Patriots game-by-game, record predictions for 2023 season

The Patriots Wire staff make their game-by-game predictions for the Patriots’ 2023 season.

The New England Patriots face long odds in overcoming a daunting 2023 regular season schedule, but they’ve put the pieces in place through free agency and the draft to at least give themselves a fighting chance.

Sure, the AFC East is much-improved, but there are still questions across the board that tug at the notion that the division has suddenly morphed into an unmatchable juggernaut for the Patriots.

Will Tua Tagovailoa’s health hold up for the Miami Dolphins long-term? Are we starting to see cracks in the Buffalo Bills’ locker room? Is a 39-year-old Aaron Rodgers really good enough to get the New York Jets over the hump?

The Patriots Wire staff weighs all of that and more into consideration when making our official predictions for the Patriots’ season. We’re taking it game-by-game and finishing with an overall record prediction at the end.
