As the NFL season hits its midway point, New England Patriots fans are left wondering just how much worse it can get for their team.
The Patriots currently sit at a dismal 2-7 record, and the decision to keep sending out struggling quarterback Mac Jones each week, despite his evident struggles, is puzzling. Head coach Bill Belichick, once renowned for his golden touch, seems to have lost his magic as his game plans continue to backfire. It’s a level of struggle not seen from the Patriots in over two decades.
While there’s a glimmer of hope for the Patriots to turn things around against the Indianapolis Colts, it’s worth noting that the Colts, led by Gardner Minshew due to an injury to their first-round draft pick, have shown fighting spirit. The Colts’ recent victory against the Carolina Panthers, ending a three-game losing streak, has pushed them to a 4-5 season record.
The Patriots may not be as beleaguered as the Panthers, but they’re not far off. As the NFL’s international slate comes to a close with this game in Frankfort, the question remains: Will the Patriots start their ascent from the depths of their current rut, or will the Colts secure another punishing victory against a struggling team?
