The New England Patriots didn’t lead the league in much in 2024 — at least not anything worth bragging about.
It’s a slightly different story as the NFL nears the offseason.
Clearly, this is a massive, make-or-break spring coming up for New England. The Patriots are coming off consecutive 4-13 seasons, the former leading to Bill Belichick’s dismissal, the latter costing Jerod Mayo his job after one season. New England seemingly made the right move to address that area of need by hiring Mike Vrabel to be its third head coach in as many years.
