:please:

NEW YORK - Tom Terrific is back.

Tom Brady has gone from record-setting MVP to injured superstar to The Associated Press 2009 NFL Comeback Player of the Year.

Brady’s strong return from a left knee injury that sidelined him for all but the first quarter of the 2008 opener earned the Patriots quarterback the award Wednesday. One of football’s biggest stars, Brady has gone from NFL Most Valuable Player in 2007, when he set several passing records, to sidelined to earning his second league award.

Let the ESPN / Brady Bromance continue

[Throne Logic]

Pretty much expected this as soon as Brady went on IR last year.

[trapezeus]

did they just name this now, or did they name this award last year 20 seconds after he got hurt?

Everytime he gets sacked, they add his name to the headline.

Yeah, way to go Tom Brady for leading the Patriots to a worse record this year than Matt Cassel led them to last year. :rolleyes:

Well honestly there isnt really anyone else you could say deserves this award.

[Mike in Syracuse]

Brady should also be named the "Player most likely to have *** on his back".

From rotoworld.com:


Brady's 19 votes edged out a host of quality candidates, including Cadillac Williams (14 votes), Vince Young (7), and Cedric Benson and Brett Favre (4 apiece).

Seems to be a number of decent candidates.
