The New England Patriots set team records for points in a game (59) and total net yards (619) in a 59-0 victory against the Tennessee Titans in snowy conditions at Gillette Stadium. The Patriots 59-point victory ties the largest margin of victory by any team since the 1970 AFL-NFL merger, equaling the L.A. Rams’ 59-point win over Patriots 59 Atlanta on Dec. 4, 1976 (59-0). QB Tom Brady completed 29-of-34 pass attempts for 380 yards with six touchdown Ti ta ns 0 passes, wide receivers Wes Welker (10-150-2 TDs) and Randy Moss (8-129-3 TDs) both went over 100 yards receiving, and RB Laurence Maroney added 123 yards rushing on the ground. Brady had 345 yards passing in the first half alone, and set an NFL record with five touchdown passes in the second quarter. For his contributions, Brady earned AFC Offensive Player of the Week honors for the second time on the young 2009 season. New England built a 45-0 halftime lead, the largest halftime lead in NFL history.

What They Said: QB Tom Brady (On the Patriots’ historic output) “You know, some days out there when it’s snowy like that, it’s actually an advantage for the offense. Today was one of those days because we had good footing and it’s just fun to be a part of it. I was saying, when you see the weather forecast on Thursday, you’re kind of [angry] and then once the day of the game comes around, everyone is excited because you’re out there and you’re like, ‘This is football. This is how it should be.’”

WR Wes Welker (On why the Patriots seem to play so well in the snow) “I know Coach [Belichick] does a really good job of coaching us up: what’s good, what’s bad, making sure we have good footing, the right cleats, things like that. And understanding that we need to be in the right type of plays and being able to come off breaks and things like that are going to be a little bit different under the conditions. We need to make sure that in the kicking game we’re taking care of our responsibilities and things like that.”

Head Coach Bill Belichick (On the Patriots’ level of execution) “[It’s] good players. The players were the ones out there playing today and they did a good job. They kept their feet. They handled the ball well. They handled it cleanly. We missed some tackles on defense, but we made some. We made some plays defensively, turning the ball over. Some of those were tough catches, good plays, but we got them. The credit goes to the players; they did a great job.”
