Pats are 3-1 verses these five playoff contenders and therefore own tie breaker advantages against Denver, Cincy, Indy.....but not KC....so lets take a look at KC's schedule
@ Oakland
Denver
@ Arizona
Oakland
@ Pittsburgh
San Diego
............................Four playoff contending teams....and a Division 4 team (twice)
KC is a team to be feared. Second best defense (points given up). Plus 70 points (points for/points against)
On Offense.....
4th....yds rushing
1st....rushing TDs
31st...passing yds
Tied 28th ...passing TDs
On Defense
8th .....total yds
1st......total yds passing
26th.....total yds rushing
Beyond the beat down KC inflicted on NE early in the season.....based on the stats above, NE does not match up that well vs KC's strengths and vice versa.
NE's secondary strength is not all that important against a team that barely passes.
KC's secondary strength aligns well vs NE's passing game.
Losses to Tenn, Denver, San Fran.
Current 5 game win streak
A future game that may never happen.......I would prefer NE not have to rematch KC...especially on the road.
