New England Patriots bold predictions for Week 12 against the Cardinals.

After a disappointing loss last Sunday, the New England Patriots return to the field in Week 12 to take on a tough NFC opponent at Gillette Stadium in Foxborough.

In the fresh week of games on Thanksgiving week, New England returns back to its home field while welcoming in the Arizona Cardinals on Sunday afternoon on FOX.

The Patriots come into the contest with a record of 4-6 overall, failing to climb back to the .500 mark a week ago when it fell 27-21 on the road against the Houston Texans.

In that game, New England was able to get out to decent start early in the first half, only giving up 14 points in the second quarter to trail Houston 21-10 going into halftime.

In the second half, the Patriots tried to battle back into things with outscoring the Texans 10-6 over the final two quarters but fell six points short of doing that to suffer the sixth loss of the year while snapping a two-game winning streak that they came into the game with.

On the other side of the field in Week 12, New England will host an Arizona squad that has been very up and down so far in 2020, carrying a 6-4 record going into the weekend’s slate of games around the league.

The Cardinals are most recently coming off of a 28-21 loss on the road against the Seattle Seahawks on Thursday Night Football in Week 11, having dropped two of their last three games leading into Week 12.

In that contest in Seattle, Arizona fell behind 16-7 going into halftime and tried to put together a late-game comeback only to fall short against a top-notch Seahawks squad on their home field of Lumen Field in Seattle.

With both the Patriots and Cardinals looking to get back into the win column in Week 12, here are three studs and duds that will take place for New England on Sunday afternoon in Foxborough.
