The New England Patriots leaned on Bailey Zappe for the second straight week and he had a strong first half against a good Pittsburgh Steelers defense, which was enough to come out with a win. The defense looked solid, as it has all year, but the road doesn't get easier with the Kansas City Chiefs coming to town. Can the Patriots pull off the upset? Alec and Rich cover it all. -- Score early this NFL season with FanDuel, America’s Number One Sportsbook!

Well. We're here. This is the lowest the Patriots franchise has been in 30 years. The Patriots lost to the Chargers 6-0 and it was a completely forgettable game. Their best player on offense, Rhamondre Stevenson, suffered an injury that could end his season. The rest of the offense looked terrible. But, hey, the defense looked great! The Patriots-Steelers game on Thursday Night has an over/under of 30, which is the lowest since 1993. It's gonna get weird.

Pat and Matt break down what was just a terribly boring game at rainy Gillette on Sunday. They discuss Zappe's performance, the problems with the offense, and how the defense has been solid, even though they can't win.

Pat and Matt discuss Bailey Zappe getting the nod over Mac Jones this week. It was clearly the right decision, based on how Mac has played, but can we expect the team to look any different with Zappe? After a quick Chargers preview, they go over some submitted mock drafts, and discuss how realistic they are, and whether or not they like them. It's almost the offseason, when we can fully get into draft season, but, while the Patriots tank the season away, it's fun to get some mocks in!

The New England Patriots season has turned surreal as they became the first NFL team in 30 years to lose two straight games while also holding the opposing team to 10 or fewer points- the first since the 1993 Patriots. There's no way the laughable offense can perform any worse, so why not change it up next week against the Chargers? Alec and Rich cover it all. Learn more about your ad choices.

Pat and Matt discuss the terrible football game the Patriots played in New Jersey on Sunday. The Patriots certainly appear to be one of the worst teams in the league, and have no good answer at QB right now. The loss did, however, keep the tank alive, as the Patriots are in the driver's seat for the #2 overall pick in next April's draft.

The Patriots are testing the limits of rock bottom and will have their weakest challenge of the year as they come out of their bye and face a Giants team that is equally terrible.

Pat is joined by Keagan Stiefel of NESN to discuss who should start at QB for the Patriots moving forward, and if any one of the quarterbacks they have are any good. It looks like the Patriots aren't going to have much of a chance to win games moving forward, but should they try to start the quarterback that gives them the best chance to win, or simply embrace the tank? All that, plus a quick look at the draft, and then they finish with a few prop bets, trivia, and a few moments from this week in sports history.

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 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.

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 Sunday, it was great to see the Patriots play as well as they used to.

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 week 7? Alec and Rich cover it all.

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.

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 potent Saints passing attack? Alec and Rich cover it all. Learn more about your ad choices.

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 and Rich cover it all. Learn more about your ad choices.
