At 1:00 PM ET today, the 4-2 New England Patriots will take on the 0-6 Tampa Bay Buccaneers at Wembley Stadium in London, England.
On paper, the Bucs, who are behind first year head coach Raheem Morris, really don't stand much of a chance against the Pats today. The Patriots are ...

Today, the Patriots released another three players: linebacker Eric Alexander, tight end Michael Matthews, and wide receiver Joey Galloway. Yesterday, Tully Banta-Cain was released.
The release of Eric Alexander is, like Banta-Cain, a head scratcher. He is one of the Patriots...

According to several reports, the Patriots have released outside linebacker/defensive end Tully Banta-Cain.
Not really sure about the logic in this move. Banta-Cain was playing really well for the Pats. In six games, he had three sacks, and had been one of the teams best overall...

I woke up this morning, and I had no idea how to even begin talking about this game. When you have a historic blowout like this, there really isn't much to say. The Titans came out today (rather, they didn't really come out), and had nothing to offer the Patriots. ...

Today, the 3-2 New England Patriots host the 0-5 Tennessee Titans in a game that will be seen as must-win for both teams. The Patriots haven't lost back-to-back games since 2006, and are coming off of an overtime loss to the Denver Broncos. Meanwhile, the Titans have yet to win ...

Pass Offense: C+
While the Patriots had a good first half showing, with Brady starting 14/19 and two touchdowns, the passing offense couldn't do much of anything in the second half (sans a Moss 36 yard reception that was supplemented with a missed Stephen Gostkowski field goal...
Week 5 Snapshot: A Tale Of Two Halves (Again)

I'm truly convinced that this New England Patriots team is bi-polar. Rather, the offense is bi-polar. One half of great football, one half of terrible football. After second half melt-downs against the Jets and the Ravens (a game they held on to), the Patriots again couldn...

This afternoon, the New England Patriots will host their first NFC opponent of the year as they face off at 1 PM against the 2-0 Atlanta Falcons.
Offensively, the Patriots will look to overcome their abysmal 9-point showing in week 2 against the Jets. However, in the passing game...

For all who were hoping for my thoughts on the game yesterday, I had a lot of work to do so I just opened a discussion thread on the game. Now, after re-watching the game, I feel I have a better grasp at what happened.

Rumor: Patriots Looking at Derrick Brooks

With linebacker Jerod Mayo sidelined indefinitely, the Patriots certainly need to add some depth at the linebacker position.
The Patriots opened Monday's game in the 3-4, but after Mayo went down, switched almost exclusively to the 4-3. If the Patriots were to switch exclusively...

It's hard to believe that although the Patriots opened up their season just six days ago, that the Super Bowl is already upon us. Well, according to nose tackle Kris Jenkins at least, who said earlier this week that the Jets were treating today's game like their Super Bowl...

Mum is the word on Patriots' linebacker Jerod Mayo's condition this morning. The closest thing to an update comes from Ian Rapoport of the Boston Herald:
As loud as Gillette Stadium got with 50 seconds to go, it got just as quiet midway through the first quarter. Thatâ€...

The Patriots Monday night game ended over an hour ago, and I am still at a loss for words.

Via Michael Lombardi of the National Football Post:
I’m told reliably that Richard Seymour isn’t looking for a long-term contract from the Raiders, that in fact his absence centers solely on his unhappiness with the trade. The comments from coach Tom Cable are really irrelevant...

“That could be the No. 1 pick in the 2011. The Raiders are a bad team and they will be a bad team next year. This will, at least, be a top-five pick. They could have gotten the best defensive lineman in that draft and he would be 22 years ...

The Patriots apparently no longer have one of the best defensive lines in the league. I woke up this Sunday morning, and to my absolute shock, learned that Richard Seymour was on his way out the door, having been traded to the Oakland Raiders.
