Does Tom Brady get big garbage time numbers? Sort of. Also Garcon leads WRs for the week.
In all fairness, most of the quarterbacks ahead of Brady on this list are guys playing on losing teams; the only two quarterbacks who play on a winning team and sit ahead of Brady on both charts are Eli Manning and Jason Campbell, and Campbell’s had a tenuous grasp on his job. So the answer to the question really depends on what the standard is. If you’re wondering whether Brady gets a disproportionate amount of blowout yardage relative to other quarterbacks, the answer is not significantly so. If the question is whether he gets more opportunities in blowouts relative to other quarterbacks in the MVP race, though? Considering Michael Vick, Peyton Manning, Aaron Rodgers, or Philip Rivers have a below-average percentage of their pass attempts coming in blowouts, the answer is actually yes
