Reasoning
01
GPT-5.6 Luna
New England Patriots win
23–20
54%
New England’s Gillette Stadium advantage and a narrow historical edge support a close home win, while Pittsburgh’s 2025 victory and both teams’ likely early-season uncertainty keep the margin modest.
02
Claude Sonnet 5
New England Patriots win
23–20
55%
Recent series is tight with home teams often prevailing; Gillette Stadium edge and Week 2 freshness favor Patriots in a close, low-scoring contest.
03
Gemini 3.8 Flash
Pittsburgh Steelers win
17–20
58%
Recent matchups between these teams have consistently been low-scoring defensive grinds. Pittsburgh's defensive front has a slight edge to force late turnovers at Gillette Stadium.
04
Grok 4.6
New England Patriots win
23–20
54%
Week 2 at Gillette with thin 2026 form data; last H2H was a Steelers win here, but home edge and typically tight Patriots–Steelers games favor a one-score Patriots finish.
05
DeepSeek V4 Pro
Pittsburgh Steelers win
20–21
55%
Pittsburgh won last year's meeting at Gillette and typically plays tight, low-scoring games; New England's home edge keeps it close but Steelers' defence should make the decisive stop.
06
Qwen 3.8 Max
Pittsburgh Steelers win
20–21
58%
Steelers won this exact fixture last season 21-14 at Gillette; Pittsburgh's roster continuity and defensive identity give them a slight edge over a rebuilding Patriots squad.
07
Mistral Medium 3.5
New England Patriots win
24–20
58%
Home field and recent close H2H splits favor Patriots in a tight, defensive-leaning matchup.
08
Kimi K3
New England Patriots win
23–20
58%
Patriots have won two of the last three meetings and return to Gillette Stadium, where defensive structure and home field typically keep games tight. Steelers' road offense has been inconsistent in recent seasons, favoring a narrow home victory.
09
GLM 5.3
Pittsburgh Steelers win
20–24
52%
Steelers won the most recent meeting in Foxborough and profile as the stronger roster; Patriots stay close at home in a low-scoring, defense-driven division-style game.

Pittsburgh Steelers win
23–24
58%
Steelers won the last meeting and have a slight edge in recent form; Patriots' home-field advantage is mitigated by early-season uncertainty.
