Veteran NFL reporter Greg Bedard of the Boston Sports Journal (bostonsportsjournal.com) joins the pod to break down the New England Patriots’ magical Super Bowl run with Drake Maye and Mike Vrabel, and analyze pressing topics this offseason. Before Bedard (@GregABedard on X) dives into the Patriots, the former Sports Illustrated scribe opines on the hot-button topic centering on the NFL’s recent arbitration victory over the NFL Players Association’s annual public release of player report cards (2:00). Bedard pulls no punches when criticizing “clueless” NFL owners. He then provides in-depth analysis of the Patriots 2025 campaign and what lies ahead this offseason.
Highlights of the episode:

• Will the Patriots cut Stefon Diggs (13:58) and trade for Eagles star wide receiver A.J. Brown? (17:40)
• A free agent tight end and offensive lineman to keep an eye on, including poaching a former first-round pick of the New York Jets (24:05)
• The Washington Commanders cautionary tale from last season that might impact how the Patriots brain trust operates in the next few months (18:30)
• Ranking the Patriots biggest offseason needs (20:52)
• Will young star cornerback Christian Gonzalez get a contract extension? (33:15)
• Breaking down Drake Maye’s second season and how to strategically build around him (38:00)

• Mike Vrabel’s secret sauce in his first year as Patriots head coach (50:32)
