2017 Pats defense was inferior to the 2018 version
But KC would have a difficult time stopping New England. Brady was the MVP that year. I think sack would lose a shootout, 28-42. Rookie Mahomes would put a scare in NE but I think your underestimating what late season Brady would do to the 2017 defense.
If we were lucky enough to get past NE, I don’t think Mahomes is outscoring the 2017 Jags in Florida. That Jacksonville offense with Fournette would run train on that defense. I don’t think Mahomes would win a shootout here, probably a 20-38 type loss
If we got past Jacksonville, Philly would dominate us. Foles may lay a 50 burger on us.
But I’m pretty sure the journey would end in Foxborough, and Mahomes would begin 2018 as a respected QB, which would in turn make the Steeler game more difficult
