DETROIT -- Tom Brady was perfect on the field and his exit was first-class. Brady threw a season-high four touchdown passes, all in the second half, and the New England Patriots routed the Detroit Lions 45-24 on Thursday after trailing by 11 late in the second quarter."We showed some resiliency, coming out in the second half and playing the way we did when the crowd was into it," Brady said. Following Brady's brief news conference, the former Michigan star jogged out of Ford Field -- limping slightly up a steep ramp -- hugged Robert Kraft and got into an idling limo with the team owner behind a police escort.New England (9-2) moved a half-game ahead of the AFC East rival New York Jets -- who played Cincinnati on Thursday night -- for the NFL's best record, setting up a showdown at home Dec. 6."I don't think we're at where we need to be at," Brady said. "But this is a tough group."It's safe to say Tom Brady is not only the best QB in the league but maybe the best of all time, right? We'll wait until the end of the year when he has another ring for that discussion. I love the new mountain man look though. While Peyton Manning and Drew Brees are these clean cut guys with no facial hair, Tom Terrific isn't taking care of anything except winning fucking football games. That's all I want. The fact that he's a complete stud and married to a super model is an added bonus. Give me 40 seconds on the clock, put the ball on your own 5 yard line with a 6 point deficit and tell me another guy you want leading your squad down the field. Don't say Peyton because we all know what happened when we gave him that scenario last week.
P.S. Ending your press conference then hugging the owner and hopping in his limo might be the most boss thing any person can do.
