New England Patriots offense is scary good
The Patriots had nine possessions against the Jacksonville Jaguars on Sunday afternoon. They scored on all nine possessions. Tom Brady completed a ridiculous 33-of-42 passes for 358 yards with two touchdowns and zero picks.
Through three games, Brady is now on pace to tally over 5,900 passing yards with 48 touchdowns and zero picks. He also crossed the 400 touchdown pass plateau for his career — a feat only three other quarterbacks in NFL history have accomplished.
As a team, the Patriots are averaging nearly 40 points and 446 yards of total offense per game.
In the team’s 51-17 win over Jacksonville, Brady received plenty of help from the running game. Making just his second appearance of the season LeGarrette Blount put up 78 yards and three rushing touchdowns. Meanwhile, Dion Lewis added 67 total yards and a score.
If New England is able to get this type of balance moving forward, its going to repeat as AFC champions. That’s not even up for debate, especially with the way Brady has played through three games.
