7-9 wins and I am happy.
I can see anywhere from 6-11 wins. I don’t think the division is that good, and they definitely could have finished with 6-7 wins last year if they showed more discipline.
Need to get Maye some weapons.

For sure we need weapons and I agree with a competent coaching staff we would have won more last season. Not a single one of them have been kept, Mayo was given a job he was not prepared for and thankfully Kraft acknowledged that and cut ties asap. I'm expecting some grit and better football under Vrabel and the new coaching team
I'm not the biggest Kraft fan, but I do think he ended up making the correct decision cutting ties with Mayo. I don't think last season was all on Mayo and I believe people gave him too much shyt. However, as the season went on, more and more issues started to become apparent. I understand people look at it as a black coach only getting on year, but when you add in the factor that Vrabel was available and was a former Patriots player, the writing was on the wall for Mayo. It's always a tough decision to cut ties quickly or continue to give chances.
There are multiple games I can think of now that the Patriots could have won last year with better discipline. Now, a lot of that discipline falls on the players, and not just the coach.
If the defense stays healthy, I think this can be one of the best defenses in the league if they end up getting Abdul-Carter.
Thoughts on Diggs?
I'll say that if there is one WR that I would consider a "diva" or team cancer over the past ten years, it would be Diggs. With that being said, if he is healthy, I think this could be great for Drake Maye and the offense. Didn't want to see them going into the year with their current WR group. I'm not against them brining in Keenan Allen if they can make it work.

If he's healthy and can get on the field, he's gonna be our most productive WR.
They have plenty of cap space, go spend it.
Agreed. I have zero issue with them spending the money on Diggs. Needed to get Maye a #1 WR.
It seems like they had a very good draft, but we’ll find out once the players actually take the field.
I really like what they’ve done this offseason. Need to put it all together though.
I don’t think 10+ wins in out of the question.

Playoff contention.
Give me an O/U in wins between both teams

McD offense is back. Get ready for a lot of dink and dunk. Brady lived off of this.
We're gonna see lots of high percentage throws to RBs. Looking forward to Trey on a screen and running it to the house.

McD might be a shytty HC, but he's an elite OC. If he can make Mac look like an NFL QB, Maye might be on his way
