Frequently Asked Questions
How did the Lions beat the Patriots earlier this season?
The Lions beat the Patriots 26-10 in Week 3 by double teaming Rob Gronkowski and taking him out of the equation. They dared Tom Brady to throw to his other targets like Chris Hogan, Phillip Dorsett, and James White, which resulted in an effective beat down.
When did the Patriots acquire Josh Gordon from the Browns?
The Patriots acquired Josh Gordon from the Cleveland Browns on September 17th. Gordon has been slowly acclimating to the complex New England offense and his snap percentage has been increasing over recent games.
What did Kyle Fuller do in the Bears' previous game?
Kyle Fuller had an outstanding performance last week with two interceptions, two passes defended, and seven total tackles. He's quietly having a solid year for the Bears defense.
Why wasn't Josh Gordon available when the Lions beat the Patriots?
Josh Gordon wasn't on the Patriots roster yet when they lost to the Lions in Week 3, since he was acquired on September 17th. His absence left the Patriots without a key weapon to take pressure off Gronkowski when he was being double teamed.
What blueprint do the Bears have for beating the Patriots?
The Bears have a similar offensive blueprint to the Chiefs, who put up 40 points on the Patriots. A solid run game, effective defense, and mistake-free football could allow the Bears to win at Soldier Field.
