    I have been a supporter of Brady in the midst of all his criticisms over the recent years for whatever. He might be in the top five of all QB's I've seen play. However, a couple of things in that game stood out to me, most notably the slide kick. It might have been instinctive, a defense mechanism but it should not have happened. He's a football player and expects to get tackled and hit. That was a chump move. I half expected him to get up and start a slap fight. With his legs spread out like you can actually see, if you slow down the video, his tampon string hanging out. Then, a bit later he had fourth and eight I think and had daylight to run for the first down. Instead of getting some sort of retaliation for the kick he threw the ball away. On fourth down he gave up.

    Those two plays are minimal considering his body of work, but go a long way to explaining nationwide hate for the guy. No football fan or player or analyst can excuse those.
    I still like him, I still think he and Manning are the best QB's of the last 15 years, but that was a small snapshot of his perception to a lot of football fans. You can't discount his accomplishments, but you can't excuse his obvious flaws.
    Well said. I agree. It was like Shannon Sharpe said, they make it easy for people to root against them.
