That can't be right. I just read that you can replace Brady as QB of the NE Patriots and the offense would keep chugging along.

Maybe if the Patriots hadn't actually played 5 games during the month of October... but they did.

(Though the first one, on October 1st, was the final game of week 4 and was probably counted when giving Brady September's award, and Reiss didn't think of that).

20 TDs in a month is a new record.
Or were you talking about most player of the month awards in a season?

Whatever it is, its hard to see it not being 4 by the end of December.

The Patriots DID play five games in October, BUT...

It was my understanding that for the purpose of "player of the month" games are categorized based on the Sunday of the month in which they are played.

I believe this was specifically discussed when Brady was named POTM for October and it included his performance on October 1st.

So the game on October 1st was NOT part of this award.
