The New England Patriots enjoyed a mini bye over the weekend after their Thursday night victory over the Indianapolis Colts. Today, the team will return to the Gillette Stadium facilities to start preparation for the upcoming opponent – arguably the toughest one on the schedule: the 5-0 Kansas City Chiefs, who have just defeated the Jacksonville Jaguars and their top-ranked defense 30-14.
But despite their recent run of success, the 3-2 Patriots are the early favorites over Andy Reid’s team: New England opens the week favored to win by three points (via OddsShark).
