It's already Week 13 of the 2024 NFL season, and the Patriots have had a far more disappointing year than even the most cynical analysts or fans could have predicted. They weren't projected to be a competitive team due to the significant changes made to the coaching staff and roster, but there was some optimism that they would, at the very least, be better than they were one year ago.
In some ways, they are, certainly with replacing Mac Jones with Drake Maye. But in almost every other aspect, the team feels like it has gotten worse.
That makes their usual matchup with the Colts less exciting, especially considering how poorly they played them last season. It was the rumored catalyst that solidified Robert Kraft's decision to fire Bill Belichick after two decades. Unfortunately, for Jerod Mayo, there's a lot on the line this time around, too.
The new coaching staff has been questioned a lot this year, with criticism surrounding their decision-making and inexperience in the positions they were hired for. That has started a lot of rumors regarding ownership potentially deciding to move on from some of them at the end of the year, including Mayo, so a win over the Colts could help deter that for at least a few weeks unless they're able to stack some wins to end the year.
