I hate laying a ton of points in the NFL, but no team is better at doing the little things to help cover big numbers than the Patriots. Since the start of 2015, the Pats are 15-4 ATS when favored by 10 points or more, including 5-1 on the road. Washington has a poor home-field advantage, a ton of injuries, a revolving door at quarterback, a piecemeal offensive line and three straight games giving up 30-plus points before losing 24-3 last week. They do nothing well. So I'm going to go ahead and lay the big number with the safest team in the league.
The Unders for New England have been on a roll, going 11-2 in the last 13 regular season games. Patriots Unders should be 4-0 to start this year but one was scuttled by two non-offensive TDs with the Pats up 30-0. The Patriots defense looks historically good and should have no issues with a floundering Washington offense that has no serviceable QB. Unless Washington picks up a fluke TD or two, we should safely hit the Under again.
New England should crush Washington. The Redskins are a mess, they're as bad as any team in the league. Lay it.
