By Sam Minton
2. Sony Michel will have 15 touchdowns
Once again Sony Michel’s absence for some part of the regular season has to be taken into consideration. He was able to have an amazing season and he only started 8 games.

One of the only areas where New England and Michel struggled was in the red zone. At times it seemed like there was a force field around the end zone.
Michel has the perfect game for the red zone. He should just be able to run right up the middle and cruise in.
This season I think that Michel’s red zone woes will go away. The Patriots will be relying on him to score and with his work in 2018 he deserves the majority of the carries.
When pairing the fact that he missed a good chunk of the regular season and struggled in the red zone I think we will see Michel’s touchdown output increase quite a lot in 2019.
