The elusive Tom Brady.

With the Patriots trudging through a both literal and figurative slog Sunday afternoon against the San Francisco 49ers, Brady extended New England’s lead with an uncharacteristically Brady play.

After first spinning out of a would-be sack, Brady scrambled out of the pocket and floated a pass to Danny Amendola in the back of the end zone. The play left Brady on his back with his fingers pointed to the rain-soaked sky. It also brought Patriots owner Robert Kraft to his feet in celebration.
