It appears that NE hasn't covered the spread as a FAV in any of their most recent SB appearances.
They covered as a +1 dog vs SEA
Will they cover as -3 FAV or do the books think otherwise?

Since 2000, six teams with the NFL’s highest-scoring offense have reached the Super Bowl. Only one of those six teams won the title: the 2009 New Orleans Saints.

The 1989 49ers are the lone top scoring offense to beat the top scoring defense in the Super Bowl (Broncos).

New England, for all of its apparent defensive flaws, boasted the NFL’s top-ranked scoring defense in 2016, allowing just 15.6 points per game. Super Bowl LI will mark just sixth meeting between the league’s top offense and top defense, and according to ESPN, the top defense has won four of the last five, with the 1989 San Francisco 49ers as the lone exception.

The Patriots, of course, should know: They averaged a ridiculous 36.8 points per game during their undefeated 2007 campaign but were upset in Super Bowl XLII by a New York Giants team that held them to just 14 points. And in all four of its championship seasons, New England’s defense has ranked eighth in the NFL or better in points allowed.

99 Rams should be included in that I'd think. In 99 the Rams were 1st team since 1951 to win a SB as a dome team. That SB was played at? You guessed it! Georgia dome.
