The Patriots visit Houston today to take on the Texans. It is another reunion game for them as old friends Nick Caserio and Danny Amendola are now employed by the Texans. Houston of course is without Deshaun Watson who is inactive due to off season legal troubles. Rookie Davis Millis has been the starter and he has struggled. After an opening week win against Jacksonville, the Texans have lost three…
Yes. Yes it can. In years past, this “get right” scenario for the Patriots would have been an absolute layup. We would all be fully confident in Bill Belichick’s ability to mess with a rookie quarterback and Tom Brady would shred this lackluster Houston defense and all would be right with the world come Monday morning. Those days simply don’t exist anymore and Sunday’s meeting with the lowly Texans is…
The Patriots offensive line is banged up with as many as four starters possibly being out today. So, how will the Patriots get their back lineman acclimated to playing today? Well it’s simple. They need to do these four things offensively to make their back lineman comfortable and engaged in the game. 1. Run the football: Seems simple but the best way to get an offensive line engaged early is…

This is a big opportunity for the Patriots to get right, but there is a lot going on during game week…
The Patriots have traded cornerback Stephon Gilmore to the Carolina Panthers for a 2023 Sixth Round pick. News broke this morning that the Patriots were going to release Gilmore today. The team shopped Gilmore prior to releasing him and they found a willing trade partner in Carolina. The Panthers needed a corner after they lost rookie cornerback Jaycee Horn two weeks ago for the season. By adding the former defensive…
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….
