The New England Patriots might have figured out a major offensive dilemma Sunday night late in their Week 2 loss to the Seattle Seahawks.
The Patriots’ skill-position group won’t be mistaken for one of the best pass-catching units in the NFL, but New England has some talent at running back, wide receiver and tight end, and quarterback Cam Newton wasn’t afraid to spread the ball around in Seattle while mounting a comeback. Julian Edelman will be Newton’s top target. The 34-year-old receiver is on pace for a ridiculous 104-catch, 1,888-yard season after two games.
