Tom Brady is one of the best QBs of all time and that can't be debated. I hate to admit that, but its obvious.
Brady may be a dink and dunk passer now but like an above poster said if you can't respect taking what the defense gives you, then you should be playing Madden and not watching the NFL. The NFL is a game of inches and if teams are daring you to throw short then it takes a good, smart player to not force the ball. Brady and the Patriots offense has enough confidence in their 3rd and short game. The Patriots are hands down one the of the best 3rd down offenses with all those 5 yard ins and out they always run.
Also, you must not have watched Brady much in his career if you always think he was a dump off QB. Defenses MAKE him throw short because if they played normal he would torch them over the top. Go look how many DEEP TD passes he threw to Moss and Brown. As a Dolphins fan, there was/is nothing worse than that second watching Brady drop back and launch a deep pass before it pans to camera 2 in the secondary. From my experience there is an above average the play will be made. So your only chance vs him is to take away deep passes and force him to go underneath. Well he proved he can dink his way to a SB so there is basically no way to beat him.
I'm sure you will disagree and find faults in the things I say but pointing out your one bad stat and thinking that gives you a valid point is laughable. 0-19 or whatever you say on long passes. Well he has 13 TDs 4 ints in 6 superbowls and the most passes ever completed in a SB (37). You just hate Brady and can't admit how good he is. Or you have a close friend who Loves Brady which in turn forces you to be nothing but negative towards him. The only reason I don't hate Brady as much anymore is because its almost over. Once its over I can't wait for the Pats to be average for the next 10 years.
Also, Tom Brady's 82 yard TD pass to Troy Brown on the first play of overtime to basically end the Dolphins season in 2003 was one of the worst plays of my life. That certainly wasn't a dunk off
