Sure, the unit made some huge stops – particularly inside the red zone and even in goal-to-go situations – but it also gave up…

September 19, 2021

Photo: USA Today After costing his team a chance to win against Miami in Week 1, Damien Harris needed to have a bounce back week. Not only did he have an important bounce back performance in a 25-6 win over the Jets, he provided Patriots fans with one of the most impressive runs they’ve seen since the days of clock killin’ Corey Dillon.

Photo: Elsa/Getty Images Mac Jones has his first of (hopefully) many NFL wins, but Sunday was all about the defense. The Patriots offense contuined to struggle in the red zone and it appears the coaching staff hasn’t quite taken the reins off of Jones yet, but the defense intercepted Jets rookie quarterback Zach Wilson four times and sacked him four times in a 25-6 win. Nick Folk also made four…

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…

No matter who the Patriots quarterback is this season, their job may be a lot easier. Not because of the wide receivers or tight ends they signed and not just because of their outstanding offensive line, but because this group of running backs may be one of the best in the NFL and it was on display Thursday night. Led by rookie Rhamondre Stevenson (127 yards, 2 TD’s, one for…
