We saw an instant classic and one of the weirdest games in modern NFL history when the Patriots beat the Bills on Monday night in week 13. This week brings another challenge and another tough as…
Photo: Carmen Mandato/Getty Images Hunter Henry might just be one of those perfect Patriots. The free agent tight end had high expectations heaped upon him by the fans coming into this season and rightfully so after New England jumped at the chance to sign him and Jonnu Smith very early on this spring. For the first few weeks once getting healthy his performance was underwhelming. Then, Henry suddenly became Mac…
Saturday night could very well need to be the Rhamondre Stevenson and Brandon Bolden show if the Patriots are going to remain the top seed in the AFC. The Colts have talked all week about how they want to put the ball in Mac Jones’ hands by taking away the run. It was announced Friday that Damien Harris’ hamstring injury will prevent him from playing, which could make Indy’s job…
Common sense and compassion are two things that have seemingly fallen off the face of the earth in the last couple years. So, when Robert Kraft, program director Sherman Patterson and New Bedford Police Chief Paul Oliveira briefly gathered at the 50-yard line on Thursday afternoon to announce the “Lights On!” initiative, it was a small step towards trying to bring both of those things back to the area. “Lights…
Okay, so none of us thought the Patriots would be in this position back in August, right? Sure, once Mac beat out Cam for the starting job and it was clear he was going to be the guy moving forward, a lot of people believed he’d have what it takes to help lead this team to something better than the 7-9 finish a year ago. But, no one could have…
In a matchup for first place in the AFC East on Monday night, the Patriots traveled back in time to defeat the Bills 14-10. The game was controlled by the weather, with consistent winds at 25-30 mph and gusts over 45 mph throughout the game. As a result, New England only called three passing plays the entire game, gaining just 19 yards through the air. The Patriots ran the ball…
Photo: Al Bello/Getty Images After putting up some impressive numbers and scoring totals during a six-game win streak, all the talk surrounding the huge Monday night matchup in Buffalo was about Mac Jones and whether or not he could handle the elements and pressure of his first Monday night game. So naturally, Bill Belichick decided the best option with 45-50 MPH wind gusts was to run the ball 46 times,…
The Bills and Patriots renew their long standing rivalry tonight in Buffalo. It is the first of two meetings in the next three weeks between the two teams. The Patriots lead the all time series 76-55-1. They have a 37-23- 1 record in Buffalo. The Bills are looking to win their second straight AFC East title but in order to do so, they will need to win these two head…
The storylines heading into the massive Patriots and Bills matchup on Monday Night Football are seemingly endless, but there’s really only one thing fans in New England want to know at the end of the night. Can Mac Jones handle the NFL’s biggest stage in a difficult environment? 352 days ago, December 19, 2020, Jones and Alabama put up 52 points against Florida in the SEC title game. Now, almost…

This is a battle not only for 1st place in the AFC East, but for the number 1…
