Brady finished off the game with 34 of 50 pass attempts covering 410 yards with three scores and one turnover. Suffice to say that was the most Brady-like performance recently seen.

Tom Brady ties up with Aaron Rodgers and Drew Brees

Incidentally Brady tied up with Aaron Rodgers for the most 40 passing touchdown seasons in NFL history. And since he did it in back-to-back seasons, Brady tied with former Saints star Drew Brees (2011-2012) as the only quarterbacks to achieve this feat.

“For me it’s just I have a lot of confidence in the guys I’m playing with,” Brady said. “The line was playing great, the receivers were making plays, the tight ends were making plays, the backs were making plays. So, from my quarterback standpoint, just believing in your guys and trusting them. That’s what that situation is all about and we did that today.”

Tom Brady continues to assert his dominance in the league at such a stage in his career. He certainly will become the unreachable quarterback in all of stats, if he continues to play with such magnitude for another decade.
