OK, I'm biased as a Patriots fan, but was listening to Tom Brady talk, talk, and talk this morning on WEEI.com. And instead of the usual athlete cliches, he was deeply analyzing opposing defenses, how they differ, sounding more like a professor than someone who takes hits every weekend from 300 pound linebackers.
Brady was a 6th round draft pick out of college, with a weak arm and a scrawny frame. Like a lot of ENTP athletes, his strength is intellectual, not purely physical. However, unlike ENTP baseball players such as Tim Lincecum and Kevin Youkilis, he doesn't have unorthodox goofy-looking mechanics.
That's because Brady is an ENFP, like Brees. Just because he can analyze doesn't mean he can't be an F. He's spent all his life playing football so he's had to be able to pick stuff up along the way. That explains his fluidity in the sport as well. The majority of your NFL hall of fame QB's will be ESTP's though, like Peyton. Unitas, Montana, Favre, etc.
