The New England Patriots, winners of two of the last four Super Bowls, enter the 2018 season as one of the favorites to again capture the Vince Lombardi Trophy: the team has a deep team across most of the board (looking at you, wide receiver position), and has some of the NFL’s best players on offense, defense and special teams under contract. Despite some questions still, the 2018 Patriots are projected to be a good football team.
You would not think that, however, when judging it solely by ESPN’s list of the best 100 players in the NFL right now.
