Football by McFarlane: The New England Patriots

It is near impossible to talk about anything related to the NFL without mentioning the New England Patriots. Since head coach Bill Belichick and quarterback Tom Brady joined the Patriots ahead of the 2000 season, the franchise has become the poster child for stability and excellence in the NFL.



Belichick and Brady have helped bring four Super Bowl titles to New England since 2001, including a big win against the favored Seattle Seahawks in 2014. It goes without saying that the Patriots have become a huge fan favorite and easily one of the most popular NFL teams of the past two decades. What say we take a look at what McFarlane Toys has produced for all of you loyal Patriots fans, shall we?
