On a night when he reached 500 career touchdown passes

FOXBOROUGH Parris Campbell Jersey , Mass. — Tom Brady welcomed back a buddy with one of his three scoring tosses Thursday, then connected with a newcomer who could help him reach more milestones.Brady also sneaked in for a rushing touchdown and the New England Patriots put together their second straight win after a mediocre start to the season, beating Indianapolis 38-24.Brady’s 500th went to Josh Gordon, recently acquired from Cleveland, where he basically was unavailable through NFL suspensions for all but five games over the past three seasons. But, as he often does, Brady spread the wealth, hitting running back James White 10 times for 77 yards, and greeting the return of buddy Julian Edelman by completing seven for 57 yards to him.“We wanted to get him the ball and he made some great plays,” Brady said about Edelman. “Just good to have him out there. We all want it to be perfect when we go out and it was great to have him out there … healthy and having fun.”As for 500 TD passes, third on the career list behind Peyton Manning (539) and Brett Favre (508) http://www.ravenscheapstores.com/miles-boykin-jersey-cheap , Brady called it a collective mark.“I think all these things like that, milestones, there are so many people that contribute, all the people that have really worked hard,” he said. “A quarterback doesn’t throw to himself.“These are all great team awards, pretty cool.”The five-time NFL champion also tied Colts kicker Adam Vinatieri, a former teammate, for most victories with 226. Brady finished 34 for 44 for 341 yards.As everyone in Gillette Stadium except, apparently, the Colts knew, Brady started off with a pass to Edelman, who was wide open for 9 yards. That drew the first of many loud cheers for the 10th-year veteran receiver in his first game since the 2017 preseason http://www.coltscheapshop.com/cheap-authentic-bobby-okereke-jersey Jersey , when he tore up a knee. Edelman was suspended for the first four games this year for violating the NFL’s policy on performance enhancers. “During the rehab you are just sitting there and waiting to get back on the field,” Edelman said. “It felt great to be out there with the guys.”That was the first of three receptions for 28 yards for Edelman on the opening 75-yard touchdown drive Brady capped with a 1-yard toss to Cordarrelle Patterson .From there, even though the Colts (1-4) had a drive deep into New England (3-2) territory, usually reliable Adam Vinatieri missed a 38-yard field goal.Nothing was going right for Indianapolis, particularly after Brady led a 72-yard march to his sneak from the 1. Then he took the Patriots 68 yards near the end of the half and hit workhorse White for a 6-yard score to lead 21-3.Under pressure, Andrew Luck threw a poor pass that Patrick Chung intercepted at midfield, and Stephen Gostkowski made a 45-yard field goal for a 24-3 halftime lead.Luck did extend his string of games with a touchdown pass by hitting Eric Ebron on a 14-yarder in the third quarter. Showing a strong arm all night — remember, Luck missed all of 2017 with shoulder issues — he has a TD throw in 28 successive games, tops of any current quarterback.“We’re not going to win consistently until we learn how to get out of our own way,” Luck said. “That’s not taking anything away from New England. They were the better team today. Anybody who watched it or played in it knows it. It was self-evident.“But we’re going to have to learn how not to lose if we want to give ourselves a chance to win.”After Matthias Farley’s interception of a pass bobbled by Chris Hogan, Indy could do nothing. Rookie Jordan Wilkins had the ball stripped from his hands by Devin McCourty four players later.But a second pick of Brady that was not his fault — Rob Gronkowski had the ball stolen and Najee Goode wound up with it — helped the Colts get back into it for a short time.Looking like vintage Luck, he brought his team 80 yards Noah Fant Jersey , including a pair of big third-down throws to Ebron, and Eric Swoope caught a 13-yard scoring pass to make it 24-17.That’s when everyone saw vintage Brady as he hit the half-century mark for TD throws by connecting with newcomer Gordon for 34 yards, the 71st player to catch a touchdown pass from Brady, an NFL mark.“A great play Josh made jumping over two defenders,” Brady said. “It tells you kind of the confidence I have in him in a short period of time. Obviously he has earned it.”KICKING ITVinatieri, whose leg helped New England win three Super Bowls, hit the left upright with his 673rd career field goal attempt, the second most in NFL history. He already holds the mark for most field goals made and is closing in on Hall of Famer Morten Andersen’s points record, but was victimized by a high snap on the first-quarter miss.Showing his true skills, Vinatieri later nailed a 54-yarder with plenty to spare.PRODUCTIVE BACKFIELDIn addition to White’s receptions, rookie Sony Michel had 98 yards rushing on 18 carries, including the final New England score http://www.denverbroncosteamonline.com/dalton-risner-jersey , a 34-yard burst down the sideline in the final period.UNDERMANNEDThe Colts were severely depleted, missing five starters, including their best receiver. T.Y. Hilton was out with chest and hamstring injuries. Tight end Jack Doyle (hip), running back Marlon Mack (hamstring), tackle Denzelle Good (personal matter) and cornerback Kenny Moore II (concussion) also were sidelined. They lost five more players during the game.DEFLATED FEELINGNot much was made of the “Deflategate” saga, even though this was Indy’s first trip to Gillette Stadium since getting routed in the 2014 AFC title game. That loss led to an NFL investigation of alleged underinflated footballs, and eventually to a four-game suspension for Brady, which he sat out in 2016.UP NEXTColts: at New York Jets on Oct. 14.Patriots: host Kansas City on Oct. 14. Like many boys growing up, I dreamed of one day becoming a starting quarterback in the National Football League (NFL). It always seemed like they had it all: the money, the girls, the glory. Their lives seemed so perfect. But for some quarterbacks, that glory and fame is short lived and often never lives up to the hype they expected. The quarterback is the most important position for any franchise in the NFL and is often the hardest position to predict future greatness.All franchises have reached for a quarterback at some point in the draft with hopes that player will be the next franchise quarterback Drew Lock Jersey , only to have it backfire and create resentment by the fans. Drafting quarterbacks is like playing with fire for NFL GMs; you draft a good one and you look like a genius, but if you draft a bust, expect to go down with him. Still, each year franchises will continue the never ending search for the next great quarterback and each year more bust could be added to this list.This list, in particular, looks at each teams biggest quarterback bust in their history. Some of these players really weren't too bad, but either injuries, off the field issues, or just failure to shine under the brightest lights earned them a spot on this list. Other players on this list were just plain terrible. So, take a look at the biggest QB bust in your franchise's history and see what they are up to now... if you can do so without cringing.
