They're the forgotten team in the AFC East, those New England Patriots. Entrusting the offense with Matt Patricia and Joe Judge tends to do that.
It's about time we tried to make sense of Bill Belichick's crew, so I chat with the exceptional Ollie Connolly of The Read Optional. The UK native covers the X's and O's of American football as well as anyone in the business and just wrote this in-depth piece on the direction of the Patriots offense: https://www.readoptional.com/p/which-bill-obrien-did-bill-belichick
We dig into Ollie's roots -- how he got into the NFL to begin with -- and the direction of the Patriots. Thoroughly enjoyed this conversation.
