Former Michigan Athlete of the Week: Tom Brady

New England Patriots quarterback Tom Brady helped beat the Pittsburgh Steelers on Sunday by a score of 39-26.  Brady was 30-for-43 with 350 yards, 3 passing touchdowns, and 1 rushing TD.  Additionally, he’s my QB in my fantasy football keeper league and earned me 38 points.  If only Michigan could produce a solid tight end and a running back or two, I could field an all-Michigan fantasy team . . .

Honorable mention: Arizona Cardinals wide receiver Steve Breaston made 4 catches for 98 yards and averaged more than 24 yards on five kickoff returns.  Unfortunately for him, the Cardinals lost to Seattle, 36-18.
