Tom Brady GU Jersey - NFL Auctions
Up for auction at the NFL Auctions website is a Tom Brady Patriots Game Used Jersey (Pre-Season) vs. the New Orleans Saints on 08/12/10….
I tried to “photo match” the jersey and could not…I looked at photos from warm ups, game action and while Brady was on the sidelines in the second half…
The jersey being worn by Brady shows the NFL Equipment Shield on the neck collar above the front chest seem, while the jersey being auctioned off by NFL Auctions shows the NFL Equipment Shield going into the front chest seem...

Re: Tom Brady GU Jersey - NFL Auctions
I wouldn't get too hung up on that. A lot of perception changes with a jersey that is on over shoulder pads versus when it is just laying on a flat surface. It looks like the shield might just be draped over the seam in the picture of the jersey. I'm not saying that I know it's the same jersey, I'm just saying you can't really judge by that type of stuff when the jersey goes from the player to just laying.

Re: Tom Brady GU Jersey - NFL Auctions
Dan,
I have to respectfully disagree, yes, some things will change when a jersey is being worn by a player vs. it just laying flat, but not where something is stitched on a jersey...I have seen Pats jerseys manufactured both ways with NFL Shield above and into the seem running across the chest... If I was going to shell out $8k (where the auction is at now) and it comes from the NFL, I wouldn't want to have any doubts and a DEFINITIVE photo match...

Re: Tom Brady GU Jersey - NFL Auctions
I have to agree with BeanTown 100% on the Brady. Photos are not always as they appear in real life, but in my opinion, they are not even close. If these are the photos from the game in question, they do not match.
Unfortunately, the high bidder is the same one that runs up Pats Jerseys and does not pay.....I'm sure that we will see the Jersey again.

Re: Tom Brady GU Jersey - NFL Auctions
Not only is there the problem with the NFL Equipment Shield, but the posted photos clearly show that the Patriots logo of the Patriots Patch is going into the front chest seem, whereas on the jersey being auctioned it is clearly below the front chest seem. Really Odd, Indeed...

Re: Tom Brady GU Jersey - NFL Auctions
It does look a lot more like the one he wore against the Rams on 8/26:

Re: Tom Brady GU Jersey - NFL Auctions
I meant to say, it doesn't look like the one he wore that week, either. I was thinking maybe they just goofed in saying which game it was from. But the one from that game looks the same as the one from the other game.
