Time is almost up to watch a live stream of Chiefs vs Patriots. And it will catch a Kansas City team looking to bounce back (8-5) against a New England squad trying to build off a strong win last week (3-10). Patrick Mahomes leads his Chiefs into Foxborough to take on Bailey Zappe and the Patriots for this NFL Live stream.

If the Patriots want to end the 2023 season with some hope for next year, the good vibe could have started with their 21-18 win over the Steelers last week. Quarterback Bailey Zappe had his best performance of the season, throwing for 240 yards and three touchdowns on 19/28 passing. It was his fourth career start and second this season. His overall record as a starter is 3-1.

Besides the strong play of the quarterback, the Pats had several key contributors. Running back Ezekiel Elliott gained 140 yards of total offense, including a receiving touchdown, tight end Hunter Henry scored twice, and wideout Juju Smith Schuster caught four passes for 90 yards. A total of four Patriots contributed to the win with 15 or more yards on the ground.

While the offense looks to have found something in New England, the defense will try to stay the course against Patrick Mahomes and the Chiefs. If Kansas City fans are looking for a one-on-one battle with the denizens of the basement, this may not be that kind of opponent.

The Chiefs offense in particular has struggled this season. While Kansas City is averaging fewer touchdowns per game than a year ago, they are facing a team that has not allowed more than 21 points in five straight games. In addition, Mahomes is coming off his third game in four weeks with a passer rating of 80 points or less; the two-time MVP has had six such games this season. One more such game would tie his total from the past two seasons.

DraftKings has the Chiefs as 9-point road favorites against the Patriots and 39.5 points over/under.

With nothing scheduled for Taylor Swift's Eras tour until after the new year, we know that TayTay will have some free time on her schedule. It's a football game with Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce.

There are no reports on whether Swift will be at Gillette Stadium, but our guess is that Swift will be in Foxboro to watch her seventh Chiefs game since her relationship with Kelce began. Also, Swift is just celebrating her 34th birthday in New York City, which is a short jet ride from Foxboro.

Kansas City is currently on a losing streak for the first time in the Swift era, losing to Taylor and the Packers at Lambeau two weeks ago and last week at Arrowhead, also with Swift.

The Chiefs are 4-2 when Swift is in attendance.
