The New England Patriots entered a new era of football this season under head coach Jerod Mayo. Gone are the days of Bill Belichick patrolling the sidelines.
While it has been a bittersweet change, it has brought a breath of fresh air to the franchise. Belichick was unable to find a new head coaching job this offseason and fans have been able to enjoy watching him analyze the game on talk shows.
That being said, it's widely expected that Belichick will be back on an NFL sideline next year. He's likely to be the top candidate for any team looking for a new head coach ahead of the 2025 season.
