Tom Brady and the Patriots routed the Bengals and quieted the doubters.

The three-time Super Bowl winner finally looked like a quarterback who has thrown for 50,000 yards in his career as New England dominated the NFL’s last unbeaten team, beating Cincinnati 43-17 Sunday night.

Just six days earlier, the Patriots lost to the Kansas City Chiefs 41-14, unleashing criticism that Brady had regressed and lacked talented teammates to help him.
