"On paper, the remaining schedule for the New England Patriots is flat-out easy. Frankly, it's insanely easy, and while there is no such thing as a guaranteed win in today's NFL, it's clear that the Patriots have quite a bit of those here as the season continues. The Pats have made a ton of changes to their franchise recently, and most of them seem to be panning out."
"The Patriots are heading to Tennessee to face the Titans in Week 7, and this is obviously a bit of a homecoming game for Mike Vrabel, as the Titans hired him as their head coach years ago, and he carved out a pretty solid tenure with that franchise, but this team has gotten much worse since Vrabel departed, and they honestly hit a new level of dysfunction on Monday."
The New England Patriots benefit from an unusually easy remaining schedule while roster and coaching investments have visibly improved team performance. Key moves include upgrades to the offensive line, several free agent additions, and the hiring of Mike Vrabel, which have collectively boosted the team's competitiveness in the AFC. The Patriots travel to Tennessee in Week 7, where Vrabel faces his former franchise. The Titans fired Brian Callahan after a 1-5 start and 4-19 overall, marking the first in-season head coaching change of 2025 and raising the potential for a trap game.
