I know we’re a few weeks into the 2020 season and I haven’t posted one of these yet, but I’m going to try to bring it back now that we’re back to games and I’m not still doing the season countdown.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback Tom Brady completed 33/45 passes for 369 yards and 4 touchdowns in a 45-20 win over the Las Vegas Raiders. Brady has now thrown the most touchdown passes in NFL history, surpassing Drew Brees.

Hit the jump for more.

    I enjoy these. Thanks for bringing them back.

    Nice to see Watson doing well. Maybe safety is a better fit than CB given the lack of top end speed.

    Saw on twitter someone posted a nearly identical game-winner DPJ caught in High School. Pretty cool.

    I believe Charlton is now Clark’s backup. When Danna gets healthy the Chiefs are going to be very UM-heavy at DE.

    OL don’t get counting stats but Michael Onwenu is killing it.
