New England has not played well, and are fortunate to be 2-1. They face a Chiefs team that is getting healthy with the extra rest and Charles will play.
I'm not sure what to make of the Patriots right now. Belichick and Brady are still there, and the Pats are 2-1 out of the gate. But there are some items of concern here, and it's at least conceivable that there's a bit of decline taking place on this roster. The public all on the New England here with 62% of all bets placed - yet the odds makers have gotten so much Sharp money on the Chiefs that they did something they never like to do and that is come off the magic number of 3 trying to get some money back on the Patriots at 2 1/2. I like KC at home in a rare MNF appearance and we'll back the home dog.
