In this Week 13 matchup, the New England Patriots host rookie quarterback Jared Goff and the Los Angeles Rams, and they will do so without tight end Rob Gronkowski who will miss the remainder of the season. With the Rams offense struggling all season, this should be a chance for Bill Belichick and Matt Patricia to really showcase their defensive schemes. Even with Gronk out, Tom Brady still has plenty of weapons at his disposal so the offense shouldn't take a huge hit like years before. Martellus Bennett should be a huge part of the Patriots offense moving forward, and we've seen the emergence of rookie Malcolm Mitchell the last few weeks. Along with the solid combination of halfback's Dion Lewis and James White catching passes as well, will this offense still be a force to be reckoned with without Gronk?
