A couple of weeks ago, critics and fans were writing the Tom Brady-Bill Belichick's New England Patriots dynasty as done. However, it just doesn't seem to be the case as the Patriots blaze past the Buffalo Bills, 37-22.

This win improves Brady's continuing winning record against the Bills, upping it to 23-2.

Brady commented that he wasn't really sure what the reason for the streak against the Bills is historically. He adds though that he has a lot of respect for the team, saying that they play hard every time they play out.

"I think we just come out on the winning end. It's good to be on the winning end," Brady said.

Since the start of the game, the Patriots took charge of the lead and did not let up until the end.

The first quarter was uneventful, with neither team scoring.

Brady started off the scoring in the second quarter though, with a one yard touchdown pass to Tim Wright. Stephen Gostkowski also contributed a couple of field goals, while Bills quarterback Kyle Orton completes a seven yard touchdown pass to Robert Woods to get his team on the board.

The third quarter was back-and-forth, with Brady and Gostkowski each getting more points for the Patriots.

By the end of the fourth quarter, the Patriots are up by 15 after a pair of touchdown passes Tom Brady completes to Brandon LaFell.

This improves the Patriots' record to 4-2, giving them the sole lead in the AFC East.

Brady threw four touchdowns and got 361 from 27 of 37. He also becomes only the fifth quarterback in National Football League (NFL) history with 60 300-yard games.

While the Patriots achieved victory, it was not without cost. Linebacker Jerod Mayo injured his knee in the first quarter and did not come back for the rest of the game.

Running back Stevan Ridley injured his right knee in the third, while Guard Dan Connolly sustained a concussion.

Belichick said that the injuries would be evaluated, but referred to Mayo's injury as bittersweet.
