Tom Brady is a God (Patriots Update - October 14)

So, I was thinking today, what are the chances that Tom Brady will break Peyton's Touchdown record from 2004?
Appearantly, the odds are in Brady's Favor. Here's a statistical Breakdown of the Two QB's after 6 games in their season:
Tom Brady
Stats through 6 games:
21 TDs, 2 INT, 1,771 Yards
Wow, this is really impressive. Just looking at this, he's got 30 TDs and 3,000 yards in the bag. What's really impressive is how he has thrown only two Interceptions so far. That shows that his stats will continue to consistantly exceed everyone's expectations. He's staying on top of his game, and
On pace for:
56 TDs, 4.6 INT, 4722.6 Yards
Holy crap. That's all I can say about this. 50+ TD's, less than 5 INT's, and the potential to throw for 5,000 yards if he has a couple more games where he is lights out. This probably will happen because even if Maroney comes back, the passing attack is just as effective as the running game is for most teams. They ran over 70 offensive plays on Sunday. IF this even comes close to true, he's got the MVP award in his back pocket.
2004 Peyton Manning
through 6 games:
17 TDs, 3 INT, 1,689 Yards
This is still sick. He's almost at 20 TD's and 2,000 yards. Especially with the type of production the Colts were getting offensively in 2004, the record is within reach. He really deserved this MVP award, and it was obvious through 6 games.
On pace for:
45.3 TDs, 8 INT, 4504 Yards
Whoa. This is a sick season. An MVP season, in fact. Not a record breaking one, but an absolutely amazing one. This would have been one of the best seasons for a QB in history even if he didn't break Marino's record.
Finished with 49 TDs, 10 INT, 4557 Yards
This shows two things. 1. His production went up as the season progressed. Good news for Brady in this way because if things are getting better and better by the game, then Brady should tear up the record books this year.
Conclusion
Tom Brady is god. Plain and simple. He's got the MVP award in his pocket, and is off to the best start for a QB statistically since, well, ever. I can't say how excited this makes me to think Brady will break Manning's record this year. Manning is always been thought of as the Enemy by Pats fans, and Manning-Brady is always going to be a debate as to who is better from now till their both old and gone from the NFL.
