Clyde Edwards-Helaire

After a dominating debut in Week 1, Clyde Edwards-Helaire hasn’t had quite the success on the gridiron. He did become more of a receiving threat last week and that should continue to be a trend given how much the Chiefs like to air out the pigskin.

The reason Edwards-Helaire makes this list for Week 4 is that the Patriots haven’t really allowed for a big rushing day in any of their three games so far (as in, no single running back has rushed for over 100 yards yet). Edwards-Helaire will look to be the first person to do so, but it won’t be easy.

Will Edwards-Helaire have a big game against the Patriots? We’ll find out this weekend.

I’m mostly curious to see how the defense does this weekend because the offense is going to put up points and we all know that. The defense, however, has been a tale of two teams in the first three weeks of the season. They looked good in Week 1 and Week 3, but Week 2 injuries plagued them and it showed against the Chargers.

Which defense shows up this week? Will the Patriots be able to move the ball consistently against this Chiefs defense? Will the linebackers continue to show improvement? These are just some of the questions I have regarding this team’s performance this weekend against the New England Patriots.
