There is only one team Tom Brady hasn’t thrown more touchdowns than interceptions against. Can you take a guess? Ok, that was easy, right? In Brady’s 7 games against the Ravens (postseason included), he has thrown 7 touchdowns and 8 interceptions (he still leads his team to victory though, going 5-2, which in the end is all that matters). His completion percentage of 58.4 is also lower against the Ravens than compared to his career percentage of 63.7. Something very un-Brady like, indeed. On the flip side we have Joe Flacco, an above average quarterback who plays some of his best football against the Patriots. Flacco has outperformed Brady in the past two match ups between these teams, and we all know how the Ravens were a Lee Evans catch away from the Super Bowl and a Billy Cundiff chip shot away from overtime in the AFC Championship game last year. To all those who say “but the Patriots defense is so much worse than the Ravens! Give Brady some credit,” I say it doesn’t matter. Whe...

Ravens have creative way to stop Brady

Via Fox Sports  |  January 18, 2013
There's no set way for defenses to stop Tom Brady. If there were then former Patriots and current Ravens defensive coordinator Dean Pees would have found it by now. Then again, he could always get someone else to do his dirty work. Pees, who coached the Patriots for six seasons from 2004 to 2009, answered questions about Brady and the Patriots on Thursday ahead of Sunday'...

Via Patriots Life  |  January 21, 2013
With the Ravens hanging on to an 8 point lead the very first play of the 4th quarter was one of the key plays in the game. At these times in the game is when Tom Brady makes his living being known as one of the most clutch QB’s of all time, but instead on this drive was cut short. The Patriots decide to run the ball with Ridley, who rips off 8 yards, but gets hit helmet-to-helmet...

Sunday night’s AFC Championship Game was bad enough.

On Tom Brady’s three-yard run that ended on a feet-first slide, many fans were confused about the veteran’s erratic management of the game clock.
