1.) Revenge Tour

For the Patriots, 2016 has been all about getting revenge after they felt quarterback Tom Brady was unfairly suspended. Since Brady came back against the Cleveland Browns in Week 5, he has been outstanding.

This season, Brady has totaled 28 passing touchdowns and just two interceptions. His 14:1 touchdown to interception ratio is a new NFL record. The great season from Brady has resulted in him being an MVP candidate this season. The ability of Brady to protect the ball this season has been outstanding. Turnovers are a way for a team that isn’t as good to pull off an upset. However, Brady doesn’t help his opponent with any extra possessions.

With the playoffs nearly underway, Brady is poised to complete his revenge tour this season. In the playoffs, Brady has played nearly an additional two seasons of football, as he has started in 31 playoff games.

Next: Revisiting Preseason Predictions

In the playoffs, Brady has totaled a 22-9 record, 56 passing touchdowns, and 28 interceptions. As one of the best quarterbacks of all-time, the Patriots have a huge advantage with Brady under center. Brady has been able to defeat a few teams this season that has given him problems in the past.

As the revenge tour finishes up, Brady is the main reason why the Patriots will be able to win the Super Bowl this season.
