"The New England Patriots are back in the Super Bowl, much to the chagrin of the other 31 fanbases in the NFL. After complaining about the Kansas City Chiefs making the Super Bowl nearly every year, they see the Patriots make their return, in the first year with Mike Vrabel as head coach and Drake Maye as quarterback. The team has been subject to criticism, mostly due to their path to the big game. The AFC side of the bracket was noticeably weaker than in years past, mostly due to the absences of Patrick Mahomes, Lamar Jackson, and Joe Burrow."
"I'm looking at your shield, your helmet, and it ain't got no marks in it, Newton said, h/t Boston.com. Your sword don't got no blood on it, really. I'm looking at the Rams' sword, I'm looking at the Seattle Seahawks, they've got some real character-building games going on the road and figuring it out."
"During an appearance on WEEI on Super Bowl 60 radio row, Milton was asked about Newton's comments about the Patriots being "fool's gold" due to their "easy" regular season schedule and playoff path. Milton simply said, "I don't listen to nothing Cam says." Straightforward and to the point, all while shaking his head. Milton does not even entertain what Newton says in the media."
The New England Patriots returned to Super Bowl 60 with Mike Vrabel in his first year as head coach and Drake Maye at quarterback. The team's route to the game attracted criticism because the AFC bracket lacked several star quarterbacks, including Patrick Mahomes, Lamar Jackson, and Joe Burrow. Former Patriots quarterback Cam Newton publicly questioned the Patriots' character and resume, contrasting their path with other teams' road tests. Quarterback Joe Milton rejected Newton's critique on WEEI, saying he does not listen to Newton, and media coverage captured Milton's blunt dismissal.
