e. ”―Tagline Brave is a 2012 American 3D CGI computer-animated adventure fantasy film Pixar Animation Studios produced, which was distributed by Walt Disney Pictures. It was written by Mark Andrews, Steve Purcell, Brenda Chapman and Irene Mecchi, and directed by Andrews and Chapman and co-directed by Purcell.

It is Pixar's 13th animated feature film. The film's voice cast features Kelly Macdonald, Julie Walters, Billy Connolly, Emma Thompson, Kevin Mc Kidd, Craig Ferguson and Robbie Coltrane. To make the most complex visuals possible, Pixar completely rewrote their animation system for the first time in 25 years. It is the first film to use the Dolby Atmos sound format. This was the 10th film to not use a sequel or prequel since Up . In the film, set in the Scottish Highlands during the Medieval period, a skilled archer named Merida defies an age-old custom, causing chaos in her kingdom and angering her mother, Elinor. After consulting a witch for help, Merida accidentally curses her mother and is forced to undo the spell herself before it is too late. Brave premiered on June 10, 2012, at the Seattle International Film Festival, and was released in North America on June 22, 2012, to both positive reviews and box office success. Brave received mostly positive reviews, and the film won the Golden Globe Award for Best Animated Feature Film and also won the BAFTA Award for Best Animated Film. The film won the Academy Award for Best Animated Feature Film up against other Disney animated films such as Wreck-It Ralph and Frankenweenie . Preceding the film is a short film entitled La Luna, directed by Enrico Casarosa . It is dedicated to Steve Jobs who passed away on October 5, 2011 . Contents [ show]Plot The movie takes place in the 10th century Scotland. Princess Merida is an incredibly skilled archer living in the Scottish kingdom of Dun Broch with her mother Queen Elinor, and her father King Fergus. On Merida's sixth birthday, King Fergus gives Merida a short bow and arrow as a birthday present. After retrieving an arrow accidentally fired into the woods, where Merida sees some Will o' the Wisps, Merida's family is attacked by an ancient bear, Mor'du. Elinor and Merida flee, while Fergus and his men stay behind to battle the bear. The story cuts to around ten years later when we learn that Fergus lost his left leg during the battle with Mor'du and has vowed to find Mor'du again and avenge his leg. Ten years later, despite Elinor's intention of having sixteen-year-old Merida become a proper, royal, ladylike princess, Merida is determined to seek freedom and live her own life. One day, the Lords Macintosh, Mac Guffin and Dingwall arrive to present their sons for Merida's betrothal. After an argument, all three armies get into a brawl, which Elinor stops. She states that the challenge which the first-born of each clan would compete in would be decided by the fair maiden. Merida, hearing this, believes that the idea of the contestants being first-born is a loophole, so Merida chooses archery. The first two contestants lack skill, and Lord Dingwall's son wins by a fortunate mishap. Merida then steps forward with her bow and claims that she represents her clan as first-born and will be shooting to claim herself. Despite Elinor's objections, she shoots all three bull's-eyes, even splitting Dingwall's son's arrow, supposedly winning the contest. Merida and Elinor have a falling out, with Elinor claiming Merida will still have to choose a suitor. Merida slashes the family tapestry in anger and Elinor throws Merida's bow into the fireplace. Merida runs away on her horse in tears as Elinor quickly retrieves the bow from the fire in regret. Merida again comes across Will O' the Wisps, small blue fairies that are said to lead you to your fate. Merida follows a trail of them to an old hut, where she finds a witch who claims she is nothing but a humble woodcarver because her last customers had some objections to her spells. The witch says she won't help Merida unless she buys a wood carving; in response, Merida buys the lot, trading for a necklace, but says she wants a spell that will change her fate as well. Merida asks for a spell that would change her mother, which she assumes will change her fate. The witch conjures a tart for Merida to give to her mother. On Merida's way out, the witch thinks she forgot to tell Merida something about the spell, but she and her cottage disappear when Merida turns around to ask what the witch was saying. Back in Dun Broch, Fergus is entertaining the lords, while Merida finds Elinor who was worried. After a brief conversation, Merida presents the tart to her mother, who takes a bite and immediately feels sick. Merida takes Elinor up to her room, where she rolls off her bed and Merida discovers that her mother has transformed into a bear. Fergus, downstairs in the hall, smells a bear, and he leads the lords upstairs. Merida and Elinor, with the help of her the young princes Harris, Hubert, and Hamish, manage to escape the castle without Fergus finding them, and she and her mother retreat into the forest back to the witches cottage. The witch isn't present, but there is a cauldron where the witch appears and has left a cryptic message for Merida. She tells Merida that by the second sunrise the spell would be permanent unless Merida can repair a bond. Merida and her mother exit the cottage and find shelter for the night, wondering how they'll be able to fix the curse. In the morning, Elinor has set out a breakfast of some found berries, which turn out to be poisonous, and some dirty water. Merida finds a river and takes the time to teach her mother how to catch fish. The two bond, seeing different sides of each other. While in the forest, Elinor suddenly acts as if she's about to attack Merida, but soon recovers as Merida remarks that her mother is turning into a true bear. They then come across some wisps and are lead to the ruins of an old castle. Merida falls down a pit into an old throne room which she realizes is the palace of the four brothers from Elinor's story. She finds an old stone engraved with the four brothers, but finds a part with a brother had been cut off, as when Merida had cut the tapestry of her own family earlier. She realizes that the curse has happened before and that the brother who'd gone on his own path is now Mor'du. Then Merida is attacked by Mor'du who lives in the ruins, but with the help of her mother she escapes. Merida realizes Elinor will become just like Mor'du, like a real bear, if they don't break the spell. They travel back to Dun Broch to sew the family tapestry back together, thinking that will break the spell. To get Elinor upstairs without being seen, Merida distracts her father and the lords who are fighting and thinking of starting a war on each other. From the back fo the room, unseen, Bear Elinor uses makeshift sign language to help Merida give a speech that brings the kingdoms back together, in which she states that her mother had rewritten the ways of the kingdoms, that both she and the sons could marry whoever they wanted. Everyone rejoices and travels outside, leaving Merida and Elinor to make it up to the tapestry room. While trying to sew the tapestry, Fergus goes into his room and finds Elinor's ripped clothes and broken bed when she'd turned into a bear. Fergus, believing Elinor has been murdered, bursts into the tapestry room to tell Merida the news and finds Merida and Bear Elinor. Elinor assumes the disposition of a bear and fights with Fergus. Merida tries to convince Fergus that the bear is his wife, Elinor, but Fergus says Merida is talking nonsense and locks her in the tapestry room to protect her. Fergus then sets off with the lords to capture Elinor, while Merida is stuck in the tapestry room. Then she finds that her younger brothers have also been turned into bear cubs from taking bites of the tart. Merida asks them to retrieve the key from their nursemaid Maudie, who has the key . The three retrieve the key and free their sister. All four ride on Angus while Merida sews the tapestry. They follow wisps to where Fergus has captured Elinor and tied her up. Fergus attempts to slay the bear, but Merida defends Elinor by fighting off Fergus, who still doesn't believe Merida. Then Mor'du encounters Merida and fights off Fergus and all the other soldiers who attempt to kill him. He then lunges for Merida but is fought off by Elinor who breaks free of the ropes. Mor'du and Elinor duel each other until Elinor smashes Mor'du into a rock, but wounds Elinor in the process. Mor'du gets up and is about to attack Merida when a standing stone falls on top of him and he dies. Merida sees a wisp emerge from Mor'du's body; it apparates as the brother that had become the bear before fading away. Then Merida rushes over to Elinor and puts the sewn tapestry on top of the bear. When the sun rises and Elinor doesn't turn back into human form, Merida throws herself around Elinor and reconciles, apologizing for what she had done and told her mother that she loves her. When the sun rises, Merida finds that Elinor is back in human form, and they both hug. The clans settle their arguments and they go their separate ways. Meanwhile, Merida and Elinor ride out on their horses around Scotland, making their mother-daughter bond even stronger. In the post-credits scene, the witch's crow and magic broom deliver the wood carvings to the castle, asking a stunned guard to sign the delivery note.

Angus The Triplets ( Harris, Hubert, and Hamish )Huge Warrior The Three Brothers The Ancient King Will O' the Wisps (or Wisps for short)Setting It is not clear from the film where in Scotland or when the film is set. The difficulty in assessing the historical setting stems from a number of anachronisms. Bears have likely been extinct in Scotland since the prehistoric era. Whilst the main bears in the film are magical, stuffed bears are also shown. Lord Macintosh is bedecked in Pictish woad paint, which was practiced between the 1st to 3rd centuries CE. Pictish stones are later being hinted as part of the the Ancient Kingdom . Lord Dingwall claims his son fought off an armada of 10,000 Romans. The Romans attacked Scotland, by land, during the 2nd century CE, and had left the area entirely by the 5th century CE. Lord Mac Guffin and Lord Macintosh both claim to have fought off Vikings, who raided Scotland between the 7th and 11th centuries CE. Castles were not found in Scotland until the 11th century CE, but castle Dun Broch appears ruined. Highland Dancing probably started in the 13th century CE. Merida's tight dress is distinctly Renaissance Italian, from the 14th century CE. Bagpipes date from the 14th century CE. Haggis was not documented until the 15th century CE. Tartan was not worn until the early 16th century CE, belted kilts not being common until the end of the century, and single kilts not until the end of the next. The formal Highland games were a Victorian invention, from the 19th Century. The welding helmet, as used by the witch, was invented in 1937 . According to Katherine Sarafian, Brave is set in the 10th to 12th centuries CE. Production Brave was first announced under the title of The Bear and the Bow. Other titles that had been considered include, among others The Bear King and his Daughter, Brave and the Bow and Bravehair. The film, Pixar's first fairy tale, is a combination of Brenda Chapman 's love of stories by Hans Christian Andersen and the Brothers Grimm, as well as a reflection on raising her daughter. The film departs from the traditional fairy tale storyline, neglecting the romance that has been associated with these stories. It focuses on the relationship between Merida and her mother Queen Elinor, which was inspired by Chapman's own relationship with her daughter. Chapman was supposed to be the film's sole director and Pixar's first female director. It was later reported that Pixar had replaced Chapman with Mark Andrews. Both Andrews and Chapman are both credited as the movie's directors. Following his involvement as director, Andrews cleared away many magic elements to focus on the core story. Chapman later stated that her vision ""came through in the film” and that she remains ""very proud of the movie. ""The film was initially set for release on June 15, 2012, but was later changed to June 22, 2012. Although the production of the film started in 2008, Brenda Chapman had already begun work years earlier. As early as in 2006, several members of the crew made a research trip in Scotland. They made two trips to Scotland for the film, visiting the Eilean Donan and Dunnottar Castles, as well as the Callanish Standing Stones on the Isle of Lewis, which inspired the circle of standing stones that appears in the film. To reproduce the lush and textured look of the landscapes of the Highlands, Pixar animators and designers created around 350 custom brushes in Photoshop, so that they could layer different designs, patterns, and shapes in layers to achieve a realistic and individual look to the environments. Animators were introduced to the weapons used in the film in order to understand their working: some went into archery classes, while Andrews taught sword fighting to animators. Originally, Reese Witherspoon was scheduled to voice Merida, but later she was unable to work on the film due to scheduling issues and was replaced by Kelly Macdonald as a result. Celtic and Pictish design and patterns have been integrated as decoration throughout the film—on Merida's bow, on clothing, on walls—and added to natural elements like snowflakes, moss, and tree branches. The original idea had 80% of the scenes taking place in the snow. In the final movie, however, very few snow scenes remain. Rating Brave is rated PG by the MPAA for some scary action and rude humor, making it the third Pixar film to receive this rating, the first being The Incredibles, the second being Up, the fourth being Inside Out and the fifth being The Good Dinosaur . Release

It had its Australian premiere on June 11, 2012, at the Sydney Film Festival, and had its domestic premiere on June 18, 2012, at the new Dolby Theatre in Hollywood as part of the Los Angeles Film Festival, its European premiere was at the Taormina Film Festival in Sicily on June 23, 2012 and its British premiere at the Edinburgh International Film Festival on June 30, 2012. In the United States and Canada, Brave is the first feature-length film to use the Dolby Atmos sound format. Almost half of the 14 theaters set up to show the film in Atmos are in California ( Burbank, Century City, Fremont, Hollywood, San Francisco and Sherman Oaks), with the others located in seven states ( Lake Buena Vista, Florida, Kansas City, Missouri, Paramus, New Jersey, Las Vegas, Nevada, Chicago, West Plano, Texas, Vancouver, Washington) and in Toronto, Ontario. It was released in other theaters with Dolby Surround 7.1. In total, it was released in 4,164 theaters, a record-high for Pixar, which was previously held by Cars 2 (4,115 theaters). 2,790 of the theaters will include 3D shows. Reception Critical response Brave has received mostly positive reviews from film critics. On April 3, 2012, Pixar screened the first 30 minutes of the movie, and it received a positive reaction by the test audience. Review aggregator Rotten Tomatoes reports that 79% of critics have given the film a positive review, with a rating average of 7/10 based on 229 reviews. One consensus statement reads, "" Brave offers young audiences and fairy tale fans a rousing, funny fantasy adventure with a distaff twist and surprising depth."" Another review aggregator, Metacritic, which assigns a normalized rating out of 100 top reviews from mainstream critics, calculated a score of 69 based on 37 reviews, or ""Generally favorable. ""Roger Ebert of the Chicago Sun-Times gave the film 3 out of 4 stars and wrote, ""The good news is that the kids will probably love it, and the bad news is that parents will be disappointed if they're hoping for another Pixar groundbreaker."" He said that the film had an uplifting message about improving communication between mothers and daughters. Peter Debruge of Variety gave a positive review of the film, remarking that the film ""offers a tougher, more self-reliant heroine for an era in which princes aren't so charming, set in a sumptuously detailed Scottish environment where her spirit blazes bright as her fiery red hair."" Debruge also said that ""Adding a female director Brenda Chapman to its creative boys' club, the studio has fashioned a resonant tribute to mother-daughter relationships that packs a level of poignancy on par with such beloved male-bonding classics as Finding Nemo . ""Conversely, Todd Mc Carthy of The Hollywood Reporter said that the film ""diminishes into a rather wee thing as it chugs along, with climactic drama that is both too conveniently wrapped up and hinges on magical elements that are somewhat confusing to boot. ""Music The film score to Brave was composed by Patrick Doyle. To bring some of Scotland's native flavor to the music, Doyle used native Scottish instruments such as bagpipes, a solo fiddle, Celtic harps, flutes and the bodhrán, with an electronically treated dulcimer and cimbalom to give it a more contemporary feel. ""I employed many classic Scottish dance rhythms such as reels, jigs, and strathspeys, which not only serve the action but keep it authentic,"" said Doyle. Doyle had also written a drinking song for King Fergus and was traveling back and forth to Scotland for research. The composer has also been recording ""unaccompanied Gaelic psalm singing."" In addition to Patrick Doyle's music, the film features three original songs. ""Touch the Sky"" (music by Alex Mandel, lyrics by Mark Andrews & Mandel) and ""Into the Open Air"" (music and lyrics by Alex Mandel) are both performed by Julie Fowlis. Mumford & Sons contributed the song ""Learn Me Right"" with Birdy to the film soundtrack. Box office As of January 17, 2013, the film had earned $237,283,207 in North America, and $298,100,000 in other countries, for a worldwide total of $535,379,132.

In North America, pre-release tracking suggested the film would open between $55 million to $65 million in North America, which is slightly below average for a Pixar film. Trackers suggested that the film might not appeal to the male demographic, whereas the female protagonist was expected to draw females of all ages, and 3D was expected to boost earnings. It opened on June 22, 2012, with $24.6 million. It finished its opening weekend with $66.3 million at the upper end of the numbers analysts predicted.

Andrews said, ""I don't know if there will be another one. We never make a film at Pixar to have a sequel. It is always nice when you do and we kind of have a philosophy that if we find the right story then we will. ""Gallery The Disney Wiki has a collection of images and media related to Brave. Trivia This is the first Pixar movie to have a female protagonist, followed by Inside Out and Finding Dory . This is also Pixar's first fairy tale. This is the second official Pixar movie to focus solely on a human cast, the first being The Incredibles with the third being its sequel Incredibles 2 . Brave is set in the kingdom of Dun Broch, during the 10th century. Brave is the first Pixar movie in which the villain has no dialogue. Mark Andrews confirmed that the Pizza Planet truck, as well as Pixar's other traditional Easter eggs appear in Brave: ""All the typical things, those little insider jokes are all in the movie."" It was reported that Tia Kratter, art director of the film, has hinted during her presentation at the D23 Expo that the truck would be in the Witch's house. On Fridays, the animators had to wear kilts as part of their work routine. During the Brave Press Event (held April 3-5, 2012), it was stated that 111,394 storyboards were created for the film, compared to 80,000 for Cars 2 and 92,854 for Toy Story 3 . There are more than 100 unique hair/facial hair combinations used in Brave for human characters and animals. Each variant can appear in any of nine different colors, creating more than 900 hairstyle/color variants. Brave 's logo include a stylized representation of Merida in the ""B"" and of Queen Elinor in the ""E"". The end credits of the movie include a special tribute to Steve Jobs, who died on October 5, 2011 of pancreatic cancer. John Ratzenberger, having appeared in every Pixar film to date, was the only all-American voice actor in Brave; all other voice actors were British or Scottish. Robbie Coltrane and Julie Walters (the respective voices for Lord Dingwall and the Witch) both appeared in the Harry Potter film series as Rubeus Hagrid and Molly Weasley, respectively, while Kelly Macdonald played the Gray Lady, and Emma Thompson portrayed Professor Trelawney. Brave is the fourth Pixar film in which any of its songs (in the body of the film) are sung by characters; Merida and her mother sing ""Noble Maiden Fair"", and King Fergus and other men sing ""Song of Mor'du"", the first being Toy Story 2 (in which a Woody puppet sings ""You've Got a Friend in Me"" on a television, and later, so does Wheezy with Barbie dolls in the background), the second being Monsters, Inc. when, at one time, Mike and Sulley sing part of ""Put that Thing Back where It Came from (Or So Help Me)"" and the third being Finding Nemo, in which Mr. Ray sings ""Let's Name the Species"" and while Dory sings ""Just keep Swimming"". The tapestry of Merida, Elinor, and Fergus is seen in car version in Cars 2 . Brave is the first Pixar movie to have one of its characters to be part of the Disney Princess line-up. Brave is the second PG-rated Disney Princess film, after Tangled . Brave is the first Disney Princess film to not have its theme song in English. Sulley from Monsters Inc. can be spotted on a carving in the witch's cottage. This film marks the first time a different composer than Randy Newman, Thomas Newman, or Michael Giacchino has composed a music score for a feature-length Pixar film. Despite its PG rating, the film's Disney XD airings blur out the comical nudity, due to inappropriate material for a television broadcast.

how early can you show signs of morning sickness?

? Morning sickness is one of the best-known (and most obvious!) symptoms of pregnancy. So how early can morning sickness begin?“Morning sickness often starts from 6 weeks - around two weeks after you miss your period,"" explains GP Dr Philippa Kaye. But some women can feel nauseous as early as 2-3 weeks, and for many it's one of the first symptoms of their pregnancy. Of course, no two women are the same and neither are any two pregnancies.

When does morning sickness start?

"When does morning sickness start? Your pregnancy body Pregnancy health Pregnancy6Nausea and vomiting can be the first sign of pregnancy but when do you start feeling queasy - and what does it mean if you don't

Some of us will be spared the toilet bowl until later in the first trimester, and some really lucky mums-to-be won't feel queasy at all. What if I don’t have any nausea or sickness: can I still be pregnant? This is a common worry. And yet, this is the rub. When we have pregnancy sickness we wish we didn't, and when we don't have it, many of us wish we did (or at least a little bit) just to reassure us we are actually pregnant!The thing to remember is that all pregnancies are different and no morning sickness shouldn't automatically be cause for concern. “If you don't have any nausea don't worry,” Dr Kaye says. “It doesn't mean anything is wrong, you are just lucky!”""I was 8 weeks pregnant before I found out,"" recalls Kas on our forums. ""When I told people, they were asking me if I had sore boobs, was I tired, did I need to wee all the time, was I feeling sick? It made me really panic, as I had none of these symptoms. It wasn't until I went for my 12 week scan that I could relax. ""What are the symptoms: will I actually be sick? According to Dr Kaye, around 50% of pregnant women will have some nausea with actual vomiting, and a slightly luckier 30% will feel nauseous but won’t actually be sick. It's still good old morning sickness, though. Nauseous symptoms may involve a heaving stomach, some dry retching (hmm, nice) or simply a queasy feeling. ""I was one of the lucky ones,"" says MFMer Caroline. ""I managed to get away with no morning sickness. I felt slightly sick when near a parsnip but that was it! I just felt slightly tired and emotional in the first 3 months. ""But for others, morning sickness can mean full blown vomiting. MFMer Ems had such bad vomiting she actually lost weight in the first 12 weeks of her second pregnancy. ""I couldn't eat a thing which is so not me! I didn't think it would ever end. I am just so thankful that I'm a full-time mum and not at work. It did ease of at about 16wks. ""And don't be fooled by the 'morning' bit of 'morning sickness'. Whoever came up with that name, hadn't experienced many pregnancies. For most of us, nausea can strike at any time throughout the day. Clairemumof3 certainly found this to be the case, revealing that she had “morning, afternoon and evening sickness” until 34-weeks. Find out if your mum suffered from morning sickness. One study found that women whose mothers had sickness in pregnancy are three times as likely to be affected themselves. If I had morning sickness in my 1st pregnancy, will I have it again this time round? Forget what you experienced last time. This is a new pregnancy, and could affect you in totally new ways. MFMer Kristy had very different symptoms with each of her 3 pregnancies. ""With my first pregnancy I never felt or looked pregnant and not one syptom at all. I only felt pregnant when I could feel the baby move. I remember doing tests at 10 weeks just to make sure I was still pregnant. With my second pregnancy I had sickness and a little tiredness. With my third pregnancy, I got everything in full force! ""Dr Kaye, had a similarly dramatic experience. “In my first pregnancy I was sick as a dog, up to 8 or 10 times a day – on the Tube, at work, on the street – everywhere. All I ate were Hula Hoops, gingernut biscuits and ice cold lemonade in the daytime, but then managed dinner. It was horrid! But for baby number two, I had no sickness at all bar one vomit!”How long will morning sickness last? By the end of your first trimester, morning sickness is usually a thing of the past. If you're lucky (ish), you'll find the nausea subsiding and your appetite returning to normal as you reach 12-15 weeks. For some, unfortunately, sickness can last well into the second trimester and occasionally through the entire pregnancy. Read more on how long morning sickness lasts What causes morning sickness symptoms? A surge in h CG and oestrogen hormones during the first trimester is believed to be one of the key causes of morning sickness, though, as Dr Kaye says, “We don't truly know the full answer to that. If you are pregnant with twins or more you have higher levels of h CG, and nausea and vomiting are often worse. Morning sickness is not caused by being hungry or tired but these two factors can make it worse so try and eat little and often and get some rest!”And is there anything I can do to stop morning sickness? It's a tricky one. What seems to work for some mums-to-be, doesn't work for others. So your best bet is try a few things out. Some of the most popular ones that MFM mums swear by are: Ginger - cooked in meal or as biscuits Dry, plain food - such as Digestive, Rich Tea or arrowroot biscuits, or dry toast Read more:4 breakfasts to ease morning sickness Is it morning sickness or hypermesis gravidarum? By Jane Howdle6 Comments Share Showing 5 of 6Twinny2I didn't feel sick at all in my first trimester and then just felt a bit queasy around week 15 to 20. I was never actually sick - and that was with twins. My advice would be not to worry if it doesn't happen to you - it's a blessing!Helen MFMThanks Twinny2: that's good advice! And lucky you. I had awful morning sickness - I'm very jealous!Leanne Thomas This is my 3rd pregnancy and I have come to the conclusion that part of Morning ( afternoon or evening ) sickness is psycological. I found out I was pregnant with my first two when I was around 3 weeks pregnant and was sick from then all the way to the end ( and labour) with my daughter and with my son I felt ok and wasnt sick for my last 2 weeks of pregnancy. With this pregnancy I didn't find out I was pregnant until I was nearly 11 weeks and I as soon as I found out I started to feel that familiar feeling of nausea. I am now 23 weeks and still gagging and being sick every day at no particular time. I think that it has a lot to do with hormones etc but also a bit psycological. Certain smells set me off as well. I totally agree with Twinny2: Count it as a blessing if you don't get it!Evarose17This is my first pregnancy and I'm 1-2 weeks in. I've been sick since I found out and just looking at food makes me throw up. No appetite either, not sure what to do. Could use some advice from you wonderful ladies. Miss Lizzy Beth I have been feeling like Im gonna throw up all the time and nothing is wrong and I'm always tires ans I have not taken the test yet because my mom would flip what should I do Load more posts Write a comment "

how fast is tom brady

. “Be able to make quick decisions, kind of ‘fast-twitched’ was a term I was taught at a young age at quarterback, being a ‘fast-twitched’ thinker and decision-maker.”Snap. Grab. Long stride. Throw. Last season, New England’s Tom Brady had the fastest average release at 2.47 seconds. Manning ranked second at 2.50. (This season, Brady is tied for sixth at 2.54. )How about that?

"Sports Denver Broncos Fast releases for Peyton Manning, Tom Brady have propelled their NFL careers Previous Next1 of 4Peyton Manning makes a pass down field Sunday against Washington. More photos.By Mike Klis | The Denver Post PUBLISHED: November 23, 2013 at 11:48 am | UPDATED: April 29, 2016 at 6:03 am Snap. Catch. Chop, chop, chop. Earhole. Throw. It takes longer to type what Peyton Manning does from snap to release than it does for him to get rid of the ball. Don’t call Manning the quickest draw in the West. He has the fastest release of any NFL quarterback in the West, East, Midwest, North and South. On average, Manning delivers his pass, snap to release, in 2.33 seconds — 0.17 of a second faster than his average release time last season, his first with the Broncos, and nearly a tenth of a second faster than the league’s next-quickest trigger this season, Jacksonville quarterback Chad “Ready, Set, Hit Me” Henne.“I’ve always believed that quarterbacks have to be fast thinkers,” Manning said

When Brady’s Patriots and Manning’s Broncos meet Sunday night at Gillette Stadium in Foxborough, Mass., the high-profile game not only will feature the best NFL quarterbacks of the past 13 years, it will match the quarterbacks who get rid of the ball the fastest. Coincidence?“Well, we prefer to go against guys that are slow decision-makers and have a real slow delivery,” Broncos interim head coach and defensive coordinator Jack Del Rio said with a sarcastic laugh. “My son plays quarterback, right? I’m always stressing what’s most important is smart and accurate. A guy might run a 4.2 (in the 40) and jump 10 feet high. But is he smart and accurate? Can he make quick decisions and put the ball where he wants to put it, on time?”Brady went to the NFL scouting combine in 2001 and was so athletically unimpressive, he wasn’t drafted until the sixth round. If each of Sunday’s starting quarterbacks in the NFL were put through the scouting combine tests next week, Manning might come out ranked in the bottom five in mobility and dead last in arm strength. And yet Manning ranks No. 1 this season in passer rating, yards, touchdown passes and win-loss record — and the Broncos (9-1) are on a league-record scoring pace.“These guys, you can’t overestimate how smart they are,” said Tony Dungy, an NFL analyst for NBC and former NFL coach. “The whole process of reading and figuring out the coverage and deciding where to go with the ball, they do it so much faster than most quarterbacks in the NFL. They’re all processing the same information and the same reads, but they’re doing it at warp speed so they don’t have to hold the ball.”Tebow had slow trigger In 2011, no other NFL quarterback took longer to throw the ball, snap to release, than the Broncos’ Tim Tebow. The combination of operating the read-option sequence before throwing, and the lefty’s ponderous delivery, resulted in an average release time of 3.65 seconds, nearly half a second more deliberate than the next-slowest passer, Philadelphia’s Michael Vick. That means Broncos offensive linemen are blocking 1.32 fewer seconds for Manning in 2013 than they did for Tebow in 2011. What does 1.32 Mississippis do to a pass rush? It makes it almost four times more difficult to sack the quarterback. Manning is the second-most difficult passer to sack this season — once every 31.5 pass attempts. Tebow was the easiest to sack in 2011 (among quarterbacks with at least 105 pass attempts) at once every 8.2 attempts.“Sometimes, even if you fall off a block, the defensive lineman doesn’t have time to get there,” said Broncos left guard Zane Beadles. “There’s definitely something to it.”Among the factors that go into a quick release are good mechanics, presnap defensive coverage and blitz reads, post- snap coverage and blitz reads and patience to take the 3-yard gain and not wait for the 15-yarder to come open.“Usually, anything over three seconds is probably a bonus in pro football today,” Manning said. Broncos offensive coordinator Adam Gase pointed out how conceptual design can’t be discounted. For example, the quarterbacks with the slowest release times — a group that includes the athletic Russell Wilson, Cam Newton, Robert Griffin III and Colin Kaepernick — all run some form of read option before throwing the ball. The offensive systems used by Manning and Brady are heavy on shotgun formations and rarely incorporate a seven-step drop.“Our offense is, both are probably high-percentage passing and try to get completions to move the sticks,” Brady said. “I think that’s more the function of it than anything.”Still, no one is better at carrying out a play-action fake than Manning — and his release time of 2.33 seconds is a full second quicker than Wilson’s 3.35 release time last season. Among the benefits of a quick release is the frustration it causes pass rushers.“When you go against guys like Tom Brady and Philip Rivers,” said Broncos pass rusher Von Miller, “you have to take advantage of those third-and-long opportunities.”The offense, meanwhile, takes advantage of yards after the catch. Denver wideout Demaryius Thomas leads NFL receivers by a substantial margin this season with 509 yards after the catch.“The quicker you get the ball in your hands, the quicker you can make the defender miss,” Thomas said. “Peyton’s been doing it his whole career.”Tough, easy QBs to sack A quick release doesn’t necessarily pave the road to NFL success. Green Bay’s Aaron Rodgers and Pittsburgh’s Ben Roethlisberger are known in defensive film rooms across the league as “ball holders,” quarterbacks who will wait an extra tick for routes to develop downfield before throwing. And they have accounted for three of the past eight Super Bowl titles. But durability is becoming an issue for both QBs too. Since the start of the 2008 season, Roethlisberger has taken an NFL-most 234 sacks, averaging 39 per season. Rodgers is next with 220 sacks, 36.7 per season. There have been times this year when it seemed Roethlisberger was 31 going on 41. Rodgers is out with a broken collarbone. Brady, meanwhile, has taken an average of 25.6 sacks his last five seasons while Manning has averaged only 14.2 sacks. Injuries forced Brady and Manning to each miss a season. But they already have played long enough to ensure first-ballot election to the Pro Football Hall of Fame. Both are closer to 40 years old than 30, yet their fast releases will help them live for many more NFL days ahead.2.33 Peyton Manning’s release time, in seconds, from snap to throw in 2013. That ranks first in the NFL. Last season, Manning ranked second with a time of 2.50.2.54 Tom Brady’s release time, in seconds, from snap to throw in 2013. He ranks sixth in the NFL.
