The New England Patriots are arguably the worst crew within the NFL this season, and over the previous few years, they’ve found how exhausting it’s to rebuild after making a dynasty.
Their present roster is poor in nearly each space, and it probably will take them years to change into a aggressive crew once more.
There have already been rumors that new head coach Jerod Mayo could possibly be on the recent seat, however ESPN insider Adam Schefter stated it’s unlikely he would lose his job so quickly.
“You’d need to see lots to maneuver on from a man after one 12 months. So, whereas I by no means rule out something on this league, that also would shock me some,” Schefter stated, through WEEI Afternoon Present.

As Schefter stated, Patriots proprietor Robert Kraft has spoken in a complimentary method about Mayo, and that might make firing him within the coming months much more of a rash choice.
In professional sports activities, coaches are sometimes the casualty of a crew taking part in very poorly over an prolonged stretch, and it isn’t at all times their fault their crew underperforms.
The one glimmer of hope proper now for New England is rookie quarterback Drake Maye, the No. 3 general decide within the 2024 NFL Draft, who was given the beginning job previous to Week 6 regardless of many saying the crew merely didn’t have the infrastructure to maintain him secure and sound.
In his two begins, Maye has put up 519 passing yards, 5 passing touchdowns and two interceptions.
Persistence could possibly be the important thing for this once-proud franchise because it appears to determine a brand new identification in its fifth season with out legendary quarterback Tom Brady.
