The New England Patriots are looking to bounce back after a Week 1 loss to the Super Bowl Champion Seahawks.
All odds written in this article were correct at the time of writing and are subject to change.
The New England Patriots (0-1) had a frustrating 13-10 loss to Seattle Seahawks in the Super Bowl rematch during week one. Mike Vrabel's team will be at home this week against the Pittsburgh Steelers (1-0).
Rookie tight end Eli Raridon was the only touchdown scorer for the Patriots against Seattle, and also scored the first touchdown of the NFL season. Raidon caught a two yard pass from quarterback Drake Maye for his first professional score. Raridon was +6500 to score the first TD in that game, and is +3500 to score the first TD against Pittsburgh.
Running back Rhamondre Stevenson has the shortest odds of any player to score a TD in Sundays game, priced at +100 on bet365. Second year running back TreVeyon Henderson missed week one, but is expected to be active against the Steelers. Henderson is +270 to score a touchdown.
The Steelers had a much easier Week 1 opponent in Atlanta Falcons, and secured a 20-13 victory. Atlanta scored the first touchdown, but Aaron Rodgers found his tight end Pat Freiermuth for a six yard TD pass in the second quarter for the Steelers first of the season. The second touchdown came when T.J. Watt returned a Cooper Rush interception to the endzone for a defensive score in the fourth quarter.
Running back Jaylen Warren has the shortest odds to score against the Patriots. He is +170 to score anytime, and +700 to score the games first TD.
With A.J. Brown on the sidelines with an ankle injury, Maye will be looking for pass catchers to step up this weekend. Look for Mack Hollins and Romeo Doubs to get a much higher usage against the Steelers than they did against Seattle.
