Week 7: Patriots vs. Bears
Return of the Mac!
Okay, we're sitting at 3-3, the offensive game plan for the last couple of games has been what we should have been running from the beginning, but hey, preseason is over. Zappe's play and mostly ball protection had to have lit a fire under Mac. He's gotta just go back to the fundamentals and stop trying to be Patrick Mahomes. We're playing another pretty crappy team this week, but it's the perfect kind of game to gain some confidence back before next week's divisional showdown with the surprisingly good Jets. I think we annihilate the Bears.
Pats win 34-13
Bold Prediction: The defense gets 3 turnovers and we don't turn the ball over once
Thoughts from the board

I've decided to predict a scorigami every week. Anyway the run defense will need to step up and not rely on a gameplan that ignores really good running backs. They'll also need to contain Fields on the ground. For the offense, not knowing who will start at QB, I expect the Mondre Show to continue and to see a variance of targets in the passing game.
Patriots win 31-11
Bold Prediction: TDs from TEs - one apiece for Hunter and Jonnu

It's the Bears. Gilbert could start and the Pats would win. UPDATE: I added some FU points to the Pats total after hearing about the Bears defender who brought up Deflategate.
Patriots win 52-13
Bold Prediction: Wynn won't have a penalty called on him. Mills won't suck.

I truly know nothing about the Bears except Justin Fields and....uh, yeah, that's it. Oh, don't they play in Illinois somewhere?
Bears win 18-12

Not a whole lot to analyze here: the bears suck, the pats do not.

We have momentum. The wins will keep on coming.
Patriots win 28-13
Bold Prediction: Jack Jones snags 2 picks.
MAC
If Mac starts, he's gotta work off the rust. If Zappe starts, the Pats will score moar pointz. Containing Fields is the key.
Patriots win 23-20
Bold Prediction: Punt return for a TD
