Three bold predictions for the New England Patriots in 2022

Three bold predictions for the 2022 Patriots: Team finds a way to win double digit games and make playoffs

The last bold prediction for the 2022 Patriots is that they will find a way to not only win double digit games, but also make the playoffs as one of the three Wild Card teams.

Their schedule is tough, but they do have a much easier first half than second half.  If their first nine games before their bye week go well, they may only have to win a few during their last nine matchups to get to at least 10 wins.

The Patriots would have to take care of business against teams like the Jets, Bears, Lions, and others during the first half, but it’s rare for New England to be caught in a trap game.

With the moves that the Dolphins and Bills made this offseason, talk about the Patriots has mostly been negative.  However, they are returning their core from last season, where they went 10-7 and made the playoffs.

I would not count them out for this season.  The addition of DeVante Parker might prove to be better than some think, and other young players like Christian Barmore and Kyle Dugger could help the defense reach even bigger heights.
