Monday night we caught a glimpse of what life would look like without Cam Newton and it wasn’t pretty. All off season we foolishly believed that the Patriots could compete with either Brian Hoyer or Jarrett Stidham as their starting quarterback. That notion has been put to bed. We trusted in Bill and the system. As good as Bill and the system are however, you cannot overcoming bad quarterback play….
Charlie Riedel/Associated Press This was setting up to potentially be one of the greatest regular season wins in franchise history. October 5, 2020 was going to be a night Patriots fans remembered in the same class as the comeback against Denver on that frigid night in Foxborough or, Drew Bledsoe’s win over Minnesota. The incredible story was unfolding before all of our eyes. New England’s starting quarterback was diagnosed with…
When watching film on the Chiefs, the first thing that pops out at you is their speed. Not just on offense. On the entire team. Kansas City is built to play fast and we saw it first hand against a Ravens team that is built to be physical. They looked slow in all three phases of the game last Monday night. It seemed as if only Marquise Brown and Devin…
Line: Chiefs -11 Opening Kickoff: The Patriots travel to Kansas City to battle the Chiefs tonight in a game that was rescheduled after it was revealed on Saturday that starting quarterback Cam Newton tested positive for COVID-19. The Chiefs also had a positive test of their own as back quarterback Jordan Ta’amu tested positive as well. Subsequent tests on both teams and personnel were negative. The two teams are going…

It wasn’t pretty at times on Sunday afternoon, but the Patriots beat the Las Vegas Raiders 36-20 at Gillette Stadium to move to 2-1 on the season. With David Andrews out the offensive line struggled to protect Cam Newton early, but, thanks to 117 yards from Sony Michel and three total touchdowns…

The Patriots will host the undefeated Las Vegas Raiders at Gillette Stadium this afternoon. Las Vegas has opened the season by winning shootouts against the Panthers and Saints. For the first time since his return to the sideline, Gruden has assembled the type of roster he wants in order to play the way he wants. This is especially true on offense. Gruden calls the offense but has an experienced staff…
Image courtesy of the New England Patriots/WEEI After another instant classic with the Seattle Seahawks on Sunday night, Bill Belichick was back meeting with Glenn Ordway, Lou Merloni and Christian Fauria Monday afternoon. As always, it’s one of the more valuable pieces of radio in this area each week that sometimes doesn’t get the credit it deserves. This week was a tough one for the entire Patriots organization as Bill…
AP Photo/Elaine Thompson SEATTLE – Dating back to the infamous “you mad bro?” in 2012, the Patriots and Seahawks have played some all-time classics. The Malcolm Butler pick, the non-pass interference call at Gillette back in 2016, and now another game can be added to the list. Cam Newton (397 yards) and Russell Wilson (288 yards, 5 TD’s) had a duel for the ages that saw the Patriots fell 35-30…
