New England Patriots
Tom Brady (Quarterback): Brady is having a magnificent season. This may have not been his best game but the Patriots could have run up the score if they saw the need. Brady completed 26 of 39 pass attempts for 299 yards, 2 touchdowns, and an interception. The Patriots ran the ball a ton in this game so expect more from Brady against the Giants.
Rob Gronkowski (Tight End): Gronk had a very quiet day as it turned out the Patriots really didn't need him to beat the Redskins. Gronkowski only hauled in 4 out of 5 targets for 47 yards.
Danny Amendola/Julian Edelman/ Brandon LaFell (Wide Receivers): Amendola has fallen out of favor in the New England offense with Brady choosing to target Brandon LaFell more. Amendola reeled in 4 out of 5 targets for a measly 24 yards while Brandon LaFell caught 5 of his 9 targets for 102 yards. The only wide receiver with a touchdown was Brady's favorite target Julian Edelman. Edelman caught 5 out of 8 targets for 55 yards and his lone touchdown.
Dion Lewis/LeGarrette Blount (Running Backs): Another one bites the dust, seems to be a theme with running backs this year. Dion Lewis is now out for the season after tearing his ACL in this week 9 contest. He only had 4 rushing attempts for 14 yards and caught 4 of his 5 targets for 39 yards before the injury occurred. Blount finished off the Redskins on the ground carrying the ball 29 times for for 129 yards and a touchdown.
Washington Redskins
Pierre Garcon (Wide Receiver): Garcon had a solid day in PPR leagues. He reeled in 4 of his 8 targets for 70 yards.
Alfred Morris/Matt Jones/Chris Thompson (Running Backs): Jones was clearly the lead back here with his 11 carries however he only gained 27 yards and caught 2 out of 3 targets for 17 yards. Morris had a worse day only rushing 4 times for 10 yards and Thompson was relegated to passing downs hauling in 2 out of 4 targets for 21 yards.
