BRADY’S NOT PANICKING: ‘WE’RE 10-2’

New England is going to need to find some points to beat the Kansas City Chiefs next weekend, but quarterback Tom Brady would like to hush the panic over the Patriots’ scattershot offence. A loss to Houston Sunday dropped the Patriots to 10-2. “We’re not 2-10, we’re 10-2,” Brady, shown, said in a radio interview Monday with WEEI in Boston. “I think the expectations for our team are often at a very, very, very high level. I understand that. But at the same time, I think there are realistic expectations with our circumstances and incorporating different elements and players and injuries.” Without Rob Gronkowski (retirement) and having released Josh Gordon following Antonio Brown’s brief stint with the team, the Patriots receiving corps has been a work in progress. Brady has 18 touchdowns and six interceptions in 2019.
