Patriots: Positive steps taken in first preseason game
FOXBOROUGH – After two weeks of dissecting practices, we finally got to see some real football at Gillette Stadium on Thursday night when the Giants visited for the first preseason game. There’s still a lot of questions surrounding the team since the starters didn’t play, but we did learn a bit more about some of the guys fighting for jobs in the 23-21 loss. Simply put, preseason wins and losses…
Patriots: James White announces his retirement, leaves a lasting legacy
Photo: Mark J. Rebilas/USA Today Another piece of the dynasty is riding off into the sunset. James White announced his retirement from the NFL on Thursday morning. White played his entire nine-year career with New England and will forever be remembered for his contribution to the Super Bowl LI comeback against Atlanta, his dependability and consistency. “James White has always been one of the most reliable and dependable players on…
Patriots: Heading into first preseason game, defense has plenty of confidence & might just be better than we thought
Yes, the offense has looked poor for the majority of training camp, but that’s because we may have severely underestimated this defense heading into training camp.

College: 10 Takeaways from Merrimack camp
With most of campus still quiet, the music and yelling coming from Duane Stadium on the campus of Merrimack Wednesday morning probably startled those few families walking around on tours or getting their freshman son or daughter adjusted to college life. The football team could be heard from the parking lot at 9:30 as another day of camp got started and the energy remained consistent for 2:40 of practice. The…
Patriots: Sights, sounds & thoughts from Day 11 of training camp
Baby steps. After a putrid practice for the offense on Monday, things looked a bit better on Tuesday. The team moved practice from 4 to noon in order to beat any thunderstorms, so the guys got the full dose of heat once again. This was a day where the staff seemed to want to slow things down a bit, coach more and ultimately get the running game going first and…
Patriots: Sights, sounds & thoughts from Day 10 of training camp
Yikes. That’s the only way to describe practice No. 10 on Monday afternoon. There’s been quite a bit of chatter about how poorly the offense has looked, but Monday may have been rock bottom. It was ugly, but let’s get into some sights, sounds and thoughts from the two-hour session… -While Terrance Mitchell wasn’t the first guy out for the in-stadium practice last Friday, he was again on Monday, which…
Patriots: Seymour’s induction into the Pro Football Hall of Fame important for preserving the dynasty’s rightful place in history
Photo: Georgia Bulldogs Richard Seymour officially went into the Pro Football Hall of Fame on Saturday afternoon and his induction was critically important for maintaining New England’s place in football history. You would think that the HOF will be littered with Patriots the next decade or so after winning six titles since 2001, but that’s probably not going to be the case. Ty Law and now Seymour will probably be…
