FOXBOROUGH Rashad Fenton Kansas City Chiefs Jerseys , Mass. (AP) —ning in Gillette Stadium during the Bill Belichick and Tom Brady era.Add Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes to the list.The Patriots had their best offensive night of the 2018 season, amassing 500 total yards while getting another clutch performance from Brady, their surefire Hall of Fame quarterback, in a 43-40 win over the Chiefs on Sunday night .Brady passed for 340 yards and touchdown while running for another score and helped set up Stephen Gostkowski’s 28-yard, game-winning field goal as New England beat back a frantic second-half rally by the Chiefs.New England’s third straight win was Brady’s 200th victory as a starting quarter, tops all-time. He also passed former teammate Adam Vinatieri for most career wins in the regular season and playoffs combined with 227.“I think we have a lot of clutch players,” Brady said. “I think we have no problem grinding it out. That’s what the football season’s all about. I don’t think we’ve seen our best. I think we can play a lot better and I think that’s what we plan to do.”The Patriots have now won three straight games since starting the season 1-2. And, at least offensively, they seem to be finding a groove following a slow start that included lopsided losses to Jacksonville and Detroit.New England now has scored 30 or more points in three consecutive games.It is the first blemish of the season for the Chiefs (5-1) and first loss as a starter for Kansas City’s 23-year-old QB Mahomes Kansas City Chiefs Jerseys Stitched , who started the game slowly before rallying his team from a 15-point, first-half deficit to take a late lead.He threw a pair of early interceptions , but regained confidence down the stretch leading touchdown drives with the same improbable plays he’s been pulling off all season. He kept quieting a nervous New England crowd.The Chiefs tied the game at 40 via Mahomes’ 75-yard TD pass to Tyreek Hill. But they left too much time on the clock for Brady, who marched his team down the field to set up the eventual winning kick.“They had a good game plan,” Mahomes said. “They threw a lot of pressure at us, a lot of different, and I just tried to stay within myself. I missed some throws even when there was pressure that we could have scored on and I feel like as the game went on I just kept making the reads and throwing the ball and I started connecting on the ones later.”The Chiefs imploded with Alex Smith under center last season, losing six of their final 11 after a 5-0 start. But tight end Travis Kelce said he feels like this team has lots of room to grow and has a different mentality than it did this time last season.“You got to love the way the team fought,” he said. “It is crappy losing and nobody likes to lose. It is unfortunate that the team that ended up with the ball won. It is something to learn from and you have to start fast.”GOOD AND BAD HISTORYMahomes ended his night passing for 352 yards and four touchdowns Rashad Fenton Jersey nfl draft , setting a Chiefs’ record for five straight 300-yard passing games.But Mahomes still joined a dubious club.Quarterbacks under 25 years old are now 0-24 all-time in Foxborough during the regular-season against the Patriots.JUST A NUMBERThe Patriots have allowed 40-plus points in a regular season game just three times in the last five seasons — all to the Chiefs.Until Sunday, New England was 0-6 when allowing that many points in a game, including the playoffs, in the Belichick era.SUPER SONYThe Patriots seem to have found a jewel in rookie running back Sony Michel.Michel rushed for 106 yards and two touchdowns in Sunday’s victory, his second 100-yard game this season. He also had 98 yards in New England’s win over Indianapolis.He has now scored a rushing touchdown in three straight games. The last Patriots rookie with a rushing touchdown in three straight games was BenJarvus Green-Ellis, who did so in four straight in 2008.NO PUNTS, NO PENALTIESThe Patriots finished the game without punting and were not charged with a penalty. It is the first time in the Super Bowl era that an NFL team played an entire game without punting or being charged a penalty.It was the sixth time in franchise history that the Patriots were not charged with a penalty and the fifth time in franchise history that the Patriots did not punt in a regular season game.

They can now turn their attention to the undrafted free agent market (TRACKER) as they try to continue to build their roster.Let’s take a look at the Chiefs’ draft class of 2019:Round 2 (56) WR Mecole HardmanA clear attempt to replace the speed that Tyreek Hill possesses. This was the response to the inevitable release of the Chiefs receiver. Hardman ran a 4.33 40-yard dash at the NFL Combine. Hardman averaged 15.6 yards per catch his final season with Georgia and had seven touchdowns. From a vertical-threat standpoint, Hardman makes a ton of sense. Hardman will make an immediate impact on special teams as he develops as a wide receiver. I don’t love the value Womens Rashad Fenton Jersey , but the Chiefs identified a trait they desire and aggressively pursued it. If the Chiefs were grocery shopping, this was an ingredient they felt they had to have.Round 2 (63) S Juan ThornhillImmediate starter at free safety for the Chiefs. I anticipate he’ll line up week one in Jacksonville with Tyrann Matthieu. If the Chiefs kept their first-round pick and selected him at 29, I’d be happy. This is a player I’m thrilled about the Chiefs taking. Thornhill is a top-50 player for us in the KC Draft Guide. He has good size and an excellent athletic profile. Thornhill ran a 4.42 40—yard dash and posted a 44-inch vertical jump.Thornhill started as a cornerback but eventually moved to safety. There have been talks that he could potentially go back to his original position. I imagine he’ll stay and be an impact deep for the Chiefs. Round 3 (84) DL Khalen SaundersThe 84th pick in the draft was the 84th ranked player in the KC Draft Guide. Saunders is one of the more fun players and stories in this entire draft. He was a Senior Bowl participant who became a father in the middle of the event. You’ll find him on social media showing off his ability to do backflips.He might be my favorite pick of the draft. Big, fluid athlete that should thrive executing the stunts and twists in defensive coordinator Steve Spagnuolo’s scheme. The value is solid and the fit is obvious. The Chiefs have only Derrick Nnadi under contract in 2020. They have more depth now. Saunders has a ton of potential and could be an excellent value down the road.Round 6 (201) CB Rashad FentonThe Chiefs at least addressed the cornerback position. Fenton was a Tier-4 athletic tester for Craig in his analysis of the cornerback position for the KC Draft Guide. The athletic profile isn’t particularly strong. We valued him at 217 in the guide, so this is about where he was projected to go.He has slender arms but quick feet. He’s a competitive and a willing tackler. He has good punch in his press but struggles against bigger receivers. His coaches implied that he took himself out of his final game at South Carolina. There are some workable traits, but it’ll be an uphill battle for Fenton to stick on the 53-man roster. He’s most likely heading for the practice squad if he hangs around.Round 6 (214) RB Darwin ThompsonAnother selection I love. Thompson is electric in space and made people look silly in the Mountain West. I gave him a Tarik Cohen comp in the KC Draft Guide, and I could see him sticking. The biggest question for me is the contact balance. It looks great against lesser competition, so if it shows up against bigger players in tighter spaces, Thompson has a role.Thompson possesses pass-catcher traits that make him an excellent addition to the Chiefs offense. He’s not the big back the Chiefs typically covet Authentic Rashad Fenton Jersey , but he is a change of pace that could be a legitimate value this late. Thompson would be interesting to watch out on swing routes, where he can operate against smaller defenders. I’m excited to see him at training camp.Round 7 (216) IOL Nick AllegrettiAllegretti was a three-year starter and two-time captain for the Illini. It makes a ton of sense to add depth and competition late in the draft along the interior of the offensive line. The Chiefs have been good about finding value players who can execute in their outside zone-heavy scheme late in the draft. I would imagine Allegretti fits that profile.My 2019 Draft Class GradeChiefs Draft Class: BI came very close to handing out a B-plus for this class, but I’m still a little stuck on the value of wide receiver Mecole Hardman, who the Chiefs moved up for in the second round by trading the 167th pick away. He’s unrefined as a receiver but has a special trait to build off of with his speed. His special teams impact will be felt as well. Regardless, the Chiefs got a day-one starter at safety in Thornhill. The Western Illinois defensive lineman Sanders should thrive in a rotational role in Steve Spagnuolo’s defense. I love the pick of Thompson in the sixth round, and he’ll prove to be a great value with his ability in space and pass catcher traits.There are clear paths to success for almost all of their picks. They addressed the right positions to build this roster further. If Hardman shows promise over the offseason and in training camp, Chiefs fans should be very optimistic about how this class will pan out. I’m delighted with what they did throughout the course of the weekend. I look forward to seeing what we hear during rookie minicamp.
