Why did the New England Patriots offense manage just 203 total yards and one gift of a touchdown Sunday? If you ask some of their players, it's partly because the Indianapolis Colts knew what was coming.

ahead of Sunday's matchup. But New England is supposedly running a different offense under play-caller Matt Patricia than it ran with offensive coordinator Josh McDaniels when Gilmore was with the team.

Either way, it's not a good sign for the Patriots if Leonard was calling out their plays, which suggests that New England may have tipped him off with certain tendencies, formations or pre-snap calls. The Patriots' offense has a laundry list of issues right now, starting with terrible play from its offensive line, which allowedto be sacked four times and take seven quarterback hits Sunday. Matt Patricia's group has just two touchdown drives in its last two games , averaged a measly 3.3 yards per play against the Colts and now ranks 26th in the NFL in yards per game.

Thankfully, the Patriots have a Week 10 bye before a rematch with the New York Jets in Week 11. Based on how Sunday went, much of that time should be devoted to fixing their many offensive issues.
