The Pats are a very tight lipped organization. Yes? They don't let things 'leak', including health of players.
They simply don't want the Broncos getting wind of Brady being ill if he actually is.
Seriously, when was the last time you heard of a Patriot being sick? How often does this sort of thing get broadcast?
Especially that it's Tom Brady.
Now add in the Pats track record of 'misinterpreting' the rules and you can see why I came to the conclusion that Tom wasn't ill at all.
Dont really want to comment on such a stupid thread but as a Steelers fan you should remember the 2004 AFCCG. It was well reported Brady had a 103 degree temp and was taking fluids back at hotel room. During Tom Bradys press conference after this last Indy game he was asked if he was sick since he sounded horrible and he said he was. But somehow it's all a ploy??? lol
