The 2023 NFL season has been a disaster for the New England Patriots as they’ve looked like a shell of the team that fans have been accustomed to seeing for years.
Week 10 represented a new low for the Patriots as they lost to the Indianapolis Colts 10-6 overseas in Frankfurt, Germany and now sit at 2-8 on the season.
Mac Jones continued to show he may not be the answer at quarterback for New England as he was sacked numerous times and made terrible decisions with the football.
Jones was eventually benched for Bailey Zappe, but the backup didn’t fare any better as he threw an interception late in the game that sealed the Patriots’ fate.
It’s still jarring to see a Bill Belichick team play so poorly on both sides of the football, but this is the reality the New England organization faces.
Shortly after the game ended, fans teed off on the Patriots and their awful performance via Bleacher Report.

That was the worst national football league game I have ever watched.
Sorry about the Germany.

It’s hard to blame the fans for being so negative given that New England hasn’t shown them that there’s anything worth salvaging.
People who have watched the Patriots this year have to admit that the offense is not that good, though the defense has had its moments.
Given their record, New England has to be thinking about the future and widespread changes should be in store given how the past few years have looked.
Belichick is likely to remain the head coach because of the extension he signed in the offseason, but the roster should be drastically different.
