After a disappointing 8-9 record last season for a third-place finish in the AFC East, the New England Patriots are looking to bounce back when the 2023 campaign begins at home against the Super Bowl runner-up, the Philadelphia Eagles, Sept. 10 (CBS, 4:25 p.m.).
While the Patriots odds to win the Super Bowl aren't providing much hope this season, many fans are eager for this year's opener, as the franchise will honor legendary quarterback Tom Brady.
Brady, of course, just retired and hasn’t played for New England for a few years.
The Patriots, behind quarterback Mac Jones, need more firepower on the offense, having scored just 21.4 points per game (17th out of 32 teams) in 2022. Massachusetts sportsbooks don't expect much from the Pats this season, with their win total set at just 7.5 Wins.
Over the last 10 seasons, though, points have gone up on the board when teams square off at Gillette Stadium.
