The New England Patriots are going through their worst season since the earth began to cool. OK, that's not really the case, but after more than two decades of being great and a few seasons of being mediocre, this season is just a wreck. Blame management, injuries, or lack of good quarterback play; the point is there are a bunch of issues to fix. The positive part is that the Patriots are set up well in terms of cap space in 2024, as New England currently has about $75 million to spend, the third-most in the NFL. New England obviously does not have a quarterback on the roster that will demand a high-dollar contract in a few years, either. Say what you will about Mac Jones, but even if he improves a little, he isn't going to get paid $30-40 million in 2027.
