Image courtesy of Patriots.com When Matt Judon signed with the Patriots prior to the 2021 season, he was signed to be a disruptive force. For much of last year, he was just that, but faded towards the second half of the season. Well, it appears Judon is right back to his old ways after dominating the Lions on Sunday afternoon and the NFL recognized it on Tuesday. Judon was named…

One of the most entertaining stories in recent New England memory has been the play of Bailey Zappe the past two weeks. The third-string rookie came into the Patriots game at Lambeau Field after Brian Hoyer’s injury and almost led them to a win against the Packers. He followed that up by winning his first start against Detroit on Sunday. It has been fun, but before you call in sick…

The Detroit Lions have the NFL’s number one offense and much of that is a byproduct of one of the league’s top rushing attacks.

Patriots: Keeping it simple in the passing game is the key to victory today

Keep it simple stupid is an old coaching adage that I think applies to the Patriots when it comes to how they approach today’s game against the Lions offensively. Particularly the passing game. Rookie Bailey Zappe is going to be making his first career and if I were coordinating the Patriots offense, I would build off of what we did last week. I would keep it simple and I would…

The Patriots brought back Jamie Collins this week, the linebacker’s fourth stint with the team. He won Super Bowls in 2014 and 2018 with the Patriots and brought a high degree of athleticism to the group. His signing now, however, is not about a return to the glory days of an elite Patriots linebacking corps that featured Collins, Dont’a Hightower and Kyle Van Noy. It is about a group that…
