2021 Patriots Season:

“The play Jamie made,” Belichick said. “I don’t know how many players in the league could make that play. That was a tremendous play.”

The 2021/22 National Football League season was billed as the most important in living memory as American Football, and America as a nation begins the healing process following the catastrophic COVID-19 pandemic.

Former Jets quarterback Sam Darnold was picked off three times, one for a long touchdown, and was harassed and hurried all game long by the now-fantastic Patriot defense.

Stevenson, prior to getting hurt had an outstanding game, rushing 10 times for 62 yards and adding 44 more through the air on two catches. 

Belichick’s mantra has always been that it doesn’t matter where you were drafted, you’ll be judged on how well you do with the opportunities

The Patriots have to attack north-south and as soon a catch is made, the receivers have to turn up the field and take what is there.

Here are some observations coming off of the Patriots vs Chargers game on Sunday as New England evened their record to 4-4 on the season.

Why wasn’t Jerry Tillery flagged for hitting Mac Jones late on Sunday against the Chargers?

Some thoughts following Sunday’s Patriots vs Chargers win out in Los Angeles

The Patriots took their opening possession down the field for a TD.  McDaniels job of scripting the first 15 or so plays has been outstanding

Nick Folk was perfect on field goals all afternoon, and his 30-yarder with 3:16 left gave the Patriots a winning cushion. The Patriots wound up holding on for a 27-24 win over the Chargers at SoFi Stadium in Inglewood, Calif.

but they got Larry a bucket, surrounded him with some guys and he took care of his business, right there on the sideline.

The Patriots coming off the manhandling of the lowly Jets face a quality opponent in the Los Angeles Chargers. 

While these new faces certainly provided Patriots fans with plenty to be excited about, there was one new player that has garnered more attention than the rest – new quarterback and 15th overall pick in the 2021 NFL Draft, Mac Jones.

Jets players were upset by the Patriots running up the score on Sunday.
