Brady stays hot, throws for 423 yards in 35-21 win
HOWARD ULMAN (The Associated Press) ![]() 07:10:31AM (DST) Monday 9.19.2011. FOXBOROUGH, Mass. (AP) — Big-yardage games are becoming routine for Tom Brady. So is setting records. Brady threw for 423 yards Sunday — six days after setting a single-game team record of 517 — and led the New England Patriots to a 35-21 win over the San Diego Chargers. "It seems like he's always great," linebacker Rob Ninkovich said. "He's the best quarterback in the league." The club record he shattered in the season opener at Miami had stood for 51 years. The NFL mark for most yards passing in the first two games of a season, 854, lasted about three hours. Carolina rookie Cam Newton set that before Brady ended the day at 940 yards. "Two pretty outstanding outings" by Brady, said left tackle Matt Light, who protects his blind side. "He's the leader of our offense. When he's doing well, we're all good." Brady became the first player in NFL history to follow a 500-yard passing performance with a 400-yard game, and the Patriots scored 30 points for the 10th straight regular-season game. He threw three touchdown passes and went 31 for 40 with no interceptions as the Patriots (2-0) scored on each of their four first-half possessions. ------------------------------------------------------------------ This may be Brady's year.
