The 1990 New England Patriots season was the team's 31st, and 21st in the National Football League. It was the first and only season for head coach Rod Rust.
The Patriots finished the season with a record of one win and fifteen losses, and finished last in the AFC East division. Notably, they lost a nationally-televised game to the Washington Redskins in which they were down 9–0 without the Redskins running a single offensive play.[1]
The Patriots's negative-265 point-differential (181 points scored, 446 points surrendered) was the worst total of the 1990s.[2] The 1990 Patriots are one of only two teams in NFL history to play 11 games in a single season in which they never led at any point in the contest.[3]

Lisa Olson controversy
Main article: Lisa Olson#Sexual Harassment Incident
The day after the Patriots' only victory of the season, tight end Zeke Mowatt, running back Robert Perryman and wide receiver Michael Timpson stood in front of Boston Globe reporter Lisa Olson semi-naked and sexually harassed her in the Patriots' locker room at Foxboro Stadium.[citation needed] The incident proved a major embarrassment for the franchise, and the team lost its final 14 games, and was accused of quitting in most of the losses.[citation needed]
