The Patriots take on a Tennessee Titans team that just fired their head coach earlier in the week and will be without their best receive, Calvin Ridley. On paper, the Patriots are the better team and they should take care of business. Executing early and winning one on one match ups will once again be the key. Here are five match-ups to watch in today’s game. Harold Landry and K’Lavon…

The Patriots announced on Thursday that they have signed TE Thomas Odukoya (pronounced – OH-due-COY-ah) and DL…
FOXBOROUGH – Being a rookie in the NFL is hard enough. Being a rookie in the NFL trying to make an impact on special teams with minimal opportunities in a game is even harder. That’s where having a coordinator like Jeremy Springer comes into play. Now in his second season, Springer has been a huge help for guys like Andy Borregales, Efton Chism III, TreVeyon Henderson and others. Springer’s willingness…
FOXBOROUGH – Sunday’s Week 7 matchup between the Patriots and the Tennessee Titans features a ripe storyline ripe: Revenge! Patriots Head Coach Mike Vrabel returns to Tennessee for the first time since his unceremonious dismissal from the Titans organization two years ago. However, if Vrabel and players are feeling the pull of a “revenge game” narrative, they are doing an effective job of ignoring it. Both the coach and his…
For the first time since the 2021 season, and after a five-year AFC East division title drought, the New England Patriots are back where they spent two decades: sitting atop the AFC East standings. Following a hard fought Week 6 win against the Saints and an unexpected loss by the Buffalo Bills in Atlanta, the Patriots (4-2) have climbed to first place in the division. While they share the same…

For over two decades, the famous ‘How do we feel about a victory? Awww yeahhh!’ chant started by Tedy Bruschi, continued by Matt Slater and then delegated among a few different guys last year (albeit only four times)…
Getty Images FOXBOROUGH – Mike Vrabel easily could have lost his mind on several occasions during Sunday’s win over the Saints. Not because of anything his team did, but because the Patriots were seemingly playing against both New Orleans and an incompetent officiating crew. The Patriots had 113 yards of offense and a touchdown taken off the board due to outrageous offensive pass interference calls. Multiple plays that really shouldn’t…
AP Photo/Gerald Herbert The Patriots made it three wins in a row after beating the New Orleans Saints 25-19 in a back and forth game that made Patriots fans sweat. Drake Maye was once again fantastic, especially in the first half. The second half could have been better. The lack of a running game is a problem and don’t get me started on the officiating. It was brutal. Here are…

Mike Vrabel’s Patriots are still learning how to win consistently and took another big step forward on Sunday with a 25-19 victory in the Bayou. “It’s better than an old team getting out of here with a loss, I would say,” Vrabel said when asked specifically about the importance of finding a way to win on the…
Odds: Patriots -3.5, O/U: 46.5 Kickoff: The Patriots will look to make it three in a row today when they visit New Orleans to take on a Saints team that won their first game last week. The Saints are young and have a good blend of veterans and rookies but they are clearly rebuilding. Despite that, this is the ultimate trap game for the Patriots coming off of the win…
