Ex-Patriots Exec Explains How Ernie Adams’ Absence Has Hurt New England

The Patriots hit rock bottom when they were shut out by the New Orleans Saints at Gillette Stadium last Sunday, and everyone in New England is trying to figure out where things went wrong.

Bill Belichick and Mac Jones took the brunt of the blame after the Week 5 loss, but the duo stood firm Monday and hoped to turn the Patriots’ season around this Sunday against the Las Vegas Raiders.

Others around the league believe the end is near for Belichick and New England should draft Jones’ successor in the 2024 NFL Draft.
