American FootballNFL Tips: Patriots - Colts
Tomorrow is the second game at the Deutsche Bank Stadium in Frankfurt, and from a German NFL fan's point of view, that is of course fantastic. Unfortunately, I did not get any tickets in the draw, but I will try again next year for Munich. But for now, let us focus on the sporting aspects and my NFL picks for this game. I am not expecting a good/offensive football game and I hope that the fans will still enjoy it. Depending on your preferences, the defensive side of the ball can also be fun. This opinion has a lot to do with the New England Patriots, who are having a really poor season this year and are statistically the second worst offence in the NFL today. This is unimaginable in the days of Tom Brady.
What about the New England Patriots?
Bill Belichick is still the head coach of the Patriots, and he and Tom Brady have won all the Super Bowls together. He now has the second most wins in NFL history, and this season has been one of the toughest in his long career. There are also rumours that his coach's chair is pretty shaky and that he is not being trusted with this turnaround. I do not believe that he will be sacked as he has a very close relationship with the team owner. The problems lie deep within the squad and it will take a few years for these issues to be resolved. What is worth noting at this point: The defence remains above average, which brings me to my NFL prediction.
My NFL prediction for Patriots vs. Colts
I will put it very undiplomatically: The Patriots' offence is really, really bad. They scored zero points against the New Orleans Saints a few weeks ago, which is very rare in the NFL. Their kickers are now really good and can hit from 55-60 yards, so you should be able to score early. Even last week's performance against the Washington Commanders, who are one of the worst defences in the NFL, was poor with just 17 points. Mac Jones, the Patriots' quarterback, does not seem to be the answer, so I am curious to see what the Patriots will do here in the future. The fact is that he has no weapons in this offense. Their two best wide receivers are out injured. The Indianapolis Colts are not an explosive team either, so I expect them to score few points.
