New England Patriots: Week 12 Fantasy Projection for Tom Brady
By Nick Ziegler
In Week 12 of the fantasy football season, what can we expect from New England Patriots quarterback, Tom Brady?
The New England Patriots are coming off their bye week and a loss to the Tennessee Titans in Week 10. While the Patriots have had a good season with a 7-3 record, they have lost three games on the road this season.
This week, the Patriots will be on the road once again, but they will be facing the New York Jets. The Jets are also coming off a bye week and an awful loss to the Buffalo Bills. However, the Jets are going in one direction and the Patriots in another.
Coming off a poor game against the Titans, Tom Brady will be seeking to get back on track against the Jets. While the Jets have been mediocre against quarterbacks in fantasy football this season, they have given up a lot of points in certain games.
On the road recently, Brady has not been playing up to expectations. In his last two road games against the Titans and Bills, Brady hasn’t thrown a touchdown pass in either of them. Coming off the bye week with his team needing wins to keep up with the Chiefs for home-field, Brady and the offense will hopefully have some of their offensive problems fixed.
Last season against the Jets, the Patriots were able to win both games, and Brady threw for two touchdowns in each of them. Brady has certainly been in a funk of late, but this is a good spot for him to find his fantasy groove.
Since the Patriots are coming off their bye week, they should be a bit healthier than they have been in recent weeks. Since the Jets don’t have much to play for and look like they have packed it in after the loss to the Bills, Brady should have a good game.
