Week 18: New York Jets 17, New England Patriots 3 (4-13) (Sunday, January 7, 2024)

What a season! Awful, hilarious, a rollercoaster.

Last Thursday Coach Bill Belichick was let go as the HC of the NEP after 24 years. I would have pitched a fit if the team had showed any upswing, but 4-13 pretty much says it.

Linebackers coach Jerod Mayo (former Pats player) was named the new HC. He;s on a roll now! We'll see if we can cut the mustard (the food-based jokes were flying fast). ;)

The Bills beat the Dolphins to take the division, and the Jets beat the Pats.

Week 17: Buffalo Bills 27, New England Patriots 21 (4-12) (Sunday, December 31, 2023)

The first half was a mixed bag. The Patriots scored first but tuened the ball over 4 times. Still, they were only down 10-14 at the half.

They tried in the second half but just didn't have enough horses.

Pats, Dolphins and Jets lose and Bills win.

Next week the Jets at home to wrap up the season.

Week 15: Kansas City Chiefs 27, New England Patriots 17 (3-11) (Sunday, December 14, 2023)

A tale of two halves: just like last week, QB Bailey Zappe was good in the first half, not so much in he second half. The defense was stout but ya gotta score points, O!

Miami and Buffalo won, New England and New York lost.

Next, the Patriots travel to Denver to play on Christmas Eve.

Week 14: New England Patriots 21, Pittsburgh Steelers 18 (3-10) (Thursday, December 7, 2023)

Shocking! The Patriots WON! And they SCORED TOUCHDOWNS! SCORED FIRST! What madness is this? :)

Back-up QB Bailey Zappe managed to score TDs and not throw a pick. The second half was tougher but the Pats held on to win. Does this portend more wins? Let's not get crazy! We'll see how it goes, but that first half was fun!

Week 13: Los Angeles Chargers 6, New England Patriots 0 (2-10) (Sunday, December 3, 2023)

Same ol', same ol'. The Pats started the back-up QB but couldn't score on a pathetic Cgargers team. *rolls eyes*

Oh, goody, a short week! Patriots at Steelers this Thursday.

AFC EAST New York Giants 10, New England Patriots 7 (2-9) (Sunday, November 26, 2023)

Mac threw an INT, fumbled and was benched. Bailey Zappe comes in, provides a spark that ties the game, but they still lose. Playing for a high draft pick now.

Miami wins, Jets and Pats lose, Buffalo playing later today. EDIT: Buffalo lost.

Next week the Chargers come to town.

So, the Patriots are in Germany. Fresh surroundings? Huh, same ol' Pats.

Opportunities, but Mac was at his worst today, throwing INTs willy-nilly. *sighs* Anyway, the German fans had fun, considering the stinkeroo teams they got stuck with.

Early game, so we'll see how the rest of the division goes.

Bye week next week. At least they won't lose! :)

New England and Miami lose, Buffalo plays tonight and Buffalo tomorrow night.

Next week the Patriots travel to Germany to meet the Colts.

Patriots had some oomph but ultimately blew it.

This team is Lucy and we fans are Charlie Brown trying to kick the football. Hope, then they yank it away!

Buffalo, Miami and New York win and New England loses.

Pats actually played like a football team, even scoring some TDs! They dominated the game, nearly blew it in the final minutes, and pulled it out. Amazing! Gillette's rockin'!

The Patriots won, the Jets are on their bye, Miami plays tonight, and the Bills lose. EDIT: Miami lost.

Next week, down to Miami!

Week 5: New Orleans Saints 34. New England Patriots 0 (1-4) (Sunday, October 8, 2023)

STINK, STANK, STUNK!!!!!!!

After last week's worst loss in Bill Belichick's career as a Head Coach, we witnessed his second worse loss, this time at home! It was awful in all three phases of the game. QB Mac Jones threw yet another Pick-6, the defense couldn't stop anybody and special teams were atrocious. Awful, awful, and MORE awful! Crickets at Gillette.

Where do they go from here? Who knows? They have no playmakers, injuries have piled up, and coaching looks clueless. Bill keeps building a team like Brady's still here, Tom's greatness spackling the cracks in the foundation and elevating JAGs to serviceable-to-good. Can the 71-year-old Belichick relate to today's players who can't be yelled at? Who are social media darlings? Can a chalkboard coach relate to tablet players?

Can this be fixed at all?

The Dolphins and Jets won, the Pats and Bills lost. Next week they travel to Las Vegas to meet the Raiders. Primetime games coming up. Bet the networks bump 'em.

Week 4: Dallas Cowboys 38, New England Patriots 3 (1-3) (Sunday, October 1, 2023)

The Patriots were sneaky. They fooled us into thinking they were in this game as they were tied 3-3 with the Cowboys, but then--DISASTER STRUCK!!! INTs, pick-6s, fumbles, stupidity...you name it, the Patriots suffered it. They were bamboozled by a trick play. They lost key players to injury. BB pulled Mac Jones in the 3rd quarter because the kid just didn't have it. Back-up Bailey Zappe was no better. This was Bill Belichick's worst loss in his football career. Yeesh!

Where to go from here? Heaven knows!

The Pats, Jets and Dolphins lost, and the Bills won.

Tim Wakefield, who was my favorite player on the World Series-winning Boston Red Sox teams, passed away from cancer. He was an extremely successful knuckleball pitcher, which is a rarity with that screwy pitch. It was especialy impressive playing Fenway Park, a little bandbox! He was popular with his teammates and the fans.

He was an even better human being, working within rhe community and having many friends. A sad loss.

The New England sports community also lost Russ Francis, who played tight end for the Patriots in the '70s and '80s. He was very talented and also known as a nice guy, also popular with his teammates and fans.

Heaven is having a run on good guys. 🥺

Week 3: New England Patriots 15, New York Jets 10 (1-2) (Sunday, September 24, 2023)

Another mixed bag. It looks like I'll be saying that every week! :) Anyway, the Patriots did hold the Jets to 10 and the defense also got a safety (2 points) but it took until the last second to defeat this sorry team! So that's concerning, but a win was vital so we'll take it. :)

Miami and Buffalo won in addition to the Pats and the Jets lost. Miami hung a 70-burger on Deenver! Over 700 yards of offense! Wowza!

The Patriots head for Dallas rhis Sunday.

Week 2: Miami Dolphins 24, New England Patriots 17 (0-2) (Sunday, September 17, 2023)

Another mixed bag. The defense this week wasn't as sharp, and the offense was the same old inconsistent. They dug themselves a hole yet again and expended most of their energy on catching up and didn't have enough to actually win.

They play the Jets next, and if they can't beat a Jets team without Aaron Rodgers even if it is on the road, they're in trouble. Sure, it's only Week 3, but football isn't like the other sports. You don't have a lot of games, and if you dig a deep enough hole...

The Dolphins and Bills won, and the Patriots and Jets lost.

Week 1: Philadelphia Eagles 25, New England Patriots 20 (0-1) (Sunday, September 10, 2023)

Very mixed bag of a day. The game started out horribly for the Pats' D (shades of last year, *shudder*) but they finally stopped majig stupid mistakes and pulling penalties to get within striking distance of victory. Sadly, not to be. The defense was good, special teams not bad, offense mixed. They've got to win games like this. Time for moral victories is over.

The highlight of the day was the ceremony honoring Tom Brady at halftime. The crowd loved to see him running out on the fiels in his Pats jersey once again. Short speeches were made (owner Bob Kraft, then Tom). Tom was very appreciative and thrilled the crowd by saying he was a Patriot for life! :D Kraft said the 4-year waiting for the Patriots Hall Of Fame would be waived and Tom would be inducted next June(not Pro HOF, so he still has to wait 5 years for eligibility there). Tom also rang the bell of the new lighthouse before the game. A very nice day.

Miami won, New England lost, and Buffalo and New York play tonight. EDIT: Jets beat the Bills in OT but lost their famous QB during the first series before he ever completed his first pass as a Jet. Jets gonna Jet!

Next week Pats host the Dolphins.

Well, the Patriots didn't roll over and die, but special teams gave up two TDs, and the Pats just couldn't pull out the win. No playoffs this year, folks!

The Pats started out strong in the first quarter, but fizzled out by halftime. In the seond half, a defensive touchdown gave us hope. More defensive heroics, then the offense finally woke up.

Whew, a win! Gillette was jumpin'! And still in the playoff hunt. o.O

Pats win, Dolphins lose. The Jets play the 4:05 game and the Bills play tomorrow night.
