Brady's light years better than Grogan. How many times do you see Brady look at the entire field before deciding to throw? Sometimes he hits his third option. Grogan wasn't capable of that, and Brady has lazer accuracy when he's on top of his game. Very underrated deep ball, too.

How'd Bernie Kosar do under BB?
Over the last couple of years I've enjoyed watching Brady scanning the Defense. You can almost hear him think. When he's done on the field, he's going to be an unholy coach. I can't think of any other athlete who has impressed me as much as Tom B has.

He that would make his own liberty secure, must guard even his enemy from oppression; for if he violates this duty, he establishes a precedent that will reach to himself.
