Brady threw for 294 yards and a touchdown as the New England Patriots won their sixth straight NFL game with a convincing 3117 victory over Aaron Rodgers and the Green Bay Packers on Sunday. Brady earned bragging rights over Rodgers after winning one of the most-anticipated prime-time duels between two quarterbacks who have won five NFL Most Valuable Player awards between them.

Elsewhere the New Orleans Saints handed the Los Angeles Rams their first defeat of the season, thwarting the Rams’ second-half rally in a 45-35 triumph. (AFP)
