Tom Brady injured
Patriots quarterback Tom Brady remains down on the turf after Kansas City safety Bernard Pollard rolled into his left leg. He was being looked at by members of the team's medical staff and limped off the field. He was holding his left knee.



AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAaaaaaagh!!
this is our worst nightmare!i knew we needed a veteran backup.sure we dont see these things happening,but even brady is human.was this a cheap shot hit?
Lord no...
Can anyone provide some more details? The fans on the West coast can't see this game.
great line protection. Great game by moss. season is already going into the toilet.
no cheap shot hit
Dear God No!
Don't ell me I paid 300 bucks to watch Cassel?????????????????
The defender dove towards his leg trying to take him down. Not cheap but not allowed.

PLEASE let brady be okay -- soon. why don't we have a better backup?
Morris was holding Pollard to try and keep him down. I wish he just sat on him.
wooooooooooooooooooot wooooot. go chargers.
Give Cassel a chance. Remember, this kind of scenario is how we 'found' Tom Brady.
sadly new england now won't be able to win if he stays down...oh so saad
That is the only way the chargers could possibly win, they are a crap caliber team compared to the Patriots
eric.. you are an idiot!! Why would you ever cheer when a player gets hurt.. nice sportsmanship.
I'm so freakin excited. I can't stand Brady.
eric.. you are an idiot!! Why would you ever cheer when a player gets hurt.. nice sportsmanship.
Brady needs to get back healthy hopefully in a couple of weeks.....we need him for the superbowl.
I have a fantasy trade waiting for payton------- i have brady should i do it?????
hahahaha......my prayers are answered!!! J E T S Jets Jets Jets :) F U boston!
Who cares, it is only a game. Give Cassell a chance. Fred
go Cowboys!!
Patriots suck balls, go GIANTS!!!!!!!!!
Pats will be fine folks. Cassel doesn't have to do anything special he has the best all around.
yes PATRIOTS SUCK, BRONCOS RULE, and yo patriots have a losing record against the broncos, everyone knows that cutler is the man
As a Steeler fan, I hope Brady is OK. The AFC won't be the same, or as competitive, without New England at their best. I love my Steelers, but I also love good football. What good is winning if you cannot ay you beat the best.
screw boston sports i hate them because they are good
go colts!
peyton for president
Gisele wont like this....
Welcome to the NFL, which stands for "Not For Long". Face it, he has an attitude.
He is breakable." Support 81 "
Las Vegas
Ugh... there goes my fantasy league.....
his return is questionable for the rest of the game
chargers are THE WORST team in football history, period.
I just spoke with a friend of mine that is on their medical staff and it isn't good. He torn his ACL and will have to have surgery and they anticipate that he will be out for the season. I'm very saddened by this news, just passing this on.
HAHAHAHAHHA YESSSSSS. SUCK IT NEW ENGLAND.
It's called Karma. The Superbowl loss, and now this. Mom always said cheaters never prosper....
I knew Brett Favre should have held out until this happened. I called this scenario.
Out for the season
Whats the matter Pats fans. You all think you eat coal and crap diamonds, but Belicheat's bad karma may come back to bite you now. Its just a shame it has to happen to a class act like Brady and not a brat like Belicheat. I hate seeing anyone injured, but remember last year running up the score on people and thinking it was funny. What go around come around.
as much as brady cries when gets hit...i bet foxboroughs flooded w/ bady tears after that hit

this is nightmare, matt cassell is not capable of handling the team. if brady's injury is serious the season will be lost. Feel better tom !
Will not matter. Patriots are Champs and will win anyway!
i see the devil is calling some souls due.
Foxboro cries? I am from Ma. and live in indiana. no fans ever cry as much as colt fans. when something doesnt go their way, they act like its not fair. oh precious peyton manning! dont you dare touch him give me a break, I have been a pats fan since jim plunkett was qb look him up and see how far back I go. I have never known pats fans to cry. colt fans are keeping the kleenex companies in business. too bad because most of us pat fans respect manning and the colts, but its these indiana redneck fans who give the colts a bad name
Amen! Praise Jesus! Go Colts!
THAT IS WHAT HAPPENS WHEN YOU ARE A CHEATER. LOL Patriots 18-1. Now they will be lucky to win 4 games.
Somebody get Daunte Culpepper on the phone stat!!
I'M HOPING HE'S FINE BUT WOULD LIKE TO SEE HIM OUT PERMANENTLY THIS SEASON. I LIVE IN BOSTON AND I'M WAYYY OVER THE BRADY-LOVE-FEST. JUST LET HIM REST IN HIS BEACON HILL CONDO AND WE'LL JUST TAKE 2ND PLACE..DON'T MIND IT AT ALL..AND AT LEAST MY TREES ON MARLBOROUGH STREET WON'T BE UPROOTED BECAUSE THE STUPID PAT FANS WON'T HAVE A REASON TO "CELEBRATE!"
I COULD CARE LESS IF HE'S INJURED!
Can anyone say Daunte Culpepper
I never like to see a player get hurt, no matter how I feel about him. With that being said, I feel it's time that the eyes of Brady (and the Patriot's franchise) are opened to the fact that Tom is NOT Superman. He has talent, no doubting that... but he also has a holier than thou attitude to go with it. Personally, I would be happy to see him go away. He will never have the longevity of a Marino or Favre.

Yes I love the Pats and for all of you who speak such ill will on someone who is injured, Brady or not. Its disgusting... Look how happy you all are because you think Brady is done. So you colt, charger, giant, jets people, you are pathetic, you needed Brady to get injured for you to think you have a chance. PATHETIC!!!!
Looks like a medial collatoral ligament tear from the still picture posted. That's 6 weeks at least if it is not fully torn. If its a complete tear, Tom is likely lost for the season. Hate to see it, but the backups have to step up and take control. There will be a few weeks of shock by the team, but hopefully they can rebound and rally around cassell and the rookie. I'm sure they'll sign a 3rd quaterback as well -- perhaps chris simms?
#46 Hahaha Pats....."Amen! Praise Jesus! Go Colts!"
Hasn't He got better things to do?
Come on guys, what's the big deal?
We still won against Philadelphia cheating and did not get caught. I'm sure the tapes that Bellichik has against other teams will come in handy once again.
Cameras are everywhere. The NFL has a lot of whiners.
To trolls from other cities, there might be dirty shots to knees of your QB's in the future. It would be really bad of Favre's or Manning's knees just happened to have a player on the ground roll it to them.
Its great to hear all of you guys crying about the cheap shot. It was a heck of a lot cleaner than the hit where Vince Wolfork dove into Losmans knee.
I hope its has acl and he is out for the year.

Lifelong Bears fan, here, Always held the Colts with Mild Interest, that is, until I moved to Indianapolis for work. I absolutely loathe the Colts now. Number One reason: Abnoxious Bandwagoneer Loudmouth fans. My Brother is a Huge Steelers fan, we went to see the game here when they made their Roadtrip to the Superbowl. My brothers car had the sh*t keyed out of it, in a Park N' Pay lot. Why? A License Plate Holder that said Pittsburgh Steelers.
I will admit the Colts are a good team, but a good portion of their fans are absolutely insufferable.
Sucks about Brady, but I will also admit, I absolutely eff'n hate the Pats. Anywho, hope it's not serious.
Guys, Tom got up and walked off the field, and Cassel finished out the game - and won. If nothing else, this showed that even in the worst of situations the patriots can still win, minus Brady.
I spoke to a couple medical folks that saw the play, and they weren't concerned given that he was able to get up and walk. If the injury was serious he would have been carted off. They agreed, ice and a weeks works of rest, and he'll be fine next week.
hahahahahahahahahaha
i can only say one word after reading all the comments from all the posts. BRONCOS!!! thats right baby mile high is gonna take it this year and probably pull a back to back by winning 2010 superbowl as well. EVEN WHEN THE PATS HAD BRADY we still won. The only other team that might have a chance is the colts and bolts but both of you (fans and team) are really gay so don't count on it. Just be prepared to watch cutler bomb it to marshall deep many times, and be prepared to see another no name running back rush for over 1000 yrds cause that what we do baby. Once again this Brady news doesn't bother me because even if the pats had brady we would still whoop up on them, just wanted to let everyone here know that your team sucks unless u MILE HIGH

He will be back within 2 weeks wearing a knee brace. Peyton is gay. Pats haters are gay too.
Hey Colt Fans...you guys are missing THREE starters on your o-line....you damn well better hope they come up big or you might be screwed too..!!
Brady's Girlfriend is a skank, most of those runway models are, they just happen to be these GIANT COAT-HANGER"S that are perfect for draping clothes all over that still allows the 'important's' to see the action from the back of the room. . .
Pats sucks....GO Colts!!!!!!!!
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!! FUCK THE PATS, U GUYS HAD THIS COMING FOR YEARS, ENJOY SUCKING THIS YEAR!!!
Well i don't normally like to see players injured, but I lived in New England last year during the football season. And you deserve every bit of this. It was ridiculous how many people would call into sports radio (weei i think?) and just brag and brag and brag and gloat about how amazing and godly the pats were. With that awful Boston nasal drip accent. Blech.
You deserve this Boston.
I recommend you find a fire, and die in it. Have fun with a mediocre season, add another year of typical NFL abuse and age to all of your players. lulz
go bills
It's obvious that all of you Colts and Chargers fans love this because you know you didn't have a chance this year unless Tom is hurt. If Patriots can only win when cheating, how come the fans aren't confident that their team can win against them with a healthy Tom Brady? Hate all you want but you know Bill is good regardless.... Enjoy beating each other up trying to make the Super Bowl while the Pats sneak in again...I can't wait until it happens. Even if it doesn't, I will love to throw it in your face next year when the party is over...someone need to put you back in threat mode..no one can do it like the PATS!!!! Hey Charger fans.... that cry baby L.T. will cry for sure when he comes up short for the Super Bowl again.
I'm from New Orleans lived in Dallas for 8yrs and I love the PATS! If the PATS don't get in, GO STEELERS break the hearts of the COLTS like you did a few yrs back!!! HA HA HA HA!!!!!!!!!!!
Emilio i hate you how could you say that go PATS they rule
Broncos suck
Ah well... thats a bummer. GOOD THING THERES ALWAYS TONO ROMO AND THE BEST TEAM IN THE NFL. THATS RIGHT. THE COWBOYS. A-M-E-R-I-C-A-'S TEAM. No *'s attached.
The Pats create competition around the NFL when they're healthy. Isn't that the kind of excitment true football fans want? I'm totally against the Pat's but there's no thrill like beating them when they're at there best. It shows the true quality of your team...like when the Colts beat Brady's Pats to go to the superbowl; There were no excuses. Get well soon Tom. The Monsters of the Midway are waiting for you here in Chicago.
Da Bears!!!
