Michael Silver of Yahoo! Sports reports that Patriots quarterback Tom Brady is expected to miss the rest of the 2008 season with a severe knee injury.

The injury is widely believed to be a torn ACL. Silver says that there could be other ligament and cartilage damage.

“It’s bad,” a team source told Silver. “We’re going to have to play without him.”

The starter will be Matt Cassel. Unless the Pats bring back Vinny Testaverde. Or Doug Flutie. Or Steve Grogan.

UPDATE: Silver’s report has been updated — the ACL tear is confirmed

Sparano is my type of coach

Here is good video of Sparano wired up, barking at the troops. What a departure from last year. No more good work or growing. Just good old fashioned football like the way it used to be played. Don't you all just get the feeling that we have a chance in every game we play. I don't expect miracles, but I have hope we are going to be in games this year in the 4th quarter.
