays, the offense around him, and his history, taking Brady as the second, or even first quarterback taken is not a reach.

Bonus statement:Earlier this week, I mentioned Laveranues Coles as a possible value wideout. Chris Henry had a nice game for himself as well. Keep an eye on Henry. Even with his past, he has mad skills.
