I'm sure many will see it as ..
Two weeks is a long time, and we know nothing about the injury. I'm sure Brady will gut it out if he has to.
Back to your question: Cause for alarm? I don't think so. Cause for concern? Absolutely.
I'm sure we'll hear lots more in the next 12 days, but I'd refrain from slamming the panic button just yet.
RE:
B) Didn't see him limp or favor his foot at all.
C) This is going to get blown way out of proportion...

Didn't see a cast
yes it was him...
2002 AFC Title Game
I really don't see any cause for concern, here.

Good point!

I wouldn't worry
Secondly, even if it was something more serious, it wouldn't necessarily be cause for alarm. A good friend of mine used to wear a walking cast for a week or two every time he went home on vacation from college as a means of treating an uncomfortable but not debilitating or even limiting-in-any-way ligament injury in his ankle without having to resort to surgery.
Finally, do you really think Tom Brady, consummate professional that he is, would be out clubbing if he was seriously injured?
Uh...
Personally, since Brady said on EEI that unless he was on a stretcher he'd be playing, I'm going to take his word for it.
I'll start worrying if it's Sunday the third and he doesn't have a uniform on, and not a moment sooner... :)
Even if there is
The real problem is that he had such a poor game. The concern is that if there was/is an injury that markedly affected his performance, will it linger and similarly affect his super bowl performance, esp. vs a team that has success getting after the qb?

you know the bright thing about Brady's foot
Yeah,
did he?
the idea that brady might put on a cast to plant the idea of more an an injury than he has would be pretty much in line with that ancient philosophy.
reading this you might find some things that sound more than a little familiar...
The thought of it being strategic gamesmanship
oh gods yes
how many -gates can you think of? anyone want to make a list?
