Patriots Exhale: How New-New England Can Handle the Chiefs

The REAL THING Patriots Podcast

The Patriots are back to their winning ways, and the Chiefs come to Foxboro on a roll. Something's gotta give. Let's dive into the details, how New England can chop down Kansas City... There's a very specific way that Patrick Mahomes must be played. Matt Chatham walks through the "musts" in overcoming this Andy Reid offense with all its different weapons and an electric young quarterback. There's a formula, and it takes disciplined play. If you stray from containing these certain elements as a defense, you have no chance. Jacksonville's gameplan and execution provides a very nice recent example of what not to do... As explosive as the Chiefs offense has been, the Pats' O has just as much, if not more, potential as they integrate Julian Edelman and Josh Gordon into a group that's growing with their new stud running back, Sony Michel. The biggest mismatch of the day may very well be New England's offense vs the Chiefs struggling (and suddenly banged up) defense. This is gonna be a fun one, let's get into the dirt... Enjoy the show!
