Week four in the NFL will come to an end on Monday night when the Kansas City Chiefs play host to the New England Patriots.

More from New England Patriots

Both teams were in the postseason last year but both have gotten off to rather poor starts this season. The Patriots opened the season with a loss to the Miami Dolphins and although they have since defeated the Minnesota Vikings and Oakland Raiders, they have not been impressive. After a poor loss to the Tennessee Titans in week one, the Chiefs have looked better each week, falling to the Denver Broncos in the final seconds and then defeating the Dolphins last week.

One of the big problems for the Patriots has been the lack of weapons for Tom Brady. That’s why it is a surprise hat both Kenbrell Thompkins and Aaron Dobson are inactive for tonight’s match-up.

For the Chiefs, running back Jamaal Charles is active while safety Eric Berry is not.
