Patriots: The Belichick coaching coaching tree loses a couple of branches with the firings of Flores and Judge

January 12, 2022

After the recent firings of Brian Flores and Joe Judge, the Belichick coaching tree currently has no branches in the NFL. There are no former Patriots assistants that are currently head coaches in the league. The Flores firing was surprising. After leading the Dolphins to back to back winning seasons and going 4-2 against the Patriots, you would have thought Flores had plenty of job security. Well, that wasn’t the…

Patriots: What to watch for in the final preseason game vs. the New York Giants

August 29, 2021

Only 60 minutes stand between the Patriots and the end of the preseason. Mercifully. Sunday night’s preseason game against the Giants (6:30 p.m., WBZ) is the final tuneup before beginning preparation for the Miami Dolphins in arguably one of the most anticipated seasons in recent history. Roster spots are still on the line, the quarterback situation is still a complete mind-bleep, the cornerback questions without Gilmore remain plentiful and what…

If you were one of the thousands in attendance at the Patriots and Giants joint practice on what was a sweltering Wednesday morning, make sure you keep the posters they were handing out or anything else you may have taken home from the experience. It may have been a turning point kind of day for the direction of this franchise moving forward. The Pats and Giants had an old-school, tough,…

Tampa Bay Tuesday: Brady and the Bucs survive a scare from the Giants

November 3, 2020

Vincent Carchietta-USA TODAY Sports Tom 6, Bill 2. It’s obviously not that simple, but as it stands after Monday night’s 25-23 win for the Buccaneers, Brady is winning the first round of the “was it the coach or quarterback?” argument that will last for decades. Brady technically needed a non-pass interference call to get to 6-2 on the year, but the Bucs are now second in the NFC, just behind…

The New York Giants surprised the football world on Wednesday when they announced the hiring of Patriots special teams and wide receivers coach Joe Judge as their new head football coach. Judge was an under the radar candidate who on the surface was just another candidate that was being interviewed as part of the part of the process. Judge impressed the Giants ownership group, most notably John Mara. When top…

Game Rewind: The Patriots overcame a slow start offensively and leaned on their defense to beat the New York Giants 35-14 in what was an ugly game. Here are five thoughts on the win. 1. Brady struggles early: Tom Brady has gotten off to slow starts in games this season and this game was no exception. Brady threw an early interception and he also fumbled the all. He eventually settled…

The Patriots return home to host a depleted New York Giants team on Thursday Night Football. The conditions at Foxboro are expected to be cold, wet windy and blustery. Not exactly an ideal night to throw the football. Here are five thoughts on the game. 1. Deal with the wind: The wind will be a factor in this game. It will impact the passing game and the kicking game. Look…

The Patriots wrap up the pre-season tonight at home against the Giants in the fourth and final pre-season game. Here five thoughts on the game. 1. Does Stidham start? One has to assume that Jarrett Stidham will start and play the majority of the game. The Patriots have a tough decision to make regarding the back up quarterback position. Stidham could lock up the job tonight. 2. Eyes on Edelman,…

Patriots: OBJ to the Patriots? I have a hard time believing they will pay the price to acquire him

February 21, 2019

The Patriots reportedly made an offer to the New York Giants last summer for wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr. I have a hard time believing that the Patriots would make the kind of offer it would take to land Beckham. That is not the way they operate as an organization. Sure, Bill Belichick traded for Brandin Cooks but as we saw, that didn’t work out. For all his faults, Beckham…

Patriots Pulse Blog: Call Me Crazy, But the Patriots Should Try to Sign Eugene Monroe

June 16, 2016

Eugene Monroe would add quality depth to a Patriots offensive line that sorely needs it. The Baltimore Ravens released veteran left tackle Eugene Monroe yesterday. Reports surfaced that the reason the team released Monroe was because of his views on legalizing marijuana. The Ravens also attempted to deal Monroe to the Giants but a deal fell through. I think all of that is a load of crap. They released Monroe…
