I'll take the over (8.5).
Much more concerned about the defense.
Edelman was a cog for Brady, not a star.
The win total was 8.5 before Newton signed, the Pats real win total as 9- 9.5
https://www.vegasinsider.com/nfl/odds/win-totalsI got them as 8-9 win team
Hightower, Van Noy, Collins and Chung are big losses on D and that's supposed to be the strength of the 2020 Pats
the young LBs Bently Winovich, Roberts are going to have to step it up
Re Edelman: so you think an aging and banged up Edelman will finally emerge from being a JAG, to a star, under a new QB still learning the system.
Jules if he stays healthy may be the best WR on the Pats, which is the problem, he'll be the guy that draw doubles.
I love Jules, he's a great competitor, and a pretty good football player, but he may get killed as Newton's safety valve.
