The New England Patriots have demonstrated an impressive ability to respond to adversity dating back to the start of last season, and they have the chance to keep a key streak alive in Week 10 against the Detroit Lions.
According to DraftKings Sports
, the Patriots are one of only two teams, also including the San Francisco 49ers, that have gone undefeated in games following a loss since the start of the 2025 season.Since Week 1 of last season, the Patriots have responded to losses with victories over the Miami Dolphins, Carolina Panthers and Baltimore Ravens, as well as the Pittsburgh Steelers, Buffalo Bills and Dolphins this season. Their consistency in responding to losses has become a notable strength of theirs, even when matched up against
playoff contenders in ensuing weeks.
New England will look to extend the streak in Week 10 against the Lions after losing to the Green Bay Packers in Week 9. Detroit presents a difficult challenge for New England, particularly with its explosive offense. The Patriots will need a complete performance to secure another bounce-back victory over the Lions.
Patriots quarterback Drake Maye will need to lead the offense efficiently, while Rhamondre Stevenson must establish the running game and Mack Hollins and DeMario Douglas must provide reliable receiving options. Defensively, New England will need to pressure Jared Goff and limit Jahmyr Gibbs as well, as Amon-Ra St. Brown, to keep its impressive streak alive.
