The New England Patriots will be looking for their second straight win on Sunday when rolling out the red carpet at Gillette Stadium for the visiting Los Angeles Rams.
It was a sack party in “The Windy City” last week as the Patriots defense feasted on Chicago Bears rookie quarterback Caleb Williams in the pocket. They racked up nine sacks and 13 quarterback hits in a 19-3 upset win over the Bears at Soldier Field.
Meanwhile, the Rams fell short in a clash with the Miami Dolphins at home. Quarterback Matthew Stafford failed to throw a single touchdown pass, and the offense sputtered in a 23-15 loss.
Their playoff hopes are already dimming with a 4-5 record, and they can’t afford to drop another loss in Sunday’s matchup with the Patriots.
Can the Patriots’ defense continue to play at a high level with standout defensive tackle Christian Barmore set to return? How will rookie quarterback Drake Maye fare in his sixth NFL start?
Here’s the full round-up of Patriots Wire staff picks for the Week 11 matchup:
Jordy McElroy (4-6) – Patriots 24, Rams 20
Danny Jaillet (4-6) – Patriots 17, Rams 23
Cam Garrity (3-7) – Patriots 21, Rams 17
