Tom Brady throws 2 touchdowns in solid fantasy outing vs. Jets on Sunday
Tom Brady went 26-for-42 passing for 259 yards and two touchdowns during Sunday’s game between the Patriots and the Jets. We break down the fantasy implications.

Brady has now thrown 10 touchdowns on the season to just three interceptions. Sunday was just his third game passing for under 300 yards this season.
Fantasy Impact: Brady’s day was relatively quiet fantasy-wise by his standards, but it was still pretty solid. He certainly didn’t hurt owners against the Jets. There is still no reason to ever take him out of your starting lineup, whatever the matchup.
Next week he will take on a very good St. Louis Rams secondary. The Rams have given up a league-low four touchdown passes this season, while intercepting eight passes. Your backup would have to have a very good matchup for you to consider benching Brady, however.
