I like New England at -7 New England comes in off Brady news with Brady looked good in training camp but poor in preseason. Pittsburgh comes in with Bell, Pouncey, and Bryant out, New England without Lafell and possibly Edelman.
Even though the Patriots come in without Revis, Browner, and Arrigton, Browner and Arrington struggled in coverage, and Butler looks solid. The patriots defensive schemes will also be very different with Revis out and the team may play more zone, so Pittsburgh won't know the type of coverages New England will use. The Patriots pass rush should be better healthy now, and the safety play has been strong. New England's offense should be fine decision to release Wayne means Edelman more likley to play, and Grwski is healthy.
Pittsburgh's defense struggled most last year and looked bad in the preseason. Heyward is the only above average defensive linemen and the Allen and the safety have struggled. Pittsburgh's offense struggled without Bell, and Heyward-Bey struggld
