I think it's been overplayed and the marker overreacted. Brady doesn't need to throw a deep ball to beat the Jags team. The blueprint has been posted by Warren Sharp and I shared the link. Pats will dink and duck this Jags D into submission
TCG.. are you really betting on that??? Tom Coughlin...!! He hasn't coached since 2015 and his last 5 years in the league he was 37-43... I know he beat the Pats twice, but to base a lot of stock in that, is reaching a bit buddy...I just respectfully disagree...And Tom Coughlin has the blue print to best the Pats in not only 1 SB, but 2.........& he will use it again to help the Jags, now whether they win SU, I hope so, but I gladly took +9.
As for Brady's injury, Hoyer took all the reps Thursday, & anyone that knows Brady, knows he's OCD when it comes to preparing for a game, & takes every snap.
I don't know how bad his injury is, but I don't think the Pats are playing mind games.

Ha!! bingo!!Lol, no, but it helps to have Coughlin on your side......Jags have the top defense in the league, Brady is not gonna throw around like he did with Titans. Jags defense is why I'm Betti g on them, & Coughlin is a nice bonus. Bortles is also mobile, something Pats are terrible with.......obviously we both have our own angles on what each team will do or how they can win cuz we're on opposite sides.

No ligaments damage... 4 stitches on throwing hand
As of now, Brady is listed as questionable.
Most medical personnel indicates it should not affect Brady's throws... but market fluctuate based on perception.
No, but Mike Felger (who covered the Pat's for the Herald for many years back in early 2000s and is now a radio host on the #1 drive-time show in Boston) said the report is "4 stiches, no ligament damage, should be fine." One source, he said. But Felger hasn't broken news since his newspaper days. I doubt he is wrong about this.
All that said, the probable conclusion is probably "Brady will play but how much will his hand effect him." And really not even he knows that answer. But he did practice today and reports are he did well. He wore two gloves to the press conferece and refused to say anything. He was either trolling or hiding something on his hand.
I think the line movement is right. The Pat's were big favorites. After this news, that are big favorites, but less big, because there is added liabilty with Brady. I see it as a possible opportunity. Pat's - 7 was available for a bit. If in fact Felger is right. That is a decent line for the Pat's who are dominant at home and who don't give up a lot of points anyway.
Agree, classic over reaction... looking at the # of bets at SI, 38k bets on the jax/pats game... only 25k bets on the minny/phiili game..
they are running to the window to hit the jags...on the "news"
I’m pretty sure Felger is good friends with Jonathan Kraft.No, but Mike Felger (who covered the Pat's for the Herald for many years back in early 2000s and is now a radio host on the #1 drive-time show in Boston) said the report is "4 stiches, no ligament damage, should be fine."
