Something a bit strange happened in New England last year. The Boston area sports team with the highest win percentage wasn’t the New England Patriots (58%). Nor was it the Red Sox (57%). It isn’t even the Celtics (50%) or Bruins (59%) in the middle of their current seasons. If you haven’t figured out where I’m headed with this yet, …
New England (3-4) did what they had to last Sunday but it won’t mean anything if they lose to the Chargers this weekend. Now they have a chance to build on a win and start a winning streak. The Pats essentially saved their season in their past couple wins. Now their next win is what can really create some excitement …
Patriots continue to find ways to lose close games to good teams having bad nights. Up four with the ball in a two-minute drill ending the first half and getting the ball first in the second half, and you lose. You have the ball with a little over two minutes left in the game with the lead, and you lose. …
Last years loss in Houston pretty much ended the season. Could this year’s win be an early revival of the season? Even considering that they didn’t really look that impressive. The Patriots have played 5 games so far this regular season. This past Sunday was the second game (first being week 3 vs. New Orleans) where this team came out …
Mac threw 3 picks and got leveled all day. James White was carted off. Defensive stars like Van Noy and Hightower were non-factors. And Jameis threw all over your secondary. An all-around forgettable day. Where do I begin? How about with the fact that despite the final score, the Patriots were actually close and could’ve still won this game despite …
The Patriots bounced back this weekend to beat the Jets on the road, 25-6, for their 11th straight win over the division rival from New York. The last time the Jets beat New England was in December 2015 in an overtime finish. Even though the defense had a phenomenal game on paper (allowing only 6 points and creating 4 INTs), …
The New England Revolution played to a 1-1 draw on Saturday night against the Columbus Crew. The statistics paint a rather rosy picture for the Revs attack, which saw 61% possession. New England out-shot their opponents 33-6, had a 14-2 advantage in corner kicks and a nearly 2 goal lead in expected goals. If not for some poor finishing and …
Cam’s Out. Mac’s Up. At 10:05 this morning Jim McBride of the Boston Globe broke that Cam Newton had been released. 5 minutes later Adam Schefter tweeted that Mac Jones will be the new starting quarterback of the New England Patriots and set off the story of the day for sports media outlets all over. According to an undisclosed source …
