"Vrabel and his staff invested heavily in shoring up the unit. Veteran right tackle Morgan Moses provides stability, while they drafted left tackle Will Campbell from LSU with the 4th overall pick and drafted Jared Wilson from Georgia in the 3rd round to develop into reliable contributors. This group is far better equipped to pave the way for Rhamondre Stevenson and rookie TreVeyon Henderson, who form a physical and versatile backfield duo."
"If the Raiders are going to pull off the upset, it will likely be through Maxx Crosby. Carroll knows how to unleash an elite pass rusher, and Crosby remains one of the most disruptive forces in football. The Patriots' revamped offensive line is built for this challenge. By keeping Crosby in check, even partially, New England can prevent him from dictating the game. That's where Moses' veteran savvy and the improved communication of the group come into play."
Mike Vrabel's arrival in Foxborough ushers in a toughness-focused era emphasizing balance and smart football. New England stabilized a revolving offensive line, adding veteran tackle Morgan Moses and drafting left tackle Will Campbell and third-round guard Jared Wilson to build continuity. The improved front aims to create lanes for Rhamondre Stevenson and rookie TreVeyon Henderson, forming a physical, versatile backfield. Containing Raiders pass rusher Maxx Crosby is essential to prevent him from dictating the game. Defensive-minded coach Pete Carroll returns to the Raiders, but the Patriots’ investments in line stability and communication position them to protect second-year quarterback Drake Maye.
