As the New England Patriots prepare to face the Dallas Cowboys in Week 4, Patriots Country highlights three players to watch.
Following their 15-10 victory over the New York Jets in Week 3, the Pats have the chance to earn a .500 record for the first time this season. Still, the task at hand will be difficult, as the Cowboys are still feeling the sting from their surprising 28-16 loss to the Arizona Cardinals last week. Dallas boasts one of the most talented and explosive teams in the NFL. As such, they will be eager to cement their place as Conference front runners in front of their home crowd.
In Week 4, Gonzalez is expected to draw coverage against Cowboys star receiver CeeDee Lamb. Accordingly, the rookie’s quick assimilation into the pro game will be put to the test. The Pats first-rounder will need to pull upon his adaptability and athleticism to match routes with the versatile and explosive Lamb. Gonzalez is arguably at his best in man coverage, which may cause some difficulty in defending Lamb — who is known to do his best work when operating from the slot.
Fifth-round selection Atonio Mafi projects as the Pats Week 4 starter, given the experiences he has earned throughout the season’s first three weeks. Mafi’s athleticism is clearly visible on his game film. He plays with solid balance, which should help him against Dallas’ athletic defensive linemen. His ability to move fluidly with good balance while sustaining his blocks gave him a prominent place on the Patriots draft radar.
