New England won their 10th-straight AFC East title on Sunday but their quarterback is not clicking with his offense as he once did
The Patriots wrapped up their 10th straight division title with a comfortable 24-12 win over the Bills on Sunday. Yet something is off – and that something is Tom Brady. The week Brady was named to his 14th Pro Bowl, the quarterback completed just 13 of his 24 throws, passing for a measly 126 yards, one touchdown and two interceptions against an average Buffalo defense.
It’s not that Brady has been bad this season. In fact, Brady has been good, ranking sixth in Football Outsiders’ total quarterback value and down-to-down efficiency metrics. He just hasn’t lived up to his almost impossible standards. Brady has already tossed 11 interceptions this season, more than his previous two seasons combined.
