It's the dawn of a new era for the New England Patriots, who saw Bill Belichick depart the franchise after 24 seasons. The team secured its first win under new head coach Jerod Mayo on Sunday after defeating the Cincinnati Bengals 16–10.
Heading into the game, the Patriots were not expected to come out on top. Led by veteran quarterback Jacoby Brissett, the team battled throughout all four quarters to get off to a 1–0 start to the year.
