Patriots' defense last night

It made no sense why it took us 3 quarters to do something different and take the RB we drafted who is supposed to be good in space and, wait for it this is a crazy idea I can't believe it worked, put him in space instead of just pounding him up the middle. Not surprisingly the 2 best runs for CEH of the night were toss plays to the outside. Do that with mixing in some jet sweeps to keep defenses honest and that might help. Not "run up the middle every second down".

I also think it's obvious that unless they have to change it up the Chiefs are trying to win games showing the least amount of stuff on tape possible. This is about as vanilla as I can remember the Chiefs being on playcalling.
