Tom Brady morphed into Tom Cruise just hours before kickoff Sunday.

Maybe not literally. But that's exactly what the New England Patriots quarterback was going for when he dropped his usual gameday Facebook post before facing the New York Jets at MetLife Stadium.

Brady channeled his inner Cruise and blessed the Internet with the following Photoshop job, which shows the Patriots QB dressed up like Maverick (played by Cruise) from the movie "Top Gun."

Jets ... Top Gun. Get it? Of course you do.

Tommy wins again.
