Plus 150 turnover margin since 2001

[Seanzayyy]

Per Mike Reiss, the Pats have posted an impressive +150 turnover differential since Brady became the starting QB in 2001!

The next best margin is +60 by the Packers. It's incredible that the Pats have more than DOUBLED that rate.

For funsies: the Raiders are listed as the NFL's worst since then with a -83 differential.

Wow!!!

Combination of Brady being one of the best at protecting the ball and BB's bend dont break and create turrovers/wait for the other teams mistakes philosophy.

The Pats are on pace for a +40 turnover margin this season although that is likely not to pan out that way by the end of the season.

This team has always been good at creating turnovers. Even in recent years they've been either #1 or close to it. The problem recently is that they haven't had a very good turnover ratio in the postseason. Certainly nowhere near as good as they've had in the regular season. Obviously the competition is superior in the playoffs, but still - it would be nice if the D could create turnovers in January like Seattle's does.
