After a great debut to the New England faithful in their Week 1 victory, QB Cam Newton was the talk of all the townies in Massachusetts. But beating a rebuilding team like the Dolphins was to be expected. Traveling across the country to play against a perennial team with an MVP-caliber quarterback, however, would prove to be more of a litmus test and whether or not the 2020 Patriots were still capable of hanging with the big boys.
On a Sunday night showdown, the Patriots travelled to Seattle to take on the Seattle Seahawks. Without the infamous ‘12th Man’ in the stands, the Patriots had one less thing to be concerned. They still, however, had to find a way to beat the Seahawks.
