FOXBORO — The New England Patriots are looking sharp as ever in their divisional-round matchup against the Los Angeles Chargers.
After rookie running back Sony Michel rushed for a touchdown on each of the Patriots’ first two drives Sunday afternoon at Gillette Stadium, Tom Brady and Phillip Dorsett connected to make it a perfect 3-for-3. On a 3rd-and-6 from the Chargers’ 15-yard line, Brady floated a perfect pass to Dorsett, who had quite a bit of real estate in the corner of the end zone.
