Tom Brady was close to perfect this year, with his precision passing and leadership of the New England Patriots, he is now the Offensive Player of the Year. He didn't run away with it like he did in 2007; however, his numbers this year were enough to earn him the title for the 2nd time in 4 years
With a record setting string of 355 passes without an interception, he received 21 votes from a nationwide panel of 50 media members to edge out Philadelphia's Michael Vick....Okay, a landslide (Vick received 11 votes).
Tom Terrific threw 36 touchdowns and only four interceptions. (In 2007, Brady threw for 50 touchdowns as the Patriots went undefeated during the regular season).
Even without star receivers, the New England Patriot continue to win, set records, and send players to Pro Bowls, as well as win honors for the season.
In 2010, Brady lead the NFL with a 111 passer rating, which is 5th all-time; Brady's 65.9 completion percentage was 2nd to starting AFC Pro-Bowler Philip Rivers of the San Diego Chargers; however, the Patriots ended their post season with a loss to the NY Jets, after Brady threw for 3,900 yards during the regular season
Notes: Tom Terrific is the only quarterback and active player to win the Offensive Player of the Year award twice.
Brady is the 6th multiple winner of the award; the others are Earl Campbell, Jerry Rice, Barry Sanders, Terrell Davis, and Marshall Faulk. (Campbell (1978-80) and Faulk (1999-2001) won the award 3-times in their career).
