Kansas City Chiefs podcast: Expect a shootout against the Patriots
The Kansas City Chiefs will be tested once again as they head to New England in Week 7 to take on the Patriots. Here is how they can come out with a win.
The Kansas City Chiefs have been tested every week of the 2018 season up to this point. Each week the team has shown that they are worthy of being top of not only the AFC West but the AFC as a whole. The hard schedule continues as Kansas City will face yet another Super Bowl contender in Week 7 when they travel to take on the New England Patriots in Foxborough on Sunday night.
New England started off the season slow which is normal for New England. It’s not uncommon in the last few years for the Patriots to start off with a loss or two that has the nation wondering if we have finally seen the end of the reign from Bill Belichick and Tom Brady. However, the Patriots look to get their season back on track in this upcoming game and make a statement over a Chiefs team that not only embarrassed them on their banner night last season but looks to be the team to beat in the AFC.
Tom Brady has received a better supporting cast around him with Julian Edelman returning from injury and suspension. Edelman has been Brady’s most reliable wide receiver for a long time now and with one game under his belt, Edelman looks to prove that he’s fully back. Another addition the Patriots have given Brady is former Cleveland Browns wide receiver, Josh Gordon.
Both receivers are still getting some playing time under their belt, but will likely be on point against a Chiefs defense that has struggled so far this season. Despite a good game against the Jacksonville Jaguars last week, the defense is going to see likely the best offense in the AFC outside of their own.
