Welcome to you both from NH, and yes I am a Patriots fan.
Sorry it took me this long to respond but I typically Practice, play and if there is time, I check the forum.
If you haven't figured it out yet the best way to get going is to join a group that is forming. You will find this on the main menu
page. Another way is to go to the players section. All currently active players are listed first with a green dot
and there is an "Invite" button. Don't get discouraged if people decline, this generally means that they are already
playing in a group.
Hope this helps
