Tom Brady ran just I think a 5.2 40 at the combine, and just kind of spit the ball around a little bit. All of a sudden, he's what we're looking for.

A poorly conditioned football team gets penalties, a poorly conditioned football team holds, a poorly conditioned football team turns the football over.

You need to have stamina ... you need to have some staying power in the fourth quarter to win football games and if you're not I think you're going to lose.
