He hit running back Shane Vereen for a 49-yard score, found Vereen on a three-yard TD and zipped a third one in to receiver Danny Amendola for 19 yards. Brady only connected to six different receivers and only four of them had multiple catches.
Touchdown Tom is suddenly rolling, coming off a terrific four-score game against the Buffalo Bills in Week 6. He has nine scores and zero interceptions in his last three outings -- all wins.
Fantasy impact: He was left for dead with his inability to get the ball down the field, but things are really starting to come together. Brady has a favorable schedule the rest of the way, so he could wind up being a low-end QB1 the rest of the way.
