FOXBOROUGH, Mass. -- New England Patriots quarterback Tom Brady was upbeat during his weekly appearance on sports radio WEEI's "Kirk & Callahan" program Monday morning, which seemed to be a result of the team securing its best win of the season despite not having its best performance.
Here are 12 things we learned from No. 12 in the longer-than-the-norm 23-minute conversation:
1. Injured knee in a better place this week: "It’s better than last Monday, so I’m very happy about that ... Hopefully I’ll be feeling a lot better than yesterday come Sunday," Brady said, which highlighted how he was more banged up than many realized at this point last week.
