Got into this a little bit in my B/R column this morning, handing out grades to each position. I gave Brady an A-. Has he missed some throws? Sure. But I think that’s more an effect of the new receivers than it is Brady slowing down. In crunch time, Brady has come through like he usually does. We can’t expect him to look like he looked 2010-2012. He can get back to that point, but it’s all part of the process at this point.
Let’s see how he looks in the Broncos/Texans/Browns/Phins/Ravens stretch of the schedule. That’s when we’ll get a real sense of where Brady is at and what the trajectory of the offense is. Until Gronk and Amendola are back (and eventually Vereen) it’s tough to be too hard on Brady.
I still think he’s got it and will have it for at least two more seasons.
