Belichick explained how well Patricia knows his team after the Lions coach has spent the last 14 years in New England, including the last six as the organization's defensive coordinator (via Patriots.com):
As for Detroit, there are a lot of unknowns out there. Offensively, it's a very explosive group. The kicking game is very explosive and defensive, which they showed, but we know there is a lot more behind the curtain than that. Nobody knows us better than Matt [Patricia] Is. He worked against our attack every day for a long time. I am sure that he will respond to it in a way that will be difficult for us. We will have to make adjustments in the game and perform high level performances.

Fredi the PizzaMan remembered the last time Detroit beat New England, before the future Pats Hall of Fame quarterback Tom Brady became the regular starter:
The last time the Detroit Lions beat the New England Patriots, it was 23/11/2000, 34-6, Gary Moeller was the HC, Tom Brady relieved Bledsoe and completed a pass . Charlie Batch has launched for 194yds and Bryant Westbrook has a return of 101 vts INT for a TD.

Phil Perry thinks the Patriots' high school could be struggling tonight due to missing key players:
The flowers, Chung, Rowe were all excluded for the Lions Patriots. Moving parts in high school against a passing game in Detroit with some talent.
– Phil Perry (@PhilAPerry) September 23, 2018
Adam Schefter has discovered that the newly acquired receiver, Josh Gordon, could play for New England in this match:
WR Josh Gordon, new patriot, is sufficiently shaped his hamstring strained to play Sunday against the Lions, by source.
– Adam Schefter (@AdamSchefter) September 17, 2018
Brady warned fans to temper Gordon's upcoming expectations and to be immediately a huge part of the Patriots' attack (via BostonHerald.com):
I do not think coaches will put anyone off if they do not know what they are doing, if they do not know what to do on a play. Now you can limit a number of games and try to do it. I think we have done a lot of times. Every time you get new players, that's what you are trying to do …Look, he's been here for a few days. Every day you try to make improvements. Everyone works hard, trying to practice, doing what they have to do to understand the playbook, understand the routes, understand how things are done. So we try to work on it.
Brad Galli noted that Belichick praised one quarter of Lions Matt Stafford:
Bill Belichick congratulated Matthew Stafford before the Patriots / Lions game.
"One of the best in the league," he said of Stafford's passing ability. pic.twitter.com/8VFVMm0Tiy

Frank Stampfl pointed out that the over / under-play of this game is now the highest of week 3:
Wow, the weak key #Patriots and #The Lions over / under reached the highest on the list at age 55. # Heads and # 49ers up to 54, people pound the sub when it opened at 56. Interesante.
– Frank Stampfl (@Roto_Frank) September 23, 2018
Nick Veronica has highlighted a record that Lions are about to break:
The NFL record for the most points awarded in 3 matches is 119. TWO teams pose legitimate threats to break it today.
the #Factures (vs Vikings) and #The Lions (vs. Patriots) each awarded 78 points in two games.
If one of the two teams drops 42 today, it will break the record.
– Nick Veronica (@NickVeronica) September 23, 2018
Terry Foster reminded everyone that Detroit has not been very good against the winning clubs in recent times:
People believe the @The Lions will beat the New England Patriots because they stun people and win games that they should not. Really? Lions are 9-66 against winning teams since 2011
– Terry Foster (@ TerryFoster971) September 23, 2018
Patricia gave the recognition report of her former team (via Patriots.com):
I think [the Patriots] are quite consistent with what they do. I think they're using all their players in a way that really stretches you in all three phases of the game. I think they obviously have their dynamic players doing games for them. Some different tips are developed based on the staff they have and their points of interest that they are trying to accomplish this year. So, some of them are a little different, but I think that in the end, these are just solid fundamentals, very good techniques, they do a great job on the basics. S tackle, launch, catch, get business figures, take advantage of opportunities, all that smart football you have to see.
