Now with a 1-2 record after three games, the Patriots will be looking to add another win to their total when they take on the 2-1 Cowboys inside Dallas’ AT&T Stadium.
New England began their 2023 season with a close loss to the defending NFC Champion Philadelphia Eagles, and then in Week 2, the Patriots were handed another loss by the Miami Dolphins.
Facing the possibility of starting their schedule with an 0-3 record, New England was able to make enough plays in Week 3 to defeat the Jets and improve their record to 1-2.
Now, they get to take on an angry Cowboys team that is coming off of a shocking loss to the Arizona Cardinals in Week 3.
Dallas was a heavy favorite in Arizona, and most assumed it was going to be an easy win for the Cowboys, but the unpredictable result of the matchup is exactly why so many people love the NFL.
In Week 4, Dallas is going to be the favorite again, but the Patriots will be looking to follow the Cardinals’ lead and pull off the upset.
