Mac Jones was benched after one of the worst throws you'll ever see, as the Patriots waste a solid performance by the defense and lose 10-6. The Patriots have a bye week coming up after this game, and it looks like there are going to be a lot of changes coming when the Patriots take the field again after their bye. Make s...

Pat and Matt are back discussing the holes that the Patriots need to fill, and how they can possibly right the ship overseas. Is it possible for the Patriots to salvage what has become an awful season, or are they just simply a bad team? They also discuss the rumors about Bill Belichick possibly getting fired if the Patriots lose in Germany, as well as the arguments that have surrounded Mac Jones...

Pat and Matt discuss the Patriots preparation heading into the Dolphins game, and whether or not they will be able to keep the good vibes going and win in Miami. They look at the offense against the Dolphins defense, and, more importantly, the defense against the high-powered Dolphins offense. They also finish the episode with a college football game to watch, their prop bets, another trivia quest...

The Patriots earned a strong victory over the Bills in a way that could change the trajectory of this team. The offense looked good in a, "they could do this against other teams!" way, the defense did a great job against an elite offense, and Mac Jones engineering the best drive of his career with a game-winning touchdown throw. Can the Patriots build from here, or was this a fluke? Alec and Rich...

Pat and Matt break down a huge win for the Patriots against the Bills. Not only did they control the game for most of the game, but they also came back at the end of the 4th quarter to seal the win. It was the first signature win of Mac Jones's career, and one of the best games the Patriots have played since Tom Brady left. Who knows if it will be a sign of things to come, but, at least for one Su...

Pat and Matt discuss what the Patriots need to do to get back to being competitive in the near future. Who on the roster are guys they should keep, and who do they need to get rid of? The Belichick question is one that must be answered, of course, but they take a long look at the roster and decide who the players they need to keep for the future. They finish with a college football game to watch t...

The Patriots have a claim to being the worst team in the NFL. After getting demolished in back-to-back weeks, the team was barely competitive against a bad Las Vegas Raiders squad, leading to the ultimate question: should the Patriots tank? Do they even have anyone on the roster that other teams would give up draft picks to obtain? Is there any hope at ALL for the team against the Buffalo Bills in...

Pat and Matt discuss the Patriots loss in Las Vegas against the Raiders. The Patriots showed some fight in the second half after a tough first half, but it ultimately wasn't enough for them to come away with the win. It wasn't great, but the fact that they showed some fight, and actually moved the ball a bit was at least a step in the right direction. Snap into action this NFL season with FanDuel,...

The New England Patriots haven't been able to do anything right over the past two weeks. It's one thing to struggle against a good Cowboys team. It's another to be shutout at home against a below-average Saints team. The Patriots are in crisis mode. Where do they go from here? Alec and Rich cover it all. Learn more about your ad choices.

They discuss these questions and more in this reaction podcast. Subscrib...

They also talk about how this game could be a turning point for the Bill Belichick regime in New England. Hopefully, the Patriots will show some life and fight against the Saints, but, if they don't, what does that say about the Patriots moving forward? All that and more in this n...

It was a terrible outing by the New England Patriots as they were absolutely demolished by the Dallas Cowboys in week 4, and to add insult to injury they lost their two best defenders for the rest of the season with injuries. Can Mac Jones and the offense turn the page in week 5 against the New Orleans Saints? Can the defense overcome yet another series of injuries to the secondary to defend the p...

Pat and Matt break down what was a terrible game for the Patriots in Dallas. Mac Jones was benched, the rest of the offense struggled, and the defense ended up surrendering a bunch of points as well. To add insult to injury both Matthew Judon and Christian Gonzalez left with what might be serious injuries that will sideline them for a bit. An all around terrible performance, and the guys break it...

Pat and Matt are back, and they are discussing the important Patriots topics of the week, like: Is Taylor Swift a good artist? They also discuss the controversy surrounding Mac Jones, and why it is being blown way out of proportion. They discuss Jerome Bettis lying through his teeth on Ben Roethlisberger's podcast, and do eventually talk about the huge matchup against the Cowboys this week. They f...

The New England Patriots recorded their first win of the 2023 season in a 15-10 muddy affair against the New York Jets. While the offensive line looked great at times, Mac Jones and the offense struggled to close out drives, while the defense looked otherworldly. Can the Patriots build off this success against the Cowboys? Alec and Rich cover it all. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megapho...

Pat breaks down the Patriots week 3 victory against the Jets. The offense wasn't up to par today, but the defense stepped up and shut down the Jets almost all game. It got a little tight at the end, and theres a lot to clean up, but it's always good to win against the Jets. Make sure to subscribe to get instant reactions to all of the breaking Patriots news.

Pat and Matt start the episode with some film review from the Sunday night loss to Miami, and get into a full preview of the game this upcoming weekend against the Jets. Will the offensive line finally be whole, and how will they hold up against a very good Jets front? Will the Patriots be able to take advantage of Zach Wilson? They answer these questions and many more. They also finish with some...

It's not that the Patriots lost- no one would have been surprised by an 0-2 start- but it's how New England showed up against the Miami Dolphins that is concerning. Why did the offense, that showed some spark against the Eagles, fade back to 2021 and 2022 levels of ineptitude? Will the Jets and their elite defense force the Patriots offense to step up, or will week 3 hold more of the same? Alec an...
