First Career Win Tom Brady became the starting quarterback for New England in the second game of the 2001 season. Facing the Indianapolis Colts, Brady showed the Patriots why giving him the job was a good decision. Brady has reinforced this over 251 career starts over eighteen seasons. For the game, Brady completed 56.5% of his passes in the start, throwing the ball for 168 yards, no touchdowns or interceptions, as he guided the Pats easily to a 44–13 victory over the Colts for his first career win.

In his first career QB start in the NFL, Brady does more than enough to earn his first win against the Indianapolis Colts on September 30, 2001.
