2. Week 9, 2014 – Patriots 43, Broncos 21

Quick look at stats: nine receptions (10 targets), 105 yards, touchdown

At the time, this game was viewed as a big midseason test for a Patriots team that had shrugged off its September demons. But a big performance out of Gronk kept the Broncos at bay, and the Patriots cruised to a big win.

Brady threw the ball all over creation in this game, connecting on 33 of his 53 passes. Gronk led the way with those 105 yards and early fourth quarter touchdown, and his efforts were echoed by Julian Edelman (nine receptions, 89 yards, touchdown), Brandon LaFell (six receptions, 53 yards, touchdown) and Shane Vereen (five receptions 38 yards, touchdown).

This was Gronk’s second-best performance against the Broncos in terms of receiving yardage.
