All they can do is run the ball. Just don't do what san diego did and play zone. Play 8 men up in the box with man coverage and force Brady to go down the field to slapdicks like Hogan.
Defensively, there's nothing they can do against Mahomes because, unlike past years, they can't stop the run out of cover 2. Belichik will most likely put Jackson on Hill with safety help and put Gilmore on Watkins. That leaves Kelce on a safety and that's easy money. If Belichik wants to play cover 2 run the ball.

The Pats played some cover ZERO today. They threw everything at Rivers and the dude is a statue. They do that to Mahomes and it's going to get them burned early and often.
