3-Point Stance: Why the Patriots will be better in the red zone in 2026
The New England Patriots struggled to capitalize on red zone opportunities in 2025.

Patriots-Eagles joint practice was a complete success. I liked that both teams are strong and good foils for the other.

Christian Barmore was one of the most disruptive interior defensive linemen in the NFL last season, but you wouldn’t know it looking at his sack count. In a combined 21 regular season and playoff games, he had only three quarterback takedowns despite also registering 55 other pressures. Entering into 2026, the goal is therefore clear: […]

New England Patriots head coach Mike Vrabel is not afraid of being hard on rookie Gabe Jacas. In last Thursday’s preseason opener, that led to Vrabel calling out Jacas on the sidelines and challenging the rookie to compete harder on special teams.
