Former NFL head coach Rex Ryan did not hold back when he eviscerated Bill Belichick and the New England Patriots amid the AFC East team’s tumultuous 2023 campaign. For Ryan, the Pats’ dynasty was always more about legendary Tom Brady and less about Belichick, an opinion he bluntly expressed recently. “This team plays like they’re […]

The New England Patriots season continues to trend downward with the latest slide coming at the hands of the New York Giants. The Patriots lost 10-7 on Sunday, losing back-to-back games in which they allowed only 10 points. The Patriots offense has not done much of anything this season so New England has to take […]

The New England Patriots quarterback situation looked even bleaker in their loss to the New York Giants as Mac Jones was benched again and Bailey Zappe failed to impress, possibly leaving the door open for Bill Belichick to make a move. Speaking to reporters Monday, the Patriots coach didn’t say that an outside move to […]

The New England Patriots took another step towards cementing their status as the worst team in the NFL for the 2023 season in Week 12 when they lost a battle of mediocrity with the New York Giants by a score of 10-7. After losing 10-6 to the Indianapolis Colts back in Week 10 prior to […]

Bailey Zappe relieved a struggling Mac Jones for the fourth time this season in the New England Patriots’ loss to the New York Giants, leading to further questions about the team’s quarterback situation. Zappe has a clear message for Bill Belichick on the situation. Speaking to reporters following Sunday’s 10-7 loss, Zappe indicated that he’d […]

The New England Patriots were so close to redeeming themselves against the New York Giants. Bill Belichick’s schematics got them within striking distance and just a single field goal away from heading into extra time. Pressure does tend to come on the shoulders of a kicker in these situations and Chad Ryland was no exception. […]

Rob Gronkowski didn’t enjoy watching his former team, the New England Patriots, in Week 12 on Sunday as they battled the New York Giants. That much is clear from Gronk’s commentary during the game. During his appearance as an analyst for FOX Sports’ broadcast of the Patriots-Giants showdown, Gronkowski didn’t hold back his frustrations on […]

Slipping down to a nine-win record is not the worst thing that happened to the New England Patriots this week. It may have hurt that they lost to the New York Giants in such a close fashion but the hit to Demario Douglas was far worse. The game was nearing its conclusion in the fourth […]

Bill Belichick’s hot seat with the New England Patriots might have grown even hotter following their loss to the New York Giants on Sunday, but David Andrews has his pick.

Head coach Bill Belichick tried to pinpoint the issues his team is dealing with after another dreadful performance from the New England Patriots on offense, specifically from Belichick’s options at quarterback. After Mac Jones and Bailey Zappe both got a crack at sparking the offense in a 10-7 loss to the New York Giants, Belichick […]

The New England Patriots had another disaster of a game after losing 10-7 to the New York Giants. Mac Jones was noticeably benched again. However, it sounds like this is part of Bill Belichick’s master plan. During the postgame press conference, the Patriots head coach claimed that he thought both Jones and Zappe deserved playing […]

After watching Mac Jones throw two interceptions, New England Patriots head coach Bill Belichick decided to give Bailey Zappe an opportunity. As Zappe was about to enter the game, Jones proved that there were no hard feelings between the two. It’s never easy for a starting quarterback to lose their job. But before Zappe entered […]

The New England Patriots cannot wake up from their fever dream of a season. After two weeks of preparation and what amounted to pointless speculation about who would be their starting quarterback in their Week 12 matchup against the New York Giants, it was once again bumbling third-year starter Mac Jones who meekly took the […]

It’s been a bumpy season for the New York Giants, however, rookie quarterback Tommy DeVito is at least bringing some excitement to the team. His family is all over the place and they’re taking over MetLife Stadium. Tommy DeVito mania is officially here. His family was seen tailgating and got some TV time before kickoff, […]

The New England Patriots opted to stick with Mac Jones as their Week 12 starter against the New York Giants, despite his horrific performance in Week 10 against the Indianapolis Colts. It didn’t take long for that decision to backfire, as Jones turned in an ugly half of football that quickly resulted in him getting […]

Get off Tom Brady’s lawn. The New England Patriots legend and broadly considered greatest quarterback in NFL history made headlines earlier this week by insisting he’s seeing “mediocrity” and a lack of “excellence” across the league, pointing to poor coaching, stagnating development of young players and new rules meant to promote player health that curb […]

All throughout the week, New England Patriots fans, and even the team’s own players, have wondered who would be starting at quarterback in Week 12 against the New York Giants. We still technically don’t know who is going to line up under center on the first play of the game, but it seems like Mac […]

It looks like the New England Patriots have made a decision with regards to their starting quarterback for Week 12 against the New York Giants. Mac Jones started for the team in Week 11 against the Indianapolis Colts, but the 25-year-old quarterback was benched in favor of Bailey Zappe late in the contest following an […]

This weekend, the Steelers travel to Cincinnati for a must-win game if Mike Tomlin’s squad wants to remain in contention in the AFC North. Elsewhere across the league, the Giants host the Patriots in a matchup of two teams in transition periods and the Bills take on the Eagles. Keep reading for my best NFL […]

The New England Patriots made a move at the quarterback position on Friday. But unfortunately, the pressing question of who will start for the team in their Sunday matchup against the New York Giants remains unanswered. Incumbent Mac Jones and backup Bailey Zappe are the two remaining candidates after the Patriots released third-string quarterback Will […]

The New England Patriots are fresh off their bye week and probably have their most winnable game left this season when they take on the New York Giants in Week 12. Even though the Patriots are favored to win Sunday’s game, there are still several questions surrounding them in a matchup that I’m calling “The […]

It is about that time to check out our NFL odds series where our Patriots-Giants prediction and pick will be made. The Patriots ended up with the last […]

What’s going on with the New England Patriots? Once upon a time, the Patriots were considered the benchmark of greatness in the NFL. However, this season has been nothing short of a disaster. The biggest concern fans have right now is their QB situation. Who even is starting for the Pats at QB? Will it […]

True to form, New England Patriots head coach Bill Belichick is staying mum on the team’s discipline of cornerback J.C. Jackson this season. While the veteran player opened up last week about why he was left home during the team’s Week 10 trip to Germany to face the Indianapolis Colts, the Patriots’ notoriously guarded coach […]

What’s at stake in this New York Giants Week 12 showdown against the New England Patriots leaves a lot to be desired, especially considering the history between these two clubs. Two Super Bowls in the last 15 or so years, along with a lot of familiarity between the coaching staffs. Of course, Bill Belichick, a […]

The New England Patriots 2023 season has not gone very well, to say the least. At 2-8 through 11 weeks, the Pats have the worst record in the AFC and could soon be officially eliminated from playoff contention. New England’s offense has been the stem of most of its problems and a change at quarterback […]

When Trent Brown didn’t fly with the New England Patriots to Germany for their Week 10 tilt against the Indianapolis Colts, some were alarmed because the offensive tackle was listed as out due to personal reasons in addition to an injury. But in an interview with MassLive’s Mark Daniels, Brown clarified that he was going […]

New England Patriots offensive tackle Trent Brown is not appreciative of reports suggesting that he’s late to team activities. In fact, Brown used an expletive to explain his frustration over them. The veteran left tackle shot down a recent report from the Monday Morning Quarterback’s Albert Breer, telling MassLive’s Mark Daniels the contention that he’s  […]

It’s been a rocky year for the New England Patriots to say the least. The team which once couldn’t lose and was an annual participant in the AFC Conference Championship Game a few short years ago has fallen off. The six-time Super Bowl champions sit at just 2-8 after a brutal 10-6 loss to the […]

Beleaguered quarterback Mac Jones appears inexplicably poised to reassume the New England Patriots’ starting quarterback role despite being pulled in the deciding minutes of the team’s Week 10 loss to the Indianapolis Colts. Jones took the first QB reps during the media portion of today’s Patriots practice, according to Mark Daniels of MassLive. In addition, […]

When it comes to New England Patriots defensive player J.C. Jackson, it’s been a tumultuous past couple of weeks. He’s been benched in the game against the Washington Commanders and has been seen in the injury report as out due to “personal reasons.” While that designation is always broad and can mean anything, Jackson himself […]

Whether it’s Carson Wentz joining up with the Los Angeles Rams, or Joe Flacco hitching on with the Cleveland Browns, there’s often a place for experienced quarterbacks in the NFL no matter what their mileage is.  Veteran QB and 2015 NFL MVP Cam Newton is eager to play quarterback in the league again. Unfortunately, NFL […]

New England Patriots head coach Bill Belichick is still not revealing his team’s starter under center in the Week 12 matchup against the New York Giants on the road. In fact, Belichick just told Adam Schefter of ESPN that he has every quarterback on the roster expecting to be ready to play. Asked this morning […]

It is hard to imagine the New England Patriots not being coached by Bill Belichick, but rumors have already started making their rounds about a looming breakup between the legendary coach and one of the most successful franchises in NFL history. Belichick won six Super Bowls in a 17 -year span with the Patriots alongside quarterback Tom Brady. Brady […]

The New England Patriots are a huge mess. After a brutal Week 11 loss to the Indianapolis Colts, the team headed into their bye week with plenty of questions.

Jack Jones’ time with the New England Patriots ended on a sour note, being released by the team on Monday before being claimed by the Las Vegas Raiders on Tuesday. But the former Patriots cornerback seems to be happy with what transpired over the last few days. Speaking to reporters for the first time since […]

It’s been a blunder of a season for the New England Patriots as calls for Mac Jones’ benching grow ever louder with each passing day. Bill Belichick and the coaching staff finally pulled him late in the last game, so it’s unclear what Jones’ future holds in New England. Despite that, teammate Jahani Tavai is […]

The New England Patriots are in the middle of one of the most disappointing seasons in their storied history, and while there haven’t been many bright spots this season, one of them was surely the reemergence of Kendrick Bourne at wide receiver. Of course, that didn’t last very long, as Bourne tore his ACL in […]

The New England Patriots sport the second-worst record in the NFL at 2-8. Only the New York Giants have a worse point differential. The playoffs aren’t happening. So what’s franchise legend Rob Gronkowski’s message to the team? Don’t give up! “You can’t tank right now. It’s too early in the season still,” Gronkowski told Up […]
