The New England Patriots are coming off a galvanizing vintage blowout of the New York Jets. At 1-1, the Patriots cleared the first major hurdle of the NFL season by avoiding a scary 0-2 start. New England now has a shot at being over .500 with a win over the New Orleans Saints.

Meanwhile, the New Orleans Saints have gone from hot to cold faster than you can say 'Marcus Davenport' who, by the way, won't face the Patriots this week. After opening Week 1 with an evisceration of the MVP Aaron Rodgers, the Saints got the doors blown off in Week 2 against the Carolina Panthers.

Which Saints team will show up against New England?

Julian Edelman compares Tom Brady coming back to Foxboro to being a child of divorced parents, and at a family BBQ, and not knowing how the parents will respond to each other.

Edelman says he will always pull for the Patriots, but hopes Tom Brady and Gronk play well.

The New England Patriots have more than a few notable players dealing with injuries. Starting running back Damien Harris is questionable for the game after limited practice on Thursday owing to a finger injury. Matt Judon is fighting a knee injury and was also limited. Offensive tackle Trent Brown is also questionable with a calf injury.

Other big names out this week are Stephon Gilmore, kicker Quinn Nordin, N'Keal Harry and Jarrett Stidham.
