Bob and Jonathan Kraft have sent this email to Patriots Season Ticket Holders:

 

''Unfortunately, our season ended sooner than we hoped yesterday afternoon in Buffalo. 

While we always want to be playing games with playoff implacations in Week 18, our expectation was to perform better throughout the season and advance through the playoffs. 

We can assure you that no one in this organization is satisfied with the results from this past season. 

 

In the weeks ahead, we will be making critical evaluations of all elements of our football operations as we strive to improve and return to the playoffs next year. 

 

When we welcome you back for the 2023 season, we anticipate presenting you with an improved product on the field, as well as many exciting new features and additions to Gillette Stadium,.

 

You have helped create a dominant home-field advantage over the past 20 years, and we look forward to creating many more memorable moments in the years ahead.
