FOXBOROUGH, Mass. -- Tom Brady is coming home this week, and hes bringing an offense that is playing some of its best football of the season.Brady was admittedly a little rusty in his first game back from a four-game Deflategate suspension, but still managed a 406-yard, three-touchdown performance in the Patriots 33-13 win over the Browns.Outside of his own individual efforts, he said Wednesday that he was more pleased with how many people got involved as the Patriots prepare to host Cincinnati on Sunday.Yeah, there were a lot of contributions from a lot of places, and I think thats what makes a good offense, Brady said.Not just always throwing it to one or two guys, but spreading the ball around and throwing the ball where theyre not.Tight end Martellus Bennett was the recipient of each of Bradys touchdown passes, with tight end Rob Gronkowski and receiver Chris Hogan both having 100-yard receiving games. It was the first time New England has had two 100-yard receivers in a game since 2014.It was also the first 100-yard game for Hogan, who had a diving 43-yard catch that set up the Patriots third touchdown.Its one of those things where you always gotta be running. You never know when the balls gonna come, especially on those deep routes, Hogan said.For me Im always trying to run hard. If you run your routes well and youre getting open you trust the quarterback and the offense.New Englands efficiency showed up particularly on third down, where it was 9 for 17. The Patriots hadnt been over 50 percent since their Week 1 win over Arizona.Bennett has been active in the offense all season, though he was primarily used as a blocker in the red zone during the first four games of the season. But even before posting his third multi-touchdown game of his career he said he was finding comfort in his first year in New England.The best thing about it is everything matters, Bennett said last week.dddddddddddd Making a good block is praised just as much as making a great catch. So that makes it a bit easier because theres not a bigger emphasis on any phase of the game. Its like every single part, everyone cares about.That includes coach Bill Belichick, who said he hasnt been surprised by how well Bennett has been able to fit into what they are trying to do because of the flexibility hes shown since arriving.I think this is about what we thought it would be, Belichick said. His intelligence gives him a lot of versatility.Hes done that before in his career, multiple times, and I think thats what hes given us. Each team has its own personality and chemistry. I dont think theres any way you can orchestrate that as a coach, nor would I try to.Even more exciting for Brady may be that Gronkowski seems to be as healthy as hes been all season as he works back from a tender hamstring that caused him to miss the first two games of the season.After slowing increasing his playing time each week since his return, Gronk played a season-high 81 percent of the offensive snaps against Cleveland.Brady said he always tries to put in work on his throwing mechanics and that it was a focus both during the offseason and during his month-long suspension.I think thats translated into a lot of throws, but hopefully I can hit those ones down the field. Those are big ones. They change the whole field positon, he said.If you throw a 50-yarder, its five first downs. It shows up on the stat sheet a little differently, but the production is great when youre able to kind of hit those home run balls.---AP NFL websites: http://pro32.ap.org and http://twitter.com/AP-NFL---Follow Kyle Hightower on Twitter at http://www.twitter.com/khightower Discount NFL Jerseys Cheap NFL Jerseys China Wholesale Black NFL Jerseys Cheap NFL T-shirts Wholesale NFL Autographed Jerseys Wholesale Jerseys Cheap Jerseys Online NFL Jerseys From China Nike NFL Jerseys China Cheap NFL T-shirts Wholesale NFL Camo Jerseys Jerseys From China China Womens NFL Jerseys China Jerseys Cheap Cheap Jerseys Free Shipping ' ' '
