The 2016 season was the New England Patriots' 47th in the National Football League (NFL), their 57th overall and their 17th under head coach Bill Belichick. The Patriots ended the regular season with a league-best record of 14–2 and reached a number of milestones along the way: they became the first team originating in the American Football League to reach 500 franchise wins,[i] set the record for most consecutive division titles at eight,[ii] became the seventh team to go 8–0 on the road,[iii] set the record for most pass attempts by a team without an interception to start a season,[4] set the record for fewest interceptions thrown by a team with just 2, and led the league for fewest points allowed (250) for the first time since the 2003 season.[5][6] Belichick moved into fourth place on the list for most wins as a head coach. Brady set the record for most wins by a starting quarterback[7] and the record for the best touchdown–interception ratio in a single season.[iv]

Patriots starting quarterback Tom Brady was suspended for the first four games of the season due to his alleged role in the Deflategate scandal, marking the first time since 2008 that Brady didn't start in a game.[9][10] Under backup quarterbacks Jimmy Garoppolo and Jacoby Brissett, the team went 3–1 during Brady's suspension.

In the playoffs, the Patriots appeared in the AFC Championship Game for a record sixth consecutive year[v] and advanced to a record ninth Super Bowl appearance.[vi] In Super Bowl LI, the Patriots rallied from a 28–3 deficit – with 2:12 left in the third quarter – to win in overtime, with a score of 34–28 against the Atlanta Falcons.[14] This was the first Super Bowl to be decided in overtime, and was the first time that the winner erased a deficit higher than ten points.[15] It was the franchise's fifth Super Bowl title,[16] where Belichick and Brady set record appearances (7) and wins (5) in the Super Bowl for a head coach and a quarterback respectively.[vii] Including the playoffs, the 2016 Patriots had an average per-game point differential of 12 points, still the largest for any of New England's six Super Bowl-winning teams.[21] They also became the first Super Bowl champions with more than 13 regular season wins since their 2004 team. They were the final team to win at least 17 games (regular season and playoffs) under the NFL's 16-game regular season format. The 2016 Patriots ranked #21 on the 100 greatest teams of all time presented by the NFL on its 100th anniversary.[22][23]

For the first time since the 2002 NFL season, the Patriots did not play their intra-conference rival Indianapolis Colts at all during this season.
