A month ago we were talking about the New England Patriots possibly being the best team in the AFC. They were winners of seven straight. They had just beaten the Bills on the road in a key divisional clash. The running game and defense were...
Mac Jones is a rookie. There have been many times this season when he hasn’t looked like one, though. He’s avoided mistakes. He’s made big plays when the moment called for one. There’s only one Tom Brady, but if you squint a...
If I would have told you before the Pats-Colts game last Thursday that the winning team would run for 226 yards while only attempting 12 passes, you’d probably think New England came out on top. Turns out, the Colts were able to flip the...
6. 45. 15. 31. Those are the point totals for the Buffalo Bills over the past four weeks. There’s no doubting their potency when things are clicking on offense, but Josh Allen and Co. have become one of the most inconsistent teams in the NFL...
What a difference a year makes, huh? This time last season, the Pats were 4-6. Cam Newton was a shell of his former self. Bill Belichick was approaching his first losing season since 2000, his first year as New England’s head coach. When...
The Pats walloped the Browns 45-7 this past Sunday. The defense stifled Cleveland’s offense. Mac Jones had a nearly perfect day. Jacobi Meyers finally scored his first NFL touchdown. The story of the day though, was Rhamondre Stevenson, the...
Odell Beckham Jr. recently signed with the Los Angeles Rams after being cut by the Cleveland Browns. While the Patriots were among the frontrunners to sign the talented wide receiver, who is in a bit of a career slump, the Rams swooped in to add him...
Last week I tentatively assumed the Patriots would secure their first home win of the season when the Jets came to town this past Sunday. They were 0-4 in Foxborough at that point, somewhat shockingly. But I trusted Bill Belichick to take care of...
The New England Patriots are 2-0 on the road and 0-4 at home. Oh. And. Four. These aren’t your father’s (or, I guess, older brother’s?) Patriots. That much is clear. However, Bill Belichick and his team being winless at Gillette...
“Patriots QB leads team to 4th quarter comeback victory on the road.” That’s been a pretty common headline over the past few decades with Tom Brady at the helm. This past weekend though, Tom Brady was busy taking the Dolphins...
The Patriots will reportedly “pause” tonight’s game when Tom Brady inevitably breaks Drew Brees’s all-time passing yardage record (he needs 68 yards). They will not completely stop the flow of the game and perform a ceremony...
Mac Jones experienced his proverbial “welcome to the NFL” moment today. The Patriots rookie tossed three picks (the second was the result of a bobbled pass) and was hit 11 times in a 28-13 home loss to the Saints. It took him 51 attempts...
The New England Patriots went into the 2020 season with two unusual challenges: A pandemic (just like everyone else), and the departure of the greatest quarterback of all-time, Tom Brady. For just the second time since 2003, the Pats failed to reach...
The year-round NFL media cycle continued Wednesday with the official release of the 2021-22 team schedules. Though we’ve known next year’s Patriots’ opponents since January, the schedule release hypes us up for primetime matchups...
I have a confession – this was the first NFL Draft I’d been invested in and excited for in two decades. For Patriots fans during the Brady era, the Draft has never been the potentially franchise-altering crossroads that it is for so many...
