The Patriots win total is set for 2024
The Patriots win total was officially set last week for the 2024 season. New England is coming off a season with only 4 wins and after the total was set at 6.5 wins. It was their lowest win total since 1992 when the team won just 2 games. The Patriots went under the total in the 2022 season as well when the total was set at 6.5 wins. Bet online set the win total for this season for the Patriots at 4.5 wins for 2024. This is New England’s lowest season win total since 1991 (O/U 4, finished 6-10)
The Patriots have a new coach in Jerod Mayo and will have a new quarterback after trading Mac Jones to Jacksonville for a 6th round pick. unless they hit big time on this draft class, that might be their reality. The Patriots made very few additions in free agency, mostly re-signing their own players while adding a few depth pieces. The line could change after the draft, but this line indicates how oddsmakers feel about the teams offseason and how they will perform without Bill Belichick next season. It should also be mentioned that FanDuel has the Patriots win total at 5.5 wins at -140. The average bettor would put up $140 to win $100, it’s tempting.
The Patriots played one of the league’s toughest schedules in 2023, and luckily for them that won’t be the case next season.The AFC East teams will play the AFC South and NFC West in 2024. The Houston Texans and Indianapolis Colts will travel to Gillette Stadium, while the Patriots visit the Jacksonville Jaguars and Tennessee Titans. For the NFC West, the Patriots will host the Seattle Seahawks and Los Angeles Rams, and also visit the San Francisco 49ers and Arizona Cardinals. The Bengals also should be better next season with a healthy Joe Burrow. They have also added Trent Brown to the offensive line which should protect the blind side.
At the moment I lean under 4.5 wins and would even bet the high vig on the under 5.5. Of course teams have had projected low win totals just like the Texans last season. That should be the blueprint for the Patriots.
