GLENDALE, AZ - FEBRUARY 03: Quarterback Tom Brady #12 of the New England Patriots is hit as he throws by defensive tackle Barry Cofield #96 and Osi Umenyiora #72 of the New York Giants in the first half during Super Bowl XLII on February 3, 2008 at the University of Phoenix Stadium in Glendale, Arizona.

Everyone who surrounds themselves with the NFL news cycle on a daily basis have reacted differently to the court's ruling that Tom Brady's four-game suspension should be overturned. Former New York Giants defensive end Osi Umenyiora believes that the NFL may have simply hired the wrong team to take down Brady.
He suggested another crew instead, via his Instagram account:
Umenyiora is referring to the Giants' three-man combination at defense end during the 2007-2008 NFL season. The Giants met up with Brady in Super Bowl XLII, and at the time, the Patriots were 18-0 in the standings. Thanks to Umenyiora, Justin Tuck and Michael Strahan, the Giants held one of the most prolific offenses in NFL history to just 14 points. Umenyiora is joined by Tuck and Strahan in the photo.
