New England Patriots: Week 6 fantasy projection for Tom Brady
By Nick Ziegler
With Week 6 of the fantasy football season here, what can we expect from New England Patriots quarterback, Tom Brady?
The New England Patriots appear to be back on track after a nice win on Thursday Night Football against the Indianapolis Colts. After losing two straight games, the Patriots are now on a two-game winning streak with one of the biggest games of the season coming up.
In Week 6, the Patriots will be hosting the Kansas City Chiefs, who are still undefeated. Patrick Mahomes has taken the league by storm. With a ridiculously high total of nearly 60, this is going to be a golden game for fantasy football owners.
While the Chiefs are undefeated, their defense has not played all that well this season so far. New England’s offense appears to be getting on track, as they are healthy and we started to see what they were capable of last week against the Colts.
With a ton of weapons around him, Tom Brady had a great game against the Colts, and he should be primed for another big week in fantasy. The Chiefs are allowing the 5th most points to opposing quarterbacks this season, and this sets up Brady for a great game.
After losing to the Chiefs at home to start last season, New England will surely be hungry for some revenge. In addition to the revenge factor, New England getting a little extra time to prepare for Mahomes and the passing offense of the Chiefs will be very beneficial.
Coming off a 300-yard passing game, Brady should be able to once again have a strong performance. Last week, he did get charged with two interceptions, but neither of them were his fault.
With a high-scoring game expected, this should be a golden spot for Brady against the Chiefs.
