The 2025 season is evolving, and so is the New England Patriots' offensive line. To date, their pass-blocking has been above expectations, except for a plethora of sacks allowed, but their run-blocking has lagged significantly. They're not getting the run game going, and it's on Head Coach Mike Vrabel and his offensive staff to get that straightened out.
The team eked out a tight win, 25-19, against the Saints, but the running game left a lot to be desired. When you have a young passing quarterback like Drake Maye, who's threatening to take the top off the NFL, the run game can tend to get overlooked.
