The Patriots are 3.5-point favorites to beat the Chiefs on Sunday night
Womens Phillip Dorsett Jersey , and that might be a little surprising, considering that the Chiefs are 5-0 and the Patriots are 3-2. But if that does
surprise you, perhaps you don’t know just how commonplace it is for the Patriots
to be favored with Tom Brady at quarterback.Sunday’s game is the 56th
consecutive game (counting playoffs) with Brady as quarterback that the Patriots
have been favored, which is an all-time record, according to ESPN.Brady’s record
breaks that of Kurt Warner, whose Rams were favored in 55 consecutive games from
1999 to 2003. Before Warner the record belonged to Steve Young, whose 49ers were
favored in 44 straight games from 1994 to 1996, and before that the record was
held by Joe Montana, whose 49ers were favored in 37 consecutive games from 1989
to 1993.When will the Patriots’ streak end? It could end as soon as next
week
Youth Dont'a Hightower Jersey , with the Patriots visiting Chicago. If the Bears blow out the Dolphins on Sunday the way they did the Buccaneers in
their previous game, and if the Patriots lose to the Chiefs, it’s possible that
the Bears could be favored over the Patriots, and that Brady’s streak could come
to an end.Resetting the Patriots’ wide receiver depth chart after the Josh
Gordon trade The New England Patriots have made a total of 28 transactions at
the wide receiver position since the start of the 2018 league year, but none has
been bigger – at least on paper – than the latest: the Patriots have acquired
Cleveland Browns wide receiver Josh Gordon for a conditional fifth-round draft
pick earlier today. The move gives New England a hugely talented option and
improves the team’s overall offensive depth.That being said, let’s reset the
team’s wide receiver group after the acquisition – and after the team also let
go fellow ex-Brown Corey Coleman:53-man rosterThe Patriots’ top three wide
receivers have been set since training camp, so it will be interesting to see
how Gordon will fit in. He undoubtably has the skill set to serve as the number
one option at the position but will need to get on the same page with
quarterback Tom Brady on the fly. If he is up to the challenge, New England
could just have acquired a game-changing player at a position that has been
inconsistent through two games this year.Before getting into any projections,
however

as their one-two punch at wide receiver at the moment, with Cordarrelle
Patterson a third option so far primarily used in special packages to take
advantage of his athleticism. Matthew Slater, meanwhile, continues to serve as a
special teamer that has virtually no offensive impact.Practice squadWhile Riley
McCarron started the regular season on the active roster, he was released after
muffing a punt in the season opener against the Houston Texans. McCarron went
unclaimed and was therefore able to join the Patriots’ practice squad. With
Gordon now on board, the chances of the second-year man getting elevated once
again appear to be closely tied to his ability and consistency in the return
game.Reserve/suspendedNew England’s number one wide receiver is still sidelined
because of a four-game suspension. Once Julian Edelman returns, he will add
another dimension to the Patriots’ aerial attack – a player that can get open
quicker than anyone the team currently has under contract. As such, he is again
projected to be a core member of the team’s offensive arsenal.The Patriots’
offensive attack, of course
http://www.thepatriotsfootballauthentic.com/marcus-cannon-jersey-authentic , consists of more than just the wide receiver position. The team also has the
best tight end in the NFL under contract – Rob Gronkowski ��� and a productive
group of running backs led by the three-headed attack that is James White, Rex
Burkhead, and first-round rookie Sony Michel. Even before acquiring Gordon, New
England had some serious talent and upside available. Now, the group becomes
even stronger – if Gordon can live up to the hype.
