Quarterbacks who don't play in the preseason historically underperform market expectations in Week 1. Drake Maye's lack of preseason work didn't seem to be intentional, either. Head coach Mike Vrabel alluded to wanting Maye to play in the team's preseason finale but ultimately kept his starters off the field due to weather concerns. Seattle's injuries at safety in Week 1 could create more opportunities for New England's ground game than their passing attack.

Quarterbacks who don't play in the preseason historically underperform market expectations in Week 1; Maye's lack of preseason work was due to weather concerns that kept New England's starters off the field in their preseason finale. Seattle's injuries at safety could create more opportunities for New England's ground game than their passing attack. If New England plays with a lead in the second half, Maye's passing opportunities could be further reduced. The source's FTN Betting Model shows a 10.31% edge on the under.
