Tom Brady absolutely scorches the Buffalo Bills secondary with a 53-yard dart to wideout Chris Hogan. If the New England Patriots can go vertical, look out!

The New England Patriots are the best team in the NFL entering Week 8. They are 6-1 and nobody is stopping them in the AFC this season. New England now has Tom Brady back after his Deflategate suspension and he is carving up NFL defenses at will.

New England rarely goes deep in Josh McDaniels’ offense, but Brady now has a vertical weapon in wideout Chris Hogan. Watch them connect on a 53-yard bomb that makes Buffalo Bills cornerback Stephon Gilmore look like a fool.

This is a huge revenge game for New England. The Patriots lost in Week 4 at home to the Bills 16-0. New England had to start third-string quarterback Jacoby Brissett, who had a botched thumb. It was so bad in Foxborough that head coach Bill Belichick was spiking Microsoft Surfaces like Rob Gronkowski.

Now that Patriots have their superstar signal caller back in the fold, who is going to beat them? Probably nobody. It’s not that the Bills are a bad team, but they are no match for an angry Brady under center.

Brady has rarely gone deep since Randy Moss last played for the club nearly a decade ago. He’s been more of a dink-and-dunker since the 2008 NFL season. While he has had great success with the double tight end packages, New England rarely attacks the field outside the hash marks vertically. If Brady and Hogan build on this rapport, this is your Super Bowl LI champion right here.
