Five bold predictions for the Patriots in week six

Ja’Whaun Bentley leads the team in tackles

If the Browns come out running the ball as expected, Ja’Whaun Bentley is going to be a huge factor in this game. Fortunately for the Patriots, he is coming on at the right time, as 15 of his 31 tackles have come in the last two weeks. He stepped in to help make a huge run stop on fourth and inches during the Lions opening possession and overall had a really good game.

If the big guys up front are able to control the line of scrimmage like they did last week, Bentley will have plenty of chances to make plays in the running game. The key will be for him to actually bring Chubb down as he has proven to be difficult to tackle.
