Finally, the 2026 NFL season starts.
Who’s going to win it all?
Who’s going to take home the awards?
Where are the Patriots going to finish?
Let’s recap how we’ve done on the Patriots in the past few seasons…
2025: Bedard 9-8; Giardi 8-9. Reality: 14-3. … Yeah, who saw the greatest injury luck ever coming?
2024: Bedard 9-8; Giardi 5-12. Reality: 4-13. … Oops, Bedard. Obviously I was very high on Jerod Mayo.
2023: Bedard 7-10; Giardi 8-9. Reality: 4-13. … Meh
