The like the Chiefs Sunday, the Patriots are the best team in the history of football when they're home at Foxboro, but they can be beaten on the road. They probably have a way of cheating in Gillette stadium. The whole thing with beating the Patriots is the coaching strategy. You have to have good schemes.
It amazes me how teams let the Patriots destroy them with 6 yard passes, when the Patriots don't have any speed threats down field. The Chargers defensive strategy, staying with their deep zone, was idiotic against the Patriots. I would double team Edelman and blitz often. You have to put some pressure on Brady and make them keep a back in for protection, otherwise he keeps throwing those short passes to the running backs.
