The bright lights come on at Gillette Stadium on Thursday night with the New England Patriots (0-0) opening up Week 1 of the preseason against the visiting New York Giants (0-0)
There has been a lot of talk throughout the week regarding the offensive struggles for the Patriots. Well, a run-in with an actual opponent should give the team a little more insight into how things look in a live game.
It will be interesting to see what starters, if any, are able to get onto the field for this game.
Also, what will the offensive play-calling look like with former defensive coordinator Matt Patricia wearing the headset?
