See when NE set the scoring record, I remember watching the NE/Baltimore game, and I do think B'more went after Brady quite a lot. I think it'd be interesting to see stats on the number of blitzes that the NE o-line faced that year. Also, in 2006, Brady had no #1 receiver, while he was still Tom Brady, I'm sure the defenses must have not feared the likes of Reche Caldwell and Ben Watson; and probably went after the QB.
