Thoughts on episodes 7 & 8 of ‘The Dynasty’

March 8, 2024

We’re down to the final four episodes of this somewhat controversial ‘The Dynasty’ documentary on Apple TV. Personally, I haven’t found this to be as bad as a lot of other people. I think some of the B-roll and behind the scenes stuff has been well worth the watch. Have stories been embellished to make Bill Belichick look slightly worse? Sure.

Patriots release JC Jackson

March 1, 2024

The (second) JC Jackson era in New England has ended. The team officially announced that they cut the troubled cornerback on Friday, saving $14 million in salary cap space. The move isn’t a surprising one given the fact that the team is in rebuild mode and New England now has just about $100 million to “burn” in free agency, along with the No. 3 pick.

Thoughts from episodes 3 & 4 of ‘The Dynasty’

February 23, 2024

Image courtesy of Apple TV+ Alright, the first two episodes of The Dynasty didn’t disappoint with a nostalgic look back at the early days of this magical 25 year run, and even some 90’s love for those of us who grew up with Bledsoe being ‘the guy.’ The next two episodes were a bit puzzling, but still entertaining as hell.
