This is a big opportunity for the Patriots to get right, but there is a lot going on during game week…
The Patriots released all-pro cornerback Stephon Gilmore this morning in a move that surprised a lot of people. Gilmore was scheduled to come off the PUP list after Week 6. The former NFL Defensive Player of the Year was scheduled to earn $7 million this season with a possible cap hit of $16.25 million. According to Adam Schefter, the Patriots were $54,000 under the salary cap. They plan on re-signing…
AP Photo/Elise Amendola The Patriots learned a valuable lesson in their 19-17 loss to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. The margin of error is razor thin when it comes to close games in football. Contrary to what the narrative will be. The Patriots did not lose last night because Tom Brady picked apart Belichick’s defense. They lost because they committed eight penalties for 77 yards and turned the ball over twice….
It was truly a night Patriots fans and the Brady family will never forget. After so much hype – it felt like a Super Bowl the last two weeks – Tom Brady’s triumphant return to Foxborough on Sunday night had it all. You had the near perfect moment of him running out for pregame to a thunderous ovation. You then had the Bucs being introduced to another standing ovation and…
PHOTO: AP Photo/Elise Amendola I think we can all agree the Patriots have their quarterback of the future. Many fans were still on the fence about the first round draft pick, but Jones should have put any questions you may have had about his ability to lead to bed on Sunday night after going toe-to-toe with Tom Brady in the most hyped regular season game in North American sports history….
Buccaneers tight end Rob Gronkowski will not be making a return to Gillette Stadium tonight with Tom Brady. The former Patriots tight end is out with a rib injury and did not make the trip. Some Patriots fans think Gronkowski is ducking them and the organization because of the way his career ended in New England. The truth is, it has nothing to do with that. Gronkowski is legitimately hurt….

Brady’s return to Foxborough and Belichick’s battle against his former QB is the biggest NFL storyline we’ve had in a very long time. Fans will be ready and who knows what kind of tribute or welcome Brady will get, but you have to…
Enjoy this one tonight Patriots fans, it’ll be a while until you see this type of atmosphere again. Primetime, Sunday night, all eyes on Gillette Stadium. It’s something fans got used to seeing four or five times a year when Tom Brady was the quarterback and 14-2 was almost a given before training camp even started. Those days are long gone now and when Brady packs up and leaves after…
In case you’ve forgotten, Mac Jones is also playing on Sunday night. Unfortunately, Tom Brady won’t be throwing passes for both teams. Basically a forgotten man in all of the Brady-Belichick hysteria this week, Jones is about to face his biggest challenge yet with the eyes of the world watching. Literally, The Today Show and NBC Nightly News are broadcasting from Gillette Stadium on Friday. The world is truly fixing…
For years we have been told that the key to getting to Tom Brady is inside pressure. It is all about throwing him off of his spot. That theory will be tested this week when Brady and the Buccaneers visit Foxboro. Other teams have taken that approach to dealing with Brady in the past but it hasn’t exactly worked. Teams that have running quarterbacks can usually beat inside pressure by…
