The New England Patriots appear to be trending in the right direction after a 2-2 start to the 2025 regular season, and the good news is that some of the team's big-name players have been right in the driver's seat. Quarterback Drake Maye has shown clear signs of a Year 2 jump, entering Week 5 ranked sixth in the NFL in passing yards (988), tied for eighth in touchdown passes (7), and fifth overall in passer rating (109.4). Top free agent signings on defense, like defensive end Milton Williams and EDGE rusher Harold Landry, have already proven to be difference-makers. And the team has also gotten solid returns from its 2025 rookie class, with No. 4 overall pick Will Campbell at the forefront.

We know Chelsea don't mind spending big and it'll be the case again in January. From what I hear, the manager isn't completely happy with his squad if you can believe it after how many player they've brought in already. There are still positions he wants to improve because they're still not ready to challenge for the title. There's a clear weakness in the team, there have been questions asked about the centre-backs and the goalkeeper, that tells you where their problems are.
