Hopes are high for the New England Patriots now just a few weeks out from the 2025 season opener.
The key driver, of course, has been Mike Vrabel’s leadership and ability to assemble a respectable coaching staff. The team also splurged in free agency for some key pieces, like wide receiver Stefon Diggs and defensive tackle Milton Williams.
Oh, and the Patriots literally have nowhere to go but up following consecutive 4-13, last-place finishes in the AFC East.
Most prognosticators are expecting the Patriots to finish anywhere from around .500 to potentially double-digit wins.
