We're only going to score 17 points? OK. Is Plax playing defense?
-- Tom Brady, January 2008, laughing at Plaxico Burress' prediction of a 23-17 New York Giants victory over the Patriots in Super Bowl XLII.
Since laughing at Plaxico Burress, Tom Brady has played three full NFL games and won one. He has seen the Giants hold his Patriots to 14 points, three below Burress' prediction, and watched David Tyree make a preposterous catch to set up Burress's game-winner. In last season's opener, he tore up his knee and was lost for the year.
He has had a miserable 21 months (except, you know, for that day when he married a supermodel.)
Worse, last week the Patriots lost the kind of game they always win. It was in New York, where they always win, against the Jets, who never win, and after first-year Jets coach Rex Ryan and safety Kerry Rhodes both mouthed off before the game. Normally when people publicly question the Patriots, they are calling a timeout by the third quarter to say uncle.
