The New England Patriots are a team to watch heading into the 2025 season. The franchise has a new head coach in Mike Vrabel, a new elite wide receiver in Stefon Diggs, a revamped defensive unit, and another campaign of Drake Maye leading the offense.The Patriots had a terrible 2024 regular season, finishing 4-13 and bottom of the AFC East.
