New England Patriots: Tom Brady wins AFC Offensive Player of the Month

With the month of November coming to an end, New England Patriots quarterback Tom Brady has been named the AFC Offensive Player of the Month.

As the New England Patriots have been rolling since the first month of the season, so has their quarterback. After a great 2016 season, Tom Brady has been playing at an elite level once again in 2017.

Despite the Patriots having some struggles early in the season, Brady has played great for them all season. Even when the offensive line was having some major issues, Brady was able to overcome that and will the Patriots to a few wins that they likely shouldn’t have won.

In November, the Patriots have been firing on all cylinders. They were able to win all three games that they played against the Denver Broncos, Oakland Raiders, and Miami Dolphins. Despite one of those games being in another country, they were all easy wins for New England.

To no surprise, Brady’s statistics in those games were great. In the three games, Brady totaled at least three touchdown passes in each win. Also, he only threw one interception in that span. Overall, Brady totaled 10 touchdown passes.

This is certainly a well-deserved accolade for Brady, as he has been nothing short of excellent for the Patriots all season. So far in 2017, Brady has now totaled 26 touchdown passes and just three interceptions.

With five games still left on the schedule, Brady will easily total more than 4,000 passing yards, and he does have a chance to throw for 40 touchdowns this season. Since Brady has had such a great season and the Patriots are one of the top teams in the NFL, he will certainly be in consideration for the league MVP.
