Image courtesy of AP FOXBOROUGH – The Patriots were five yards from giving their fans a Christmas or post-Festivus miracle no one would forget. Then, it went away as quickly as The Feats of Strength. New England eventually cut it to four with 18 straight points, but a Rhamondre Stevenson fumble inside the five in the final minute ended any hopes of a memorable holiday miracle as the Pats lost…

NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport reported this morning that Alabama offensive coordinator and former Patriots offensive coordinator Bill O’Brien has emerged as a potential candidate to return to New England next season.

Patriots: Stupid loss a microcosm of a bad season

AP Photo/John Locher The Patriots gaff to end yesterday’s game against the Raiders is a microcosm of their season. It has been an annoying season filled with ups and downs and yesterday loss is just another example of just how far this franchise has fallen. The Patriots used to be the standard when it came to being disciplined and playing situational football. Not anymore. Now they take dumb penalties, can’t…

Patriots: Raiders stun Pats with bizarre finish

Image courtesy of Getty Images The Miracle in Sin City has quickly replaced the Miracle in Miami. Either way, it’s not good for the Patriots. A 30-24 loss to the Las Vegas Raiders on Sunday can only be described as unbelievable. With the game tied at 24-24 and 32 seconds on the clock after Vegas had just driven the length of the field for a controversial game-tying touchdown pass from Derek…

Image courtesy of USA Today Sports Images As dysfunctional as things have seemed at times this year for the Patriots, it could be much, much worse. After Miami lost to Buffalo and Baltimore lost to Cleveland on Saturday night, the Patriots now have a path to the No. 5 seed and a possible date with the Titans in the first round of the playoffs. Sounds a lot better than a…

Patriots: Offense gets it done despite missing top four offensive players

December 13, 2022
0 comment

It wasn’t pretty but the Patriots beat the Arizona Cardinals 27-13 in a must win. The defense led the way with six sacks, a turnover and a defensive score but the offense did its part as well despite being down its top four offensive players. With the Patriots skill group depleted due to injury, back ups needed to step up and they did. Rookie running backs Kevin Harris and Pierre…

Image courtesy of Norm Hall/Getty Images Sport At this point, the Patriots will take victories however they can get them. The defense led the way and the offense showed some growth (at times) in a 27-13 win over an Arizona team that lost star QB Kyler Murray three plays into the game on Monday Night Football. At 7-6 and a week out in Arizona on the horizon before heading to…

Patriots: Offensive ineptitude continues; Bills beat Pats again

  FOXBOROUGH – It’s official. The Buffalo Bills own the New England Patriots. For 20+ years, fans could easily dismiss any threat from the lowly, laughing stock franchise, but not anymore. Thursday night’s primetime matchup wasn’t as ugly as the playoff game a year ago, but it wasn’t much better as New England fell 24-10 to its division rivals. The offense showed zero ability to move the ball again and…

Patriots: Offense shows up, but defense, special teams & mental miscues hurt Pats in Thanksgiving loss

November 25, 2022

Image courtesy of ESPN Playing on Thanksgiving for the first time in a decade, the Patriots showed some surprising offensive firepower on Thursday night. Unfortunately, the two units that have carried the offense so far this season had arguably the worst game of the year in a 33-26 loss to the Vikings. This was a brutal loss for New England, there’s no need to sugarcoat it. Now at 6-5 and…

Patriots: Patriots Offense Needs to Throw More Short Passes

November 21, 2022
0 comment

The Patriots mustered only three offensive points in Sunday’s 10-3 win over the Jets, their worst output of the season. They were able to move the ball well at times, but could not make enough plays (or play calls) once they got inside the Jets 30-yard line. The offensive line struggled mightily and the typically strong Patriots running game was largely ineffective, save for a couple nice runs from Damien…
