The Patriots are now turning the ball over, adding to their problems

Rhamondre Stevenson was supposed to give the New England Patriots one position it didn’t have to worry about coming into the season. But he has had trouble holding onto the ball, and it’s becoming a crisis: He turned the ball over in the first quarter of New England’s 30-13 loss to San Francisco on Sunday, giving the 49ers the ball on the Patriots 30 — his fourth straight game with a fumble. “He has a target on his back as far as a guy that doesn’t have good ball security,” Patriots coach Jerod Mayo said. We always talk about ball security equaling job security, and we just have to continue to develop that.” What’s working Special teams helped New England avoid an even worse loss, with Joey Slye kicking a franchise-record 63-yard field goal at the end of the first half. Key number 52 — The 52 points are the Patriots’ fewest through four games since Bill Belichick’s first season in New England, 2000, when they scored only 51 through Week 4.
