The Patriots are 3.5-point favorites to beat the Chiefs on Sunday night
Womens Phillip Dorsett Jersey , and that might be a little surprising, considering that the Chiefs are 5-0 and the Patriots are 3-2. But if that does surprise you, perhaps you don't know just how commonplace it is for the Patriots to be favored with Tom Brady at quarterback.Sunday's game is the 56th consecutive game (counting playoffs) with Brady as quarterback that the Patriots have been favored, which is an all-time record, according to ESPN.Brady's record breaks that of Kurt Warner, whose Rams were favored in 55 consecutive games from 1999 to 2003. Before Warner the record belonged to Steve Young, whose 49ers were favored in 44 straight games from 1994 to 1996, and before that the record was held by Joe Montana, whose 49ers were favored in 37 consecutive games from 1989 to 1993.When will the Patriots' streak end? It could end as soon as next week

If the Bears blow out the Dolphins on Sunday the way they did the Buccaneers in their previous game, and if the Patriots lose to the Chiefs, it's possible that the Bears could be favored over the Patriots, and that Brady's streak could come to an end.Resetting the Patriots' wide receiver depth chart after the Josh Gordon trade The New England Patriots have made a total of 28 transactions at the wide receiver position since the start of the 2018 league year, but none has been bigger – at least on paper – than the latest: the Patriots have acquired Cleveland Browns wide receiver Josh Gordon for a conditional fifth-round draft pick earlier today. The move gives New England a hugely talented option and improves the team's overall offensive depth.That being said, let's reset the team's wide receiver group after the acquisition – and after the team also let go fellow ex-Brown Corey Coleman:53-man rosterThe Patriots' top three wide receivers have been set since training camp, so it will be interesting to see how Gordon will fit in. He undoubtably has the skill set to serve as the number one option at the position but will need to get on the same page with quarterback Tom Brady on the fly. If he is up to the challenge, New England could just have acquired a game-changing player at a position that has been inconsistent through two games this year.Before getting into any projections, however
http://www.thepatriotsfootballauthentic.com/patrick-chung-jersey-authentic , let's stick with what we know: the Patriots have Chris Hogan and Phillip Dorsett as their one-two punch at wide receiver at the moment, with Cordarrelle Patterson a third option so far primarily used in special packages to take advantage of his athleticism. Matthew Slater, meanwhile, continues to serve as a special teamer that has virtually no offensive impact.Practice squadWhile Riley McCarron started the regular season on the active roster, he was released after muffing a punt in the season opener against the Houston Texans. McCarron went unclaimed and was therefore able to join the Patriots' practice squad. With Gordon now on board, the chances of the second-year man getting elevated once again appear to be closely tied to his ability and consistency in the return game.Reserve/suspendedNew England's number one wide receiver is still sidelined because of a four-game suspension. Once Julian Edelman returns, he will add another dimension to the Patriots' aerial attack – a player that can get open quicker than anyone the team currently has under contract. As such, he is again projected to be a core member of the team's offensive arsenal.The Patriots' offensive attack, of course

The team also has the best tight end in the NFL under contract – Rob Gronkowski – and a productive group of running backs led by the three-headed attack that is James White, Rex Burkhead, and first-round rookie Sony Michel. Even before acquiring Gordon, New England had some serious talent and upside available. Now, the group becomes even stronger – if Gordon can live up to the hype.
