Quarterback Tom Brady ranked as the QB1 on Sunday games, with 355 passing yards, 2 passing touchdowns, and an additional rushing touchdown. Brady tied Washington quarterback Kirk Cousins (317 yards, 3 passing touchdowns, 1 rushing touchdown). Brady's performance came against the Jets secondary, while Cousins came against the Buccaneers. Not difficult to call Brady more impressive.
The Patriots running backs weren't worth playing. James White collected 30 yards on 5 touches, but that's it. New England can't return Dion Lewis as soon enough.
Danny Amendola led the Patriots wide receivers with a WR10 performance of 86 yards and a touchdown from 8 receptions. Julian Edelman's 54 yards on 5 receptions wasn't enough to move the register.
Tight end Rob Gronkowski was the TE2 on the week with 108 yards and a touchdown on 11 receptions. Washington's Jordan Reed led the league with 72 yards and 2 touchdowns on 11 receptions. Old friend Michael Hoomanawanui was the TE7 on Sunday games after collecting 31 yards and a touchdown. Tight end touchdowns are so key.
Kicker Stephen Gostkowski tied as the K2 on the week with three field goals and three extra points. He is yet to miss a kick this season. The Vikings Blair Walsh led the league after connecting on five field goals and an extra point.
