What are the odds Patriots finish last in NFL?
On Thursday’s Felger & Mazz program, Joe Murray explains why he thinks the New England Patriots will finish last in the NFL next season.
Patriots Worst Team?
Parts of conversation abbreviated for clarity.
Joe Murray: My take is the Patriots are going to be the worst team in the NFL this year, and you can bet on it right now at DraftKings at +345.
Last year, I told you Bill O’Brien was a suspect. It didn’t work out. I still don’t I still feel like I won the argument. What even was the argument, though? That the gap between Bailey Zappe and Mac Jones wasn’t that big.
I don’t think Jerod Mayo can coach. I don’t know that. We’re going to find out. That’s why they play the games. Their current schedule is tough though. The state of the AFC is strong. Their quarterback and offensive line are young players. Plus, their offseason was really bad.
Matt McCarthy: Suspect?
Joe Murray: It was very bad, and it was worse than suspected.
I keep going back to Mayo, making the joke of the orange juice. And then spilling the orange juice after making the joke. That’s how their offseason went. I think that’s exactly how their football season is going to go.
This is why we do a talk show, though. Some agree, some don’t. I’m putting my money where my mouth is. The Patriots will be the worst team in the NFL this year.
But it’s not a bad thing. I think they’re going to get the number one overall pick or a top pick. And that will be very good for Drake Maye and the team going forward. This is what I’m saying today, June 27th.
Patriots will be the worst team in the NFL. You can bet on it right now at DraftKings.
Matt McCarthy: Disagree. I don’t think they’re as bad as the Panthers. I think their defense is perhaps slightly overrated but also good enough that they will win more than a handful of games.
They should not be the worst team in the NFL.
