(Reuters) - Tom Brady was sacked five times in the first half, but the New England Patriots quarterback still managed to lead the defending Super Bowl champions to a 30-6 rout against the Dallas Cowboys on Sunday.
Brady had not been sacked five times in a half since late in the 2001 season in a game against the Buffalo Bills.
Still, despite his first-half struggles, 38-year-old Brady had the Patriots ahead 13-3 at halftime with a one-yard touchdown run in the second quarter for his first rushing touchdown in three years.
