"[My] impressions are, they definitely looked like they improved from Week 1 to Week 2," Edelman told reporters on Friday, ( via MassLive's Karen Guregian). "I think it's going to be a long process. Rome wasn't built overnight."
""It's very tough to win in this game. I'm excited with where the offense is going," Edelman said. "You look at their numbers last week, compared with the week before and I think they were 7-for-13 or 12 on third down, 3 of 4 in the red area. So those are the key things I like to look at to see if a team is improving, at least offensively."
Julian Edelman observed clear improvement in the Patriots from Week 1 to Week 2 and urged patience during the team's rebuild. The Patriots lost 20-13 to the Raiders in Week 1 then beat the Dolphins 33-27 in Week 2. Preseason projections gave the Patriots solid playoff odds and an 8.5 win total, but Edelman said a missed postseason would not be disastrous. Edelman credited quarterback Drake Maye for the offensive swing and highlighted better third-down and red-zone efficiency as indicators of offensive progress and future promise.
