3. Get Sony Michel going

This season hasn’t been a great one for Sony Michel. The running back has struggled to gain yards and looks like he is coming down to earth after an amazing rookie season.

Michel has been able to find the end zone and isn’t having any issues close to the goal line, but he only has 106 yards this season. Heading into Week 4 that number should be much higher.

I want to see New England get Michel going in Week 4. He needs to get 20+ carries and hopefully get his 1st 100-yard rushing game of the season.

The Patriots need Michel to replicate his rookie season. Without a proper running game, teams can just focus on stopping Julian Edelman and Josh Gordon (but that’s still not an easy task).

Next. What Antonio Brown’s release means (and what it doesn’t). dark

If the New England Patriots are able to do these things they will definitely be walking out with the victory on Sunday.
