The New England Patriots have lacked the ability to truly compete in the modern NFL as the team fell to 1-4 after a devastating 34-0 loss to the New Orleans Saints on Sunday.
Since the departure of Tom Brady in 2019, New England has just one postseason appearance and continues to fall behind top talent in the AFC. The last two losses by a combined score of 72-3 have shown the peak of the decline.
On Monday, Mike Florio and Chris Simms of NBC’s “Pro Football Talk” discussed the shortcomings for the new Patriots under Bill Belichick.
