The New England Patriots have not won consecutive games since November 2022, but they have a chance to do so this week against the Pittsburgh Steelers.

Patriots head coach Mike Vrabel was asked about the importance of winning consecutive games for the first time in three years and how it can help in building the team’s culture.

“It’s always important to win as many games as you possibly can,” Vrabel said Wednesday. “There’s a lot of stats here, guys, that I’m not familiar with, nor am I concerned with. The focus is trying to build some consistency, which would then lead to confidence, and continue to build on what we did, improve the things that we have to fix, and then continue to eliminate some of the things that we feel like could get you beat.

“So, I’m excited about doing that today, through meetings and practice, and getting them to get ready for a new opponent, just like we did last week. We cleared the deck, and we’re focused on the next opponent.”

Vrabel was not part of the Patriots for the last three seasons, so he shouldn’t be too concerned about the team’s struggles to win consecutive games.
