Here's the reality, what we call the Cold, hard Football Facts:

The Patriots scored more points than the Chargers this year

The Patriots gave up fewer points than the Chargers

The Patriots beat more Quality Opponents (5 to 4),

The Patriots fielded a better pass defense (85.4 to 89.1 Defensive Passer Rating)

The Patriots ranked No. 1 in the NFL in defensive efficiency (17.68 Yards Per Point Allowed); the Chargers were 10th.

The Patriots ranked 4th in the NFL relative to the quality of opposition (+7.4 PPG); Chargers were 7th (+5.4 PPG)

The Patriots have won 15 straight games at home dating back to October 1, 2017

Doesn't mean the Patriots will win today. But it does mean that the reality of these two teams is quite a bit different than what Bostonians heard on air all week.

I don't think anyone was disputing the fact NE should be a favorite today. :shrug:

Pats took the opening kickoff first time in years I think. Then drive 87 yards over 7 minutes. They saw something.
