FOXBOROUGH, Mass. -- Quick-hit thoughts and notes around the New England Patriots and NFL:
1. QB vision & Brissett: When a team is 3-10 like the Patriots, the list of things that haven't gone according to plan is longer than the list of things that have. Quarterback tops the latter list.
Multiple moves at the position -- signing veteran Jacoby Brissett as a free agent, drafting Drake Maye No. 3 overall, and to a lesser degree having 2024 sixth-round pick Joe Milton III as a scout team developmental prospect -- have been a silver lining in a challenging season.
