Tom Brady Badly Injured in Season Opener

Tom Brady was just helped off the field by two Patriots personnel members after injuring his left knee. Paging Nurse Bundchen!

Kansas City Chiefs safety Bernard Pollard laid Tom out during the first quarter of their first regular season game -- and Brady is currently getting x-rays on his left knee. Brady's right foot was the injury that kept him out of all of their preseason games.

Backup quarterback Matt Cassel has taken his place on the field -- no word on whether Matt's dating Gisele yet.

As you can see in the photo -- legs aren't supposed to bend that way.

UPDATE: Even without their golden boy -- the Patriots won 17-10.

UPDATE 2: WEEI in Boston is reporting Brady suffered a torn ACL. If that's true, his season would be over.

31. Class act does not define a guy seen all over making out with a new girlfriend when some one else is carrying his child.

34. So you must be Tom Brady's best friend and Bridgette's best friend and you know both sides of the story. Didn't think so!

36. The comment "Kansas City Chiefs safety Bernard Pollard laid Tom out" should read that Pollard slid into Brady on the ground as anyone who was watching the game know....no tackle involved here. Also, unless you last name is Moynahan or Brady then you do not know what went down between them to cause the split so making comments that he left her because she was pregnant is ignorant. If you do not get along staying together because of a pregnancy is the worst thing.

Good luck Tom and I look forward to many more games of seeing you AND Matt.

39. Guess it's Gisele's turn to run errands for Tom now. Yeah like that will ever happen.

Posted at 5:02PM on Sep 7th 2008 by whatever will she do?

40. I'm glad Tom got hurt cause he was a pretty boy piece of sh!t quartback who will take a fall instead of trying to get the first down. But Gisele if you need a real man let me know

41. Most these comments are from total losers. Lets see, he is rich, gets laid when he wants. works 6 months a year playing a sport you cowards would never play. I dont care for New England or Tom Brady, but Im man enough to admit the guy is a great football player, and he is 100 % American and white.

44. Hey Molly.. why don't you just grow up! You made yourself look like a complete moran! If you take excitement out of seeing someone hurt you are sad!!! Tom is a hell of a player and yes, he's made a few mistakes in his life but it's none of our business! I pray that karma comes and gives you exactly what you have given me and I am sure others in your life tenfold. I'll be there standing laughing on the sidelines

45. I think we should give Pollard a parade or a Medal or something. He has potential done a great service to not only the players of the NFL, but to all of us who wish to see Tom Brady put in a bus and driven over a cliff.

Legs aren't supposed to bend that way, and teams aren't supposed to spy on their opponents, but things happen. I don't know what made me happier, the fact that the team I root for won today, or the fact that during half time I got to watch Brady get laid out. Let's hope with his right ankle and left knee he is not only out for the season, but maybe his career will be over.

And as for Randy Moss whinging like a child about how it was a dirty play, I'd like to point out that Moss in an idiot and therefore his opinion is generally meaningless. However, I think it's pretty clear that they were playing a contact sport, and sometimes wonderful miracles like this happen. I have to watch some replays, but I think it was a combination of Pollard and some Patriots that caused the collision.

Peace out Tom Brady, hopefully until next September at least.
