Despite their past success, the New England Patriots are currently facing a rebuilding phase. After finishing last season with a 4-13 record, they are now considered to be in a tough spot. In fact, DraftKings.com has them as -1800 favorites to miss the playoffs, making them the most likely team not to make it to the postseason.
The Patriots’ chances of making it back to the playoffs seem slim as they are expected to have a tough season ahead. Their AFC East rivals, including the Bills, Dolphins, and Jets, are all predicted to perform well this year. As a result, it will be quite surprising if the Patriots can manage to climb out of the bottom of the AFC East standings.
Following closely behind them is Denver at -1100 odds of missing the playoffs. The Panthers and Titans both have -900 odds while Giants and Raiders have -550 odds each. The Vikings and Cardinals also have -400 odds of missing out on the playoffs this season.
Overall, it seems that the odds are stacked against the Patriots this year as they try to recover from their disappointing performance last season. However, only time will tell if they can overcome these challenges and make it back into contention for another Super Bowl title.
