The Patriots thought swapping Bill O'Brien for Matt Patricia would fix the offense. Instead, it has somehow gotten much worse.
This offseason, the didn’t think they needed to do much to get back to having an average — if not slightly above-average — offense. Coach Bill Belichick watched the 2022 team field a below-average offense while being run by a pair of coaches in Joe Judge and Matt Patricia whose expertise resided elsewhere. Advertisement Simply get rid of them, the thinking went, and the Pats should get an instant boost.
What’s maddening when rewatching games is that the playbook is out on this group. Teams play the Patriots with a single high safety and man-to-man coverage across the board. This should be so simple to beat. The Patriots are even calling man-beating concepts. They’re just not able to execute them because the only player with the explosiveness to run by cornerbacks and make defenders miss is sixth-round rookie , who left Sunday’s game with a head injury.
