The New England Patriots overcame another huge scare in Week 6, beating the division rival New York Jets by a narrow score of 24-17. One could even argue that the Jets might’ve stolen a win had it not been for a controversial call on a scoring play by New York late in Sunday’s game. On […]

The New England Patriots’ 19-14 win over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers on Thursday was a bit more meaningful for Tom Brady than his close to 200 other regular season wins.

In preseason predictions and power-rankings, the New England Patriots were constantly placed at the top, and rightfully so.

One team that many thought would be able […]

The debate prior to the NFL season was that whether the New England Patriots could go undefeated in the 2017 campaign.
