Even Julian Edelman has lost faith in the New England Patriots.
Edelman, who serves as a brand ambassador for WynnBet, posted a photo of his moneyline parlay for Sunday, choosing four games across the league. And the Patriots-Raiders are among the games chosen.
However, New England would not be happy with who he expects to win.
Along with choosing the Falcons, Jaguars, and Lions to win, Edelman opted to go with the Raiders.
Edelman even reference Patriots fans in his post on X, formerly known as Twitter, adding "sorry pats fans" in parentheses at the bottom.
"Patriots at Raiders. Jimmy G is so handsome and he's 1-0 vs. the Pats," Edelman said during his 11 second preview, explaining his pick.
Here are all of Edelman's picks for Sunday:
Commanders at Falcons – Falcons -140
Lions at Buccaneers – Lions -170
Patriots at Raiders – Raiders -150
Colts at Jaguars – Jaguars -210
Edelman put $500 on his parlay and if everything hits, he will be able to collect $3,349.35.
The Patriots have struggled this season, and the offense has been a main part of that. With that, Mac Jones has been benched in the past two games, with Bailey Zappe coming in to replace him. And it's clear neither of them have been able to provide the team with the spark it needs.
Yet, they have decided to sign Malik Cunningham to the active roster prior to Sunday's game. And Will Grier is reportedly another option if Jones once again gets out to a slow start.
As for the Raiders, they have also not had the season they hoped for. They earned their second win of the season on Monday night over the Green Bay Packers. However, they had a short week to prepare for Sunday's game against the Patriots.
Yet regardless, the Patriots recent struggles are enough to make the Raiders the favorites heading into the game.
Now it will up to New England to prove Edelman wrong… and even make him lose a lot of money.
