Kickoff: The Patriots are back off of last week’s bye week. The last time we saw them was two weeks ago when they lost 10-6 to the Colts in Germany. Many considered that loss the low point of the season but with six games left in the season, it could get worse. The Giants are coming off of a home win over the rival Washington Commanders. Here are four keys…
The highly anticipated Will Grier debut some Patriots fans were hoping for is not going to happen. Grier was released today to open up a roster spot ahead of tomorrow’s game against the Giants. If the Patriots do make a quarterback change moving forward, it is going to be Bailey Zappe who takes over for the beleaguered Mac Jones. Grier’s release comes as a surprise but it really shouldn’t. The…
CHESTNUT HILL- For the third straight week, Boston College no showed and ended up getting blown out by the Miami Hurricanes, 45-20. After an opening drive touchdown to open the game, Thomas Castellanos and the Eagles offense stalled and struggled to consistently put drives together. Defensively, Miami did whatever they wanted to. The Hurricanes took advantage of a battered secondary as quarterback Tyler Van Dyke completed 23-of-36 passes for 290……

When it comes to Mac Jones, the Patriots are in a tough spot. Like it or not, they have to play him.

Does that mean that Jones has been benched? Not necessarily. Jones can still get the bulk of the reps and be the starting…

Thanks to junior quarterback Mikey Galligan who completed 12-of-20 passing for 238 yard and three touchdowns, the Raiders rolled to a 43-20 win…….
MANSFIELD- It is hard to win in football when you cannot possess the ball. On Thursday morning, Foxboro did not run a single play in the first quarter but somehow won the 92nd meeting against rival Mansfield, 30-17.
