I hope it's not either.

This might be the year he stays healthy. I know its wishful thinking but you never know.

As long as we have someone besides Thomas and Kamara for Drew to get the ball to then we won't be so one dimensional and he'll have more options besides throwing it away.

Everyone says Brady is still playing at a high level......well, so is Drew. He's had a severe shoulder injury and that needs to be factored in, but my gut says he could manage the game two years after his arm strength declines because he is so cerebral.
