There are tons of stars in the NFL, Brady is a small part of the NFL puzzle.
NFL sells out all over all the time and always will no matter who plays on teams. NFL football sells period.

the NFL will survive but it is not the same product without him
the SB's that the patriots have been in this decade have provided some of the highest TV ratings in NFL history
look it up

You don't think Brady being out will hurt the NFL? You have to be an idiot to think that.

Hoopy any NFL big game gets nice ratings
NFL is big period no matter who plays
Maybe NBA without Lebron and Kobe would hurt , PGA is about ready to fold without Tiger
Tennis only hanging on because of Williams sisters and Fed/Nadal
Baseball does not matter who plays

He's also the best looking QB in the National Football League, not that it matters.

You telling me there is a significant portion of the population out there that will stop watching NFL games because Tom Brady is injured?

the pats are hated so the better they do the more ppl care and they watch to root against them, i would bet that the super bowls the pats were in got higher ratings than the steelers-seahawks and the colts-bears
someone please find these ratings
i did hear that the pats super bowl appearances this decade finished in the top 10 in overall TV ratings in NFL history, someone please confirm this

It is true and was clearly proven last year, when 90% of the country jumped on the Giants bandwagon, that the Patriots, for whatever reason, are largely hated. I don't think anyone is going to lose sleep tonight in regards to Brady's injury.

I have never seen so many women watching espn like they were during the favre brouhaha .
Favre probably appeals more to the general populace.When was the last time you saw the jets on national tv.

People said the NFL would suffer when Montana retired, the NBA would when Jordan retired. Then came players like Aikman, Shaq, Kobe, and Lebron. There are plenty of good "stars" on the rise in these sports. Always have been and always will be. When one man falls, there are 100 others eager to replace them. Tom Brady is expendable. He is not above the league.
