Can Matt Patricia Break The Belichick Curse?<em></em>

The Patriots Are Slllooooowwwww

No Patriots Player Wants To Go On The Record As Saying Bill Belichick Is Fun
This week, Patriots head coach Bill Belichick wrapped up the team’s voluntary OTAs a little early as a little treat, and he also set up an off-the-field activity for his players.
