Patriots blow out Texans behind Brady's 4 TDs
Tom Brady - QB - New England Patriots
Dec. 10, 2012 - 11:40 PM ET

Tom Brady completed 21-of-35 passes for 296 yards, four touchdowns, and no interceptions in Monday night's blowout Week 14, 42-14 win over the Texans.

Brady and the Patriots came out firing on all cylinders right out of the gate. New England found the end zone on their first three possessions and jumped out to a quick 21-0 lead to essentially end the game just as quickly as it started. Brady found Aaron Hernandez from seven yards out first, then hit a wide open Brandon Lloyd on play action for a 37-yard score, before finding an uncovered Hernandez again for a four-yard touchdown. Brady got newly re-signed Donte' Stallworth involved later in the third quarter with a deep 63-yard bomb to cap off the onslaught. Ryan Mallett came in and played the final five minutes or so under center. It was just another day at the office for Brady, who now has thrown 19 touchdowns compared to one interception over the past seven games. We'll see the Patriots on Sunday Night Football next week as they host the 49ers.
