Every week, we up our prep on the Patriots’ next opponent with our “5 questions…” feature where we check in with a writer who covers New England’s next opponent. For this week’s game against the Brownies, we talk with old buddy, Nestor Aparacio, the veteran multimedia star at WNST. Check him out on Twitter here. Thanks to Nes for his time.

1. Ok, Nestor. We're used to seeing some great Ravens defenses in the past but this one isn't close. I know they have Marcus Peters now and may get Jimmy Smith back, but what's the deal with that unit, and is the run defense really that bad?
Brandon
Williams
Pernell
McPhee
2. We all know Bill Belichick and the Patriots will keep Lamar Jackson from running wild. Can he make the throws in the fourth quarter to beat Tom Brady?
3. How has Earl Thomas been playing for the Ravens?
4. Give me an under-the-radar guy on offense and defense that may impact this game.
Patrick
Ricard
Nick
Boyle
Mark
Andrews
Marlon
Humphrey
5. What's the gameplan for the Patriots to shut down Baltimore on either side, and what's your game pick?
