In 2007, Brady was named the NFL's Most Valuable Player, setting then-NFL records for most touchdown passes in a season (50) and the highest touchdown-interception differential (+42). His marks of most games with three or more touchdown passes (12), most touchdown passes in a month (20 in October 2007), and highest completion percentage in a game (92.9 percent on Jan. 12, 2008) are still NFL records. Brady's 117.2 passer rating in 2007 is the fourth highest of all-time, while his 4,806 passing yards were the third highest single-season total in league history up to that point.
In 2007, Brady contributed to the Patriots establishment of several then-NFL single-season team records, including most points scored in a season (589), largest point differential in a season (+315) and most touchdowns in a season (75). The Patriots became the first team in NFL history to complete a 16-0 regular season and tied the league's single-season mark with 18 overall victories.
Brady and receiver Randy Moss set an NFL single-season record in 2007 for most touchdown passes between a passer and a receiver (23), with Moss' 23 touchdown catches also setting a league record.
Brady completed over 70 percent of his passes in four consecutive games during the 2001 season and joined an exclusive club of quarterbacks who accomplished the feat. He joined Joe Montana (8 games, 1989), Troy Aikman (4, 1995), Steve Young (4, 1993) and Sammy Baugh (4, 1945). He repeated the accomplishment in 2007.
