Suffice it to say that owner Robert Kraft hasn’t been happy with how the New England Patriots’ recent seasons have ended.
The Patriots have not won a playoff game since the 2018 season when they won the Super Bowl. That, in a way, illuminates how high of a standard Kraft holds for New England. That’s not a bad four-year stretch. But over the last three seasons (extending into Tom Brady’s last season), the Patriots have appeared in two postseasons and lost their opener in both 2019 and 2021.
“I’m a Patriot fan big-time first,” Kraft said during a meeting with the media at owner’s meetings on Thursday, via ESPN’s Mike Reiss. “And more than anything, it bothers me that we haven’t been able to win a playoff game in the last three years.”
