We've gathered the Globe team that will cover the Patriots this fall for a discussion of the franchise in the post-Tom Brady era and to preview what is sure to be a unique season in Foxborough.
The session features a conversation about all the changes that have taken place since Brady went to Tampa Bay, including how the pandemic has affected Bill Belichick’s preparation, the opt-out decisions by a few key players and the potential impact of COVID-19 on the season. Oh, and a former league MVP, Cam Newton, is the new quarterback. What does Superman have left?Â
