The New England Patriots and the Atlanta Falcons will meet for the first time since a Thursday Night Football game on Nov. 18, 2021 in Atlanta, a 25-0 New England victory. The Falcons will travel to Gillette Stadium for the third time overall and for the first time since a 23-7 New England win on Oct. 22, 2017.
The Patriots enter this week with a streak of seven straight wins against the Falcons, including a come-from-behind 34-28 overtime win in Super Bowl LI against the Falcons.
The Patriots lead the all-time series with a 10-6 record, including a 4-2 record in home games and 2-0 record in games played in Gillette Stadium following a 26-10 win on Sept. 27, 2009 and a 23-7 win on Oct. 22, 2017.
The Patriots beat the Falcons, 34-28 in overtime in Super Bowl LI after overcoming a 28-3 deficit on Feb. 5, 2017 in Houston, Texas.
The Patriots have won the last six times the teams have played in the regular season. Prior to those six wins, the Patriots had suffered four straight losses to the Falcons, dating back to 1989.
