The New England Patriots organization has more on their collective minds right now than their travel for the upcoming 2015-16 season. Yesterday, Tom Brady appealed his four-game suspension that currently looms as a result of Deflate-gate.
But in an article recently released by CBSSports.com, the Patriots are 15th out of 32 NFL teams in terms of estimated travel miles for the upcoming season. They’re scheduled to travel a total of 15,308 miles, with zero road games going over the 2,000-mile mark.
With the season approaching, below we combine secondary market Patriots ticket prices for their road games according to TiqIQ.com, with some travel logistics from Hipmunk.com for any New England fans looking to attend a game on the road this season.
11/29/2015 | Denver Broncos vs. New England Patriots | Sports Authority Field At Mile High | Average Price: $609.47 | Get-in Price: $218 | Est. Miles: 1,972.6
In perhaps the final Brady vs. Manning matchup between the two future Hall-of-Fame quarterbacks, the Patriots travel to Denver for the most expensive New England road game of the season. Boston flights to Denver will take around four-and-a-half hours, with the cheapest round trip option costing just over $600 on Hipmunk.
10/11/2015 | Dallas Cowboys vs. New England Patriots | AT&T Stadium | Average Price: $413.53| Get-in Price: $173 | Est. Miles: 1,756
The Patriots take on Tony Romo and America’s Team in an October matchup where Brady will be suited up no matter how the appeal process plays out. Flights to Dallas from Boston cost $273.70 for a round trip through Hipmunk, costing significantly less than the trip to Denver. Based on how high-powered each offense is, there could be a ton of points in this affair.
12/13/2015 | Houston Texas vs. New England Patriots | NRG Stadium | Average Price: $326.06 | Get-in Price: $111 | Est. Miles: 1,835.8
The Patriots must travel to the state of Texas twice this season, this time in December to face the 2014 NFL Defensive MVP J.J. Watt and his Houston Texas. It’s a touch further than Dallas, but a round trip costs a little less, coming in at $226.20 through Hipmunk. With a cheaper flight cost and average ticket and get-in price, the trip to Houston may be more valuable than attending the game at AT&T Stadium against the Cowboys.
