Patriots: Wrapping up joint practices with the Giants and 2021 training camp
We’re on to the regular season. Well, sort of. The Patriots will have a light practice on Friday before officially finishing the preseason with one more game against the Giants on Sunday night in New Jersey. For all intents and purposes, Thursday was the final day of training camp since Friday will be an unpadded walkthrough. After Sunday, it’ll be all eyes on Miami with the season set to start…
Patriots: Did the Mac Jones Era begin on Wednesday?
If you were one of the thousands in attendance at the Patriots and Giants joint practice on what was a sweltering Wednesday morning, make sure you keep the posters they were handing out or anything else you may have taken home from the experience. It may have been a turning point kind of day for the direction of this franchise moving forward. The Pats and Giants had an old-school, tough,…
Patriots: Newton’s absence should end the QB competition, but it probably won’t
We got 397 words from coach Belichick on Tuesday morning, that’s it. That’s all the media got from Belichick prior to the morning practice as he was peppered with questions regarding Cam Newton and what his situation means for Mac Jones.

Now, that’s not to say that they’re completely doomed without him, but if the defense is going to be as elite as we all believe it can be, Gilmore is the final piece to the puzzle. The former Defensive Player of…
Patriots: Lombardi believes new additions to the receiver group are fitting in nicely
On Saturday afternoon, many of the Patriots assistant coaches met with the media while the team had a day off. It’s always good to hear from the guys on Bill Belichick’s staff because they’re always more inclined to be a little more honest when it comes to answering questions, although none of them will ever go full Mike Tomlin on us. One of those assistants that has quite a critical…
Patriots: Running backs continue to impress in second preseason game
For everyone like me who would rather watch a 38-35 game over a 24-21 game, we may be out of luck when watching the Patriots this season. I’m okay with it too if this is what it’s going to look like for the next six months or so. The Patriots offensive line and running backs were completely dominant on Thursday night in a 35-0 preseason win over Philadelphia. Now, in…
