The New England Patriots wrapped up a special regular season on Sunday, improving to 14-3 with a blowout victory over the New York Jets. The 2025 regular season was the return of the Patriots, as they reclaimed the throne of the AFC East, and are entering the postseason as the No. 2 seed in the division. New England finished with the same record as the top-seeded Denver Broncos, but the tiebreaker gave Denver the bye.

That means New England will be in action on Wild Card weekend, hosting the Los Angeles Chargers. The Patriots will play the Chargers on Sunday, January 11, at 8 p.
