It was strange, too, that the mark came during a game in which Brady didn’t even throw for a touchdown. Maybe that’s because Bill Belichick knows him so well. Perhaps it was because the Patriots defense is still stocked with several players – hello, Devin McCourty, hi, Kyle Van Noy – that Brady used to play against in practice. And let’s not forget the Gronk factor. Brady threw for 10 touchdowns during the first three weeks of the season and four were to Gronkowski, but with "Red Zone Robby" not even making the trip because of a rib injury, Brady couldn't find a scoring strike and the Bucs offense sputtered so much after getting into striking range.
