The Carroll-less Seattle Seahawks (1-0) travel to Foxboro, Massachusetts to take on the freshly de-Belichick-ed New England Patriots (1-0) at Gillette Stadium, marking the 20th matchup between these two storied franchises.
The Patriots haven’t had a regular season victory over the Seahawks since 2008, and curiously, there haven’t been any notable matchups in the series otherwise. Seattle, leading the series 10-8 excluding that one exhibition that doesn’t count, looks to carry its win streak into the Mike Macdonald era.
For the Patriots, the Jerod Mayo era got off to a hot start and a Gatorade bath as they stymied the Cincinnati Bengals on the road.
