Patriots put together a complementary game and run roughshod over the Panthers. www.bostonsportsjournal.com/2025/09/28/g...

TreVeyon Henderson handled that drive and caps it with a 5-yard td run. Good power to move bodies and cross over the GL. 1st career TD. 21-6, Patriots. I smell a 40-burger.

After that 33-yarder to Stefon Diggs, the Pats now have generated four explosive plays and we're only midway thru the 2nd Q.

Woodson was the free defender there and nearly gets the pick on 3rd and 16. Colliding with Carlton Davis probably cost him the INT. Davos stayed down after the play.

That was a beautiful drive. Pats hit em every which way, capped by Drake's 5-yard TD run. 3 plays of 20+ yards (Hooper TE screen, Gibson jet sweep, Stevenson off fake jet sweep).

This somehow became an 87 yard punt return for a score.

Marcus Jones wakes everyone up. 88 yard punt return for a score. He broke one tackle, and then on the reversal, he had a wagon full of blockers and did that thing with ease. Charles Woods was injured on the return by friendly fire. He's walking off however.

A smattering of boos when Rhamondre Stevenson is announced as the starter.

Patriots inactives: Jared Wilson, Caedan Wallace, Efton Chism, Elijan Ponder, Eric Gregory and Tommy DeVito (3rd QB). That means Christian Gonzalez is active for the first time this season.

Good day for it.

In his playing time (he's at 48% of the offensive snaps), Diggs has proven to be reliable, catching 13 of his 15 targets, and the case is being made that his snaps should increase. www.bostonsportsjournal.com/2025/09/25/g...

"We felt like he probably needed a little bit more time, and hopefully he’ll be ready to go. Excited to see him and everybody else practice today.” Is this the week for Gonzalez to return? www.bostonsportsjournal.com/2025/09/24/g...

Zak Kuhr will lead the Patriots defense again this week, filling in for Terrell Williams. Will that be the case after week 4? www.bostonsportsjournal.com/2025/09/22/g...

If the Patriots want to be a serious football team, hell, a competent one, what happened today in a 21-14 loss to the Steelers won't fly. www.bostonsportsjournal.com/2025/09/21/g...

Ja'whaun Bentley, who signed to the Steelers practice squad, there to dap Peppers up.

Harold Landry comes screaming off the right side and hurries/hits Rodgers on 3rd down. Ball off target. Punt team on.

Jabril Peppers forced and recovers the fumble by Antonio Gibson. Good lawd. I need some tequila.

12 plays, 90 yards, and over 6 minutes consumed on that TD drive by the Steelers. Penalties not helping. Tackling still an issue as well (see 3rd down conversion by Warren in which both Williams and Elliss missed). 14-0, Steelers.

Drake Maye does not appear to be seeing it very well so far. Combine that with the pressure, and you have a rough start for the offense.

TreVeyon Henderon was beaten by Patrick Queen on the incomplete pass where Queen got a piece of Maye's arm. Had all kinds of problems in pass pro last weekend at Miami.

Tonga destroyed that second-and-goal run, but the DPI on Alex Austin was legit. Steelers take advantage of that penalty, and the Stevenson fumble, to take a 7-0 lead.

Justin Wilson has the seventh. Terrific first start for Harrison: 6 IP, 4 H, 1 R, 1 ER, 2 BB, 5 K. 86 pitches, 60 strikes, 11 swing/miss

"For a guy as young as he is...you almost forget that based on your everyday conversations with him, how well he can maneuver different environments." On Maye's maturity, plus much more in this weekend's Notebook. www.bostonsportsjournal.com/2025/09/20/g...

“Man, just trust the process. You know, a lot of things go a certain way for a reason. And man, I’m definitely confident. I come in happy every day, believe in this team, and the staff that we have. “I’m in high spirits, and I’m in a good state of mind.”

Not only did the Patriots have perfect attendance, but Christian Gonzalez stepped up his participation level from the day prior. www.bostonsportsjournal.com/2025/09/18/g...

Mike Vrabel promised Christian Gonzalez would "do some stuff at practice" today. Technically, that was true... www.bostonsportsjournal.com/2025/09/17/g...

Do it again, but do it better. That's the challenge for the Patriots as they turn the page from Sunday's thrilling but sloppy win in Miami and get ready for Aaron Rodgers and the Steelers this weekend. www.bostonsportsjournal.com/2025/09/16/g...

The Patriots' two best runs came off of wham and power schemes (Gibson for 15 and Stevenson for 21). Meanwhile, wide zone was largely ineffective.

For a guy who has worked very hard to clean up the overall operation in Foxborough, this should bother him. Actually, we know it does, but perhaps not as much as initially assumed. www.bostonsportsjournal.com/2025/09/15/g...

Pats won yesterday despite missing 12 tackles. That's their highest miss-tackle rate since week 4 in 2021 (per Next Gen Stats).
