More from his final preseason thoughts: https://www.patriots.com/news/after-further-review-37-thoughts-on-the-patriots-after-training-camp-and-the-preseason Notable Goods: 1) "RB Rhamondre Stevenson looks poised for a huge season as an all-around back." 2) "TE Hunter Henry signed a contract extension in the middle of camp and was his steady self this summer as an underneath outlet for Maye." 3)…
I went a game at Gillette in the mid-2000s, and while walking across one of the lots to the stadium, I just happened upon the bronze marker where the snow kick was launched from (I feel like it would've been the 45 yarder to tie it, not the game winner, but I can't quite recall). Well they removed that marker when Patriot Place was built on that lot, and apparently haven't re-marked it in the…

Their knowledge seemed to end at the QBs. Identifying players by jersey number and leaving half-hearted attempts at players’ names unfinished is a joke. Mispronunciation of…
Before everyone gets all angsty like they did last year -- I'm clearly not an expert, except my exceptional excellence at projecting potential personnel for the Patriots. Let's do this again (I nailed it last year despite everything, even calling the Swinson cut before commentors made me doubt the extent of my own sagacity). Here's last year's thread:…
I want to preface this by saying, I don't want to overreact about anything. I'm not freaking out or trying to be a doomer. I've just been thinking about the entirety of the past offseason and preseason, and it's littered with drama and weird choices. Am I the only one who finds the Pats decision making and conduct super weird over the last six months? I mean it feels like ever since the SB, the…
I think this draft class is built much more for the future than the present. I could see everyone say at the end of the year, this class was a bust, but two years from now saying it was a solid class. For the sake of length I’m just gonna dive into the first 3 draft picks. Lomu : was going to need to sit regardless unless he was just light out. Look we’re not gonna roll a 36 year-old right tackle…
We have all seen the concerns,ive voiced them before, but who impressed this offseason. I thought Williams looked good albeit against 2nd and 3rd string . Riordan looked like he could be a contributor at this level .Dametrious Crownover progressed during camp and looks like he can move people ,with his size and TE background i wouldn't be surprised if he gets chances as 6th OLine man in Jumbo…
From Mark Daniels' post-game article: https://www.masslive.com/patriots/2026/08/winners-and-losers-from-patriots-preseason-finale-vs-browns.html Doug Kyed added: "The thought of Jacas being the top backup at OLB to start the season is a bit scary." & "Jacas continues to play out of control on the edge." Mike Reiss gave him the legendary Reiss "⬇️" emoji And the eye test is really, really bad on…
