The Facts:
Brady is ready to play in the New England Patriots' opener but stopped short Monday of saying he would. "If it's up to me, there's no question" Brady said. "I've been getting progressively better over the past couple of weeks. I'm excited. I'm excited to start the year."

Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
Brady stretched and did agility drills with his teammates during the first 15 minutes of Monday's practice to which the media were admitted. Brady, who has a right foot injury, didn't play in any of four exhibition games although he said he could have. New England lost all four exhibition games. The Patriots start the regular season Sunday at home against the Kansas City Chiefs and there have been rumors he won't be ready to go. Brady has started New England's last 127 games, the third longest streak in NFL history for quarterbacks. Only Brett Favre and Peyton Manning have longer streaks.
