3. Secondary success

Now, what if the New England Patriots front seven fails to show up? New England’s secondary needs to be on top of Tyreek Hill.

Hill has torn apart the Patriots secondary before. He has elite speed and it seems the Patriots struggle to keep up with him. In his last game versus the Patriots, Hill had 7 catches for 133 yards and a touchdown.

Stephon Gilmore has another challenge this week as he will most likely be on Hill. The Patriots need Gilmore to have a great game and maybe even an interception.

Jason McCourty has been playing surprisingly well so with his help I think the Patriots can stifle the Chiefs offense. Kansas City will still put up some points, but if the secondary has a great game it would take some of the pressure off of New England’s offense.

Next. Tom Brady preparing for Week 6 shootout. dark

Week 6 will without a doubt be a great game (especially if you like offense). Hopefully, the Patriots will walk away with the win.
