" I this is Chris gas for the Boston Globe and a patriots are playing 80 in five Tennessee Titans on Sunday but that doesn't mean you can take Tennessee nightly bill about -- Certainly is not so here are my three keys to Sunday's game for the patriots. To not have the infamy becoming the first team to lose to Tennessee this season number one. Det off fast start this is a team that is only five have high expectations going to the year if another bad thing happens to them you can jump out on top. Gonna get inside their heads to -- if you let them stick around and stay in the game they're scratching climb for this season and I will make it difficult. The second key containing Chris Johnson -- Tennessee's number one offensive weapon. You don't wanna see their only offensive weapon but sometimes it certainly seems that way the way they run their offense. He leads the NFL in total yards from scrimmage -- very dangerous one of the fastest players in the league patriots have to make sure they pretty disciplined defense -- set the edge. Contain he's gonna get his yards but don't let him rip -- that -- rip off a fifty or sixty yard line or get an open space. That third key is this could be the game where Tom Brady Randy masa got and the patriots rediscover the deep off. -- of the Tennessee Titans -- 31 and yet down past the fact they've been allowing 287 point six yards per game. You only quarterback who has not thrown for 300 yards against them so far was rookie Mark Sanchez these guys are right. To lighted up in terms of the passing game also a lot of injuries and their secondary equipment fitting in their Pro Bowl corner from a year ago it's hurt the other corner Nick Harper is also her. Behind those guys they have two rookies and ride -- a guy they sign this week there's no reason the patriot shouldn't be able to exploit their pass defense that was my three kids for the patriots to walk out of Gillette Stadium the victory. Against the Tennessee Titans on Sunday."
