Of course Brady>Brunell. He's considerably younger and a bit more efficient. No one is arguing the contrary. But its a reasonable comparision because they approach offense fairly similarly.
Aggressive does not always equal better. Aggressive is one thing. Better is something else.

I don't know about that. I watch this guy constantly throw deep over the middle to the TE all the time. I mean all the time. And I've seen them open it up many times. Example. Minnesota on Mon. night. They just went to 4-5 wr sets the whole game. Didn't even bother running the ball that much casue they knew it was going to be tough to run against Minn. So they just said the hell with this. We will just throw it on these guys. I also remember NE doing the same thing to Chi. Just the fact that they would even try that type of game plan w/ below average wr's tell's you the confidence the coaching staff has in Brady. No way could our offense EVER do that, or would we ever even try and do that. W/ our offense we have the "we must run to win" mentality. And that is what I love about the NE coaching staff. They have the "do what it takes to win" mentality.
Brady's INT totals are low because he's a great QB who see's the entire field. He has the ability to come off to his 2nd, 3rd and 4th options. It's not because he isn't aggressive. Not at all.
I'm hoping we see a little more of an open offense this year. It's all going to depend if JC can handle it.
