WEEI: Brady has torn ACL - Giselled!!!!!

WEEI’s Ron Borges is reporting that Patriots quarterback Tom Brady suffered a torn ACL today, citing an NFL source close to the situation. If true, Brady is likely done for the season.

Giselled!!!!

I wonder if Giselle will ditch him now that he's damaged. That woman is bad luck for her men
Maybe Brig will take him back

This is not a good injury for a QB.....at least it was his front leg and not the leg he throws from! He is gonna be down for quite awhile! Can you say Vinny Testarverde?

As a fan of the game, I hope this isn't true. Brady is a tough guy, he'll be back out there if it is possible.

We might not be that bad, Cassell looked okay, and with that offensive line and such talented receivers were still gonna be a tough team, and once the kid gets a few more games under his belt I think he'll get a lot better, remember, Brady was a nobody before he got his shot, and if for some reason Cassell can't handle it, there's only one name I can think of, Drew Bledsoe, you heard it hear first!!!

And if you believe that, I'll tell you that YOUR cheering helps them win

not a pats fan, but never ever want to see anyone go down. Had to watch McNabb go down a few times. Always sucks@

I'm not willing to give up on Cassel (yet). Only time will tell though. For what its worth he might be the best back-up QB ever (behind Palmer and Leinhart at USC and behind Brady in NE). Hoping he has some talent that we didn't see in preseason. For a team that has been QB-driven for the past 8 yrs, the running game looked pretty decent yesterday. I think the secondary is definitely a concern. O'Neal looked pretty good, but Ellis Hobbs is a pretty awful cover man if you ask me. Good return guy though.

I remember a few years ago when Drew Bledsoe got hurt, there were people ready to give up on the Pats. Then some unknown backup took over and did pretty well. Maybe the Pats will catch lightning in a bottle again and Cassell will do o.k. I'm certainly not giving up on the season if Brady's not coming back.

The real test for Cassell will be ateam witha legitamit defense not the Chiefs . I am not a Pat fan but as someone else said I do not want see Brady or any player suffer an injury like that. I was curious to see how they rebounded after their Super Bowl defeat.

What won the Superbowl was the Ravens' defense

Exactly what i was gonna say, as long as Cassell doesn't make too many big mistakes then our offense should be fine, probably won't sweep the regular season, but that didn't get us anywhere last year anyway, I'm more concerned with our porous secondary, they did okay against the Chiefs young starter, but Damon Huard (former Patriot) gave them some trouble and almost tied the game at the end, can't blame them for losing Asante, but they should have signed Gay, not a great player but decent, and at least he knew our system, interested to see how we fare against Favre and the Jets next week, at least we've got a fairly weak schedule this year.
