Re: Sports: NFL
It happens very slowly and then all at once. Peyton Manning was the best QB in the league at age 38 in 2014 until he got a seemingly minor leg injury, but he never really recovered and was a shadow of himself for the next season and a half.

Brady has now had three mediocre games in a row. It's entirely possible we'll look back in a few years and mark the shoulder injury he had against the Browns as that innocuous moment where he was never the same again. Probably not, but entirely possible. The dude is 42, and speaking as a fellow 42 year-old, you can't count on bouncing back from an injury.
