I'm sure when the National Football League fans witnessed Tom Brady go down due to a serious knee injury during the first game of the 2008 season there was a serious gasp for air.
Then prior to the season, critics asked if he could return to his NFL Hall of Fame bound form. He came out with an average start as any pro returning from a year long injury would. Producing less than stellar statistics, and more importantly losses. But then, on Sunday October 18, 2009 he showed us the pre-injury Tom Brady. The one that throws touchdowns to any player on the New England Patriots offensive roster at any given time.
He proved that to the point of breaking one NFL record, and matching a record that was set when the NFL merged with the AFL. Tom Brady threw 5 touchdowns in the second quarter of the 59-0 pounding of the Tennessee Titans. He then matched the Patriots record for throwing touchdowns in a single game by tossing 6 touchdowns; which matched his 2007 MVP season record.
The more impressive part was that Tom made the rest of his team look legendary. Especially Randy Moss who has been struggling recently. He threw three touchdown passes to Moss who has been held to just one touchdown this season. That's what made Brady an MVP quarterback in the league only two seasons ago.
And that's why Tom Brady should be an MVP again in 2009.
