Tom Brady Injury Rumored To Be Torn ACL; Matt Cassel Performs Well In His Absence

New England's Season May Have Ended Just As It Began
9/7/08



I'm not a medical expert by any means, but by initial suspicion when seeing the type of hit Tom Brady took combined with his ability to move his leg yet feel a great amount of instability, leads me to believe he's suffered an ACL tear. According to Pro Football Talk, the New York Jets have been told that Brady did indeed injure his ACL.

It's unlikely we find out what type of injury Brady's left knee suffered, seeing as how Bill Belichick likely won't release any information until he's forced to by the NFL injury policy.

What does this mean for the Patriots? Well for starters it means that Brady would be done for the season and that Matt Cassel takes over the offense.

It was just the Kansas City Chiefs who don't exactly have the league's best defense, but Cassel was efficient this afternoon, completing 13 of 18 passes for 152 yards. Cassel is smart enough to know how to run the offense, throwing a 51-yard touchdown pass to Randy Moss for the Patriots first score of the season and giving New England some confidence after having lost their All-Pro QB.



We'll continue to update you on the status of Tom Brady's injury, but going with the assumption he has a torn ACL, what do you expect of New England this season?

They're still in a horrible division, so who knows.  Beating the Chiefs really only proves that you're the 27th best team in the league, so I wouldn't be basing any expectations off of this game.  I guess we'll find out just how good Maroney really is.
