Patriots Visit Saints in Week 6 With Chase Young Expected to Debut, Gonzalez Questionable

New England enters as a slight favorite after toppling Buffalo, with New Orleans fresh off a five‑takeaway win.

Overview

  • Kickoff is Sunday at 1:00 PM ET on CBS at the Caesars Superdome, with New England a narrow road favorite at roughly 3.5 points.
  • Patriots cornerback Christian Gonzalez is a game‑time decision after limited practices, and running back Antonio Gibson is out for the season with a torn ACL.
  • The Saints anticipate a pass‑rush lift with Chase Young expected to play, joining playmakers Carl Granderson, Bryan Bresee and Demario Davis up front.
  • New England’s run defense has been among the league’s best, with no opposing running back reaching 50 rushing yards against the Patriots this season.
  • Drake Maye leads a top‑10 passing attack and Stefon Diggs has back‑to‑back 100‑yard games, posing a challenge for a Saints secondary coming off five turnovers.
