Maye, Patriots Head to London On Long Losing Streak
In their first game of the season, the New England Patriots won outright as an underdog against the Cincinnati Bengals. Since then, they have not won a game, dropping five straight contests, including their most recent outing against the Houston Texans. Drake Maye got the start in the 41-21 loss to Houston and he was predictably a mixed bag, throwing three touchdown passes and two interceptions in the loss. But the Pats have not scored more than 21 points in a game so far this season and they will likely need to change that to get back into the win column in Week 7.
Jaguars Hope Second Time Is the Charm In London
Going into Patriots vs Jaguars on Sunday morning here in the states, the Jacksonville Jaguars are also 1-5 on the year. As a bizarre form of punishment to the people of London, the Jaguars are playing in London for the second week in a row this week, after they lost to the Chicago Bears there in Week 6. The Jags gave up four passing touchdowns to the number-one overall pick from the most recent draft class, Caleb Williams. Here, they will try and avoid another embarrassing outing against a rookie quarterback as they hope to fare better defensively against Maye and the Pats.
Patriots vs Jaguars Betting Pick
An underrated component of this Patriots vs Jaguars matchup is the fact that the Jaguars are staying in London for a full week, while the Patriots have to travel there this week. That travel assignment is no easy task and we should see the Jags better acclimated to being overseas in this game than New England. That, combined with the struggles of the Patriots offense has us laying the points with the Jags in this one from Wembley.
