Sergio Estrada-Imagn Images For the second straight week, the Patriots were not competitive in a 30-13 loss to the San Francisco 49ers. Jacoby Brissett and the offense continue to struggle while the defense is all of a sudden banged up and inconsistent. It all adds up to a second consecutive loss. Here are seven thoughts on the loss to San Francisco. 1. Offensive futility: The offense continues to be a…
The Patriots visit the 49ers today in what is the ultimate match-up game. San Francisco presents a variety of problems at multiple positions. The offensive line will have their hands full with Nick Bosa and the rest of the defense. It will be tough for them to Left Tackle vs. Nick Bosa: It doesn’t matter who lines up across from Bosa in this game, he will win one on one….
Kickoff: Who would have thought these two teams would have the same record going into this game. Alas, here we are. The Patriots will be looking to bounce back after an abysmal loss to the Jets on Thursday Night Football. For the 49ers, they have lost two in a row including a heartbreaker to the Rams last week. The injuries, especially on offense appear to be catching up to them….
PROVIDENCE- All appeared lost for the Brown Bears on Saturday afternoon when Harvard was lining up to kick a late field goal that would have put the Crimson up eight with under one minute left. Instead, an errant snap went over the head of the Crimson punter/holder Sebastian Tasko and it was scooped up by Bears defensive back Nick Hudson who returned it to the Crimson 27.
On the first play from scrimmage, senior quarterback Jake Willcox hit fellow senior wide receiver Mark Mahoney on a 27 yard touchdown pass down the right sideline to put the Bears up 29-28. The two would connect again on the two point conversation to make 31-28 Bears.
Kickoff: The Huskies will look to make it two in a row when they host the Buffalo Bills out of the MAC. After rushing for a school record 421 yards last week, it will be tough to replicate that dominate of a performance this week but the Huskies are feeling it and ready to go on a run on this six game home stand.
MICHAEL REAVES / GETTY IMAGES FOXBOROUGH- It is no secret that the Patriots will have their hands full on Sunday when they take on the San Francisco 49ers. The Shanahan, McVay version of the west coast offense is taking over football. Heck, even the Patriots are running it now. The biggest challenge with the offense is defending all of the movement and motion which makes it hard on a defense…
