Tom Brady’s Display Of Toughness Sends Message To Patriots Teammates

Share this: EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. — Jets fans present for the New England Patriots’ 22-17 win over New York probably wish they were among the many who stayed home and left their grey seats empty at MetLife Stadium on Sunday. The Patriots’ win goes down as another notch in Tom Brady’s belt while the Jets remain futureless at quarterback. Sure, young signal-callers Bryce Petty and Christian Hackenberg are on the roster, but if they’re not even good enough to play quarterback over Ryan Fitzpatrick in another lost Jets season, then how are they supposed to give fans hope for tomorrow? Brady, ageless at 39 years old, had himself a day that will be remembered for his 200th win, 60,000th yard and the toughness to throw for

Gio Bernard Injury: Bengals Running Back Tore ACL In Week 11, Per Report

The Cincinnati Bengals lost 16-12 to the Buffalo Bills on Sunday, but that might be the least of their concerns. They lost superstar wide receiver A.J. Green to a hamstring injury that reportedly includes a significant tear, and they also will be without running back Gio Bernard after he tore his ACL, per NFL Media’s Ian Rapoport.

Bernard has rushed for 318 yards and two touchdowns through nine games, but his real impact has come in the passing attack, where he’s tallied 296 yards and ... NESN.com
