Tom Brady finds four receivers for scores in win Published: Jan 01, 2019 at 06:25 AM Around The NFL Writer The final week of the regular season came and went without so much as a Monday night game. No worries, though, because we still received an admittedly odd group of unstoppable performers. The first name isn't surprising. The rest? Well... Unstoppable Performer Tom Brady, New England Patriots Everyone has a name for him. Mr. Cool. Tom Terrific. G.O.A.T. But on Sunday, if you scrolled Twitter during the early portion of the Patriots- game, you'd find more people calling attention to Brady's age and -- gasp -- #GradualDecline than you would his excellence. That's because he mi sed a wide open receiver over the middle in the end zone, which happens to everyone occasionally, I suppose. It just got more play because it's 41-year-old Brady. What Ty France Jersey should have gotten more attention, though, was the way Brady carved up a secondary that was so thin, only ' name was recognizable. The result: 24-of-33 pa sing, 250 yards and four touchdowns. Each of those four scores went to different targets (including !). New England also secured a first-round bye with the win for the ninth straight season, which is difficult enough to comprehend. Perhaps "chef" should be added to Brady's list of nicknames. Also considered ... C.J. Anderson, Los Angeles Rams Two straight weeks of an Anderson-heavy attack have scored two wins for the and two appearances in this space for the running back who spent the majority of the season on his couch. Did I make that reference last week? Perhaps. But did Anderson break 100 yards rushing again this week? You betcha! Anderson rushed 23 times for 132 yards and a touchdown, as the rolled to a 48-32 win that wasn't as close as the score indicates. His 132 yards gave him 299 in his first two games, the most of any running back in his first two games with the since 1970, per NFL Research. For comparison, Eric Dickerson logged just 179 in his first two games, and Marshall Faulk, 159. isn't even on the list (though we can't hold the state of the in 2015 against him). Anderson added three catches for 22 yards, which isn't much but shows he isn't just a guy to whom you hand the ball Tony Gwynn Jersey . His 299 yards in the last two weeks lead the NFL in that span of time. Simply, no one has been hotter from Christmas Eve's Eve to New Year's Eve than Anderson. Luckily for the , it doesn't snow in Southern California. Matt Prater It's Week 17 (well, it was), so let's get wacky. Prater owns the record for the longest field goal made in NFL history at 64 yards. That's high-quality stuff. He's a serviceable kicker in terms of field-goal accuracy (87.5 percent in 2018), and is quite reliable on extra points (98.1 percent). But the ball? In a lucky set of circumstances, Prater threw his first career touchdown pa s on a fake field goal -- and former bombastic punter Pat McAfee was on the call. Listen for yourself: How fun is that? In a mostly lost season, the got a feel-good win to close the campaign by way of timely offensive play and a stifling defense that found itself fortunate to face instead of . Prater's touchdown was the icing on that farewell cake. (Oh, and he made a field goal and four extra points, too.)
