New England Patriots: 3 bold predictions for 2019 opener
By Sam Minton
1. Josh Gordon will have 100 receiving yards
We haven’t seen a ton of Josh Gordon in 2019, but I think he will start the season off with a bang.
The main focus for the Steelers defense should be on Julian Edelman and James White. These guys can tear apart defenses with the ball in their hands. This should open up some opportunities for other players.
Gordon should be able to take advantage of his matchup and have a big game. I think we will see Gordon have over 100 yards and a touchdown to boot.
I think we will see Tom Brady try and hit Gordon deep early on. Gordon is one of the Patriots premier deep threats and they connected a decent amount in 2018. That should continue in 2019.
If Josh Gordon can stay on the field for the entire season he will put up major numbers and that will all start in Week 1
