Tom Brady’s not so-very good extraordinary day

COMMENTARY

It was a good day for the Tom Brady Mystique on Sunday as the Patriots quarterback passed Peyton Manning to become the NFL’s all-time passing leader in a 27-13 win over the New York Jets.

Beyond that, how the afternoon actually went for the present-day Tom Brady is up for debate.

With Rob Gronkowski once again at his disposal, Brady threw for 283 yards and a pair of touchdowns against the pathetic Jets, an improvement from his stinker two weeks ago against the Tennessee Titans. It was the first game in more than a month during which Brady threw more than one touchdown pass and the 115.
