Tom Brady is Not a Happy Camper--and With Good Reason

If New England Patriots quarterback Tom Brady had been hit with some gamma radiation prior to Thursday night's game with the Jets he probably would have turned into the Hulk during the game. The veteran QB was visibly upset at several points during the game, and with due reason--his team was playing like crap.

Can you just imagine it? (read this in your best Hulk voice) Brady Smash!!!

If you look at the stats it appears as if the Patriots have one of the many pedestrian QBs that populate the NFL under center, but as anyone that has watched football over the last decade knows that is not the case at all. However, now that he is without any quality weapons on his side of the ball he kind of looks that way.

Against the Jets he was just 19-39 for 185 yards. Of those 19, most of them were caught by Wes Welk--I mean Julian Edelman, but unlike the guy that uses to be Brady's go-to receiver he didn't do anything with the ball after the catch. With 13 receptions Edelman only had 78 yards.

The young 'talent' simply isn't stepping up to the plate. Aaron Dobson was targeted 10 times Thursday night but caught only three. Brady looked Kenbrell Thompkins way seven times, but he only caught two.

Tack on the  absence of a running game and Brady might be looking at the first ho-hum season of his career if the evil genius, Bill Belichick, doesn't come up with something.

I hear Brandon Lloyd is looking for a job...
