Tom Brady Injury Will Make Roster Update Obsolete
by 
In an ironic turn of events the injury that appears to have ended Tom Brady’s season will also put a big hole in the delayed roster update for Madden 09 that has been heavily discussed over the weekend. The relief that will come when the update finally does arrive will only be followed by the anticipation of the next one given the dramatic ramifications of the injury. The update will already be severely out of date.
While it was absent some recent transactions (along with not including Chad Johnson’s name change to Ocho Cinco) this injury will impact online play to an extent only imagined by a handful of players in the league.
So that just brings back the importance of finding a better roster updating solution. If this was one of the NBA games than Tom Brady may have been dropped down the depth chart or placed on the IR as early as tomorrow. While the Patriots will still have a strong team with Randy Moss at WR their appeal certainly will be greatly diminished to the online crowd.

if you really think the bills cant make the superbowl (which i honestly do think its going to have to take alot for them to make it) then you also have to be realistic and know that the jets have no chance either

ok well while im doing that ima watch that clip where eli broke the entire defensive lines tackles and managed to throw it to tryee who made that spectacular catch… then on the same drive found buress in the endzone.

[quote comment="35510"][quote comment="35506"][quote comment="35500"][quote comment="35498"]Ima have to agree with sdot on this one… yes rex has better numbers and collins could have better numbers in the games he plays ,but when the titans are down by 6 in the 4th quarter with those bum ass recievers and need to get a winning drive Vince Young has that “win” factor that both of them, along with alot of QB’s in the league dont possess. Its not all about numbers and i hate to bring this up because im a bills fan but romo turned the ball over 6 times!!! on that monday night game and they still pulled out a win (because of that dumb ass O coordinator the bills had thats now gone
!)…. its not all about the numbers its about finding a way to win[/quote]
Yeah Brady numbers last year we will throw that out and put Vince Young in.[/quote]
wow congrats you found the one exception… ohh tell that to eli manning (whos numbers through out the season were childs play compared to brady) while hes shining his superbowl win[/quote]
Tell Eli to thank his “Defence” ahem who intercepted brett farve in overtime ahem who held Patriots to 14 points when they averaged 40 for the season oh yeah that was all Eli…[/quote]
i dont think you get what ime saying… im saying that when the games on the line stats dont count worth shit, youre telling me if you needed a game winning drive youd take rex or collins over VY???

Ok to save us both some time debating just answer… would you take rex or collins over VY if you needed a game winning drive in the playoffs?

All 3 suck.. Rex is just Rex. Collins is old. VY would waste too much time running or throwing at the ground. So we would lose regardless..

sdot…. why do you and other people keep saying that Vince took the Titans to the playoffs last year. He was hampered by a quad injury, and couldn’t run very good. He held the Titans back last year, the defense and the running game got us to the playoffs.
James… I would much rather have Vince Young as my QB, no matter what the situation, he just needs to grow up and learn to have a short memory after he makes a mistake.

Good point here… Everyone thinks he leads the Titans but he doesnt they see VY and think of the college days. He needs to grow up and become an NFL QB something not even Vick did but Mcnabb Mastered.

It seems like now he’s too busy trying to improve his own brand, instead of fighting for the team.
Yesterday, he was on the bench and Lendale White scored a TD to put them ahead, and Vince still had his head down and didn’t even clap. I mean, come one, he was more upset that he looked bad than happy that his team won the game.

i completely agree with that… this all got started when someone said compared rex and collins to him… vince young is a playmaking QB and COULD be great if he grows up and starts acting like a pro football player… but even the current VY i would take over collins and rex

To all of you senseless idiots glad to see another human being require major reconstructive surgery, just think how it would feel if you were going under the knife and people were throwing parties because of it. Find some compassion, and even if you’re not a Patriots fan, show some respect for another human being. I may wish Peyton Manning throws 5 picks a game, but I never want to see him have any serious injuries.

why isnt tom on the sidelines even if he is on crutchers cheering them on
