Five bold predictions for Patriots in week three

Mark Andrews leads the Ravens in receiving

In 2021, Mark Andrews solidified himself as one of the premier tight ends in the NFL, as he was named first-team All-Pro and made his second Pro Bowl team. Andrews is off to another great start in 2022 as he has hauled in 14 receptions for 156 yards and one touchdown. Even after trading Hollywood Brown to the Arizona Cardinals during the offseason, the Ravens have two good receivers in Rashod Bateman and Devin Duvernay to help lead the offense.

Duvernay is also off to a big start in 2022, but suffered a concussion late in last week’s loss to the Dolphins, so he may be limited this week. I can see the Patriots trying to shut down Bateman on the outside, leaving Andrews open to take advantage of a defense that may be without safety Kyle Dugger (knee). Jackson has targeted Andrews on 31% off his attempts through two weeks and I think that will be the case again on Sunday.
