FOXBOROUGH, Mass. (AP) – The reviews came quickly and unanimously.

“Brady’s Better!” the crowd chanted midway through the fourth quarter.

“I stunk,” Peyton Manning said minutes after struggling through the 16th meeting between two of the greatest quarterbacks in NFL history.

All that was true Sunday in the meeting between the AFC’s two top teams.

Tom Brady outplayed Manning and the New England Patriots won 43-21 for their fifth straight victory, ending the Denver Broncos’ winning streak at four.
