The end of the NFL regular season means that the Patriots list of opponents is set for next year.

New England will play eight home games and nine road games next season after hosting nine games at Gillette Stadium this year. Among the highlights are the Patriots first-ever trip to Las Vegas to face the Raiders and their first trip to Green Bay since Nov. 2014.

In addition to their six games against divisional opponents, the Patriots will battle the AFC North and NFC North in 2022. That group of games includes trips to Cleveland, Pittsburgh, Green Bay and Minnesota and home dates with Baltimore, Cincinnati, Chicago and Detroit. New England will also face off with three teams that finished second in their divisions: the Colts (home), Cardinals (road) and Raiders (road). The matchup with Arizona is the extra 17th game that was introduced this year.

In total, the Patriots will play seven of their 17 games against teams that made the playoffs in 2021, including five on the road. Theres also the possibility they play a home game in Germany, according to multiple reports.
