The last choice is probably pretty obvious at this point, and is simply a formality. Tom Brady is one of the greatest quarterbacks in the history of the game, and he showed his greatness on Sunday against an impressive Bills’ defense.

Brady has historically struggled a bit against Rex Ryan in the past, and this is widely considered to be the best defensive unit Ryan has worked with. That could have ended up in a tough afternoon for Brady, but he was not having any of that.

The Patriots’ quarterback ended up completing 38-of-59 passes (64% completion percentage) for 466 yards and three touchdowns. Brady did not throw an interception.

Brady is clearly motivated to dominate the NFL this season, and that is a great sign for the Patriots and their fans. When it comes down to it, Brady is on pace for an MVP-level season. Obviously, we have a long ways to go, but if he can do this against the Bills’ incredible defense, what can he do against the rest of the league? The ceiling is seemingly limitless.
