Chandler Jones awarded for his play against the Vikings

Chandler Jones had quite the game against the Minnesota Vikings.

After being placed back on the edge instead of being asked to work from the inside like he was against Miami, Jones went from being the worst 3-4 OLB in the league in week 1 to the best in week 2 (via ProFootballFocus).

He also filled up the stat sheet, which always helps.

Chandler Jones was named AFC Defensive Player of the Week. Two sacks, three QB hits, three hurries, blocked FG, TD. That'll do it.

The Patriots were victim to week 1's AFC Defensive Player of the Week, Miami's Cameron Wake, so good to see them being the ones getting the honor this time.

Was this Chandler Jones' best game as a Patriot? Weigh in below.
