The New York Giants may have to get their house in order before a Week 13 matchup against the New England Patriots.
As the Patriots earned their ninth straight win on Sunday, the Giants suffered their sixth straight loss. For the fifth time this season, Big Blue blew a late double-digit lead on the road.
One of their star players spoke for many disgruntled Giants fans when bashing the team’s decision-making. Wide receiver Malik Nabers, who’s out for the season with a torn ACL, eviscerated his organization in a since-deleted tweet on Sunday.
“Sometimes I think they (are) makin us...

New England Patriots cornerback Carlton Davis III played his best game of the season on Sunday against the Cincinnati Bengals — but there were some slight hiccups along the way.
Davis, who finished the afternoon with the lowest completion percentage allowed by anyone on the field, was called for defensive pass interference on wide receiver Tee Higgins late in the fourth quarter — extending a drive that resulted in a touchdown from Joe Flacco to Mitchell Tinsley.
Davis wasn’t exactly thrilled about the way things unfolded…
“That (expletive) was BS because he’s a bigger receiver, first and foremost, and he’s...

The Mike Vrabel-led New England Patriots pushed their record to 10-2 in Week 12 with a 26-20 victory over the Cincinnati Bengals on Sunday afternoon. Once again, it was Drake Maye leading the way on the field, and as his star profile continues to grow, the more attention he receives.
In the blink of an eye, Maye has become one of the NFL’s most popular players. Not only is he dominating on the field, where he’s thrown for 3,130 yards and 21 touchdowns so far this year, but his humble personality off the field seems to have resonated with fans....

The Patriots secured another victory, defeating the Cincinnati Bengals 26-20 on Sunday. While New England celebrated the win, quarterback Drake Maye didn’t quite shine in his performance.
Maye passed for 294 yards, tossing one touchdown but also throwing an interception that turned into a pick-six.
While securing victories remains New England’s top priority, Maye still focuses on racking up impressive stats in pursuit of the NFL MVP. However, he now trails far behind Los Angeles Rams quarterback Matthew Stafford in MVP odds.
After throwing for 273 yards and three touchdowns in the Rams’ impressive 34-7 victory over the Tampa Bay...

Happy least productive week of the year, everyone!
Thanks for spending some of the time you’re killing at the office today and tomorrow with me as I break down the 10th Patriots win of the year. I’ve always found that braving the holiday traffic and Black Friday deals is a lot easier when it comes on the heels of a Patriots win, so I’m glad to be kicking off the holiday season the right way.
Pats Pulpit
The New England Patriots’ depth will be tested following injuries to rookie offensive linemen Jared Wilson and Will Campbell.
Wilson (ankle) and Campbell (knee) were both carted to the locker room amid the club’s victory over the Cincinnati Bengals on Sunday, with the former missing nearly the entire game and ultimately being replaced by Ben Brown, while the latter was absent for the majority of the second half and replaced by Vederian Lowe.
Patriots head coach Mike Vrabel provided some positive updates on Monday — with both rookies seemingly avoiding worst-case scenario.
“He won’t be out there this week. It’s...

Patriots head coach Mike Vrabel confirmed left tackle Will Campbell will not practice this week and could be out a “couple weeks.” Campbell, who reportedly suffered a MCL sprain, could potentially be placed on injured reserve, which would cause him to miss a minimum of four games.
Vrabel, however, did not go as far when asked about starting left guard Jared Wilson. Wilson, like Campbell, exited New England’s win over the Cincinnati Bengals on Sunday with an injury.
“Probably too soon to tell,” Vrabel told reporters at Gillette Stadium on Monday, per the team. “See how the week of practice...

Another former New England Patriots player celebrated the franchise’s resurgence on Sunday.
Rob Gronkowski labeled New England the AFC’s best team before their Week 12 win over the Cincinnati Bengals. An ex-teammate on a competing network praised the Patriots after their ninth straight victory.
Logan Ryan, who won two Super Bowls with the organization in 2014 and 2016, rejoiced over New England’s revival on CBS Sports.
“We had a hard four years, but the Patriots are back,” Ryan said.
Ryan lauded Drake Maye as an MVP candidate. The second-year quarterback leads the NFL with 3,130 passing yards despite still seeking...

The New England Patriots are rolling, as they picked up win No. 10 on the season in Week 12 over the Cincinnati Bengals. Much of the success is due to first-year head coach Mike Vrabel, and one of his former teammates, Matt Light, believes he knows what has helped change the culture at 1 Patriot Place.
After taking over for Jerod Mayo as the Pats’ new head coach, Vrabel made it clear that one of his goals was to establish a winning culture in New England again. There’s still a lot of football left to play this season, but it...

The Patriots apparently dodged a major bullet on Sunday.
During New England’s road win over the Cincinnati Bengals, rookie tackle Will Campbell suffered a knee injury that, at the time, appeared serious. However, head coach Mike Vrabel on Monday revealed that Campbell could return relatively soon.
“He won’t be out there this week,” Vrabel told reporters. “It’s going to be a couple weeks. We’ll have to make a decision here on the roster to see how long that will be, and go from there. But it’s nothing that’s going to, hopefully, put him out for the entire season.”
Vrabel’s update...

The Patriots apparently will be without multiple starting offensive linemen for multiple weeks.
NFL Media’s Ian Rapoport reported Monday left guard Jared Wilson suffered a high-ankle sprain in New England’s victory against the Cincinnati Bengals. Wilson is considered week-to-week.
Rapoport acknowledged that while most high-ankle sprains typically come with a timeline of 4-6 weeks, there is hope that Wilson’s recovery will be “on the shorter side.”
The Patriots have five games (six weeks) remaining in the regular season.
The update on Wilson comes after Rapoport reported Patriots left tackle Will Campbell suffered a MCL sprain against the Bengals. Campbell is...

The Las Vegas Raiders fired senior offensive assistant Bob Bicknell on Monday.
Las Vegas suffered a disappointing 24-10 home loss to the Cleveland Browns. It was another lackluster offensive performance, and now the team let Bicknell go after also firing offensive coordinator Chip Kelly, according to NFL Network’s Tom Pelissero.
“The Raiders fired senior offensive assistant Bob Bicknell, per source,” Pelissero wrote on X on Monday. “He was Chip Kelly’s right-hand man. Now, both gone.”
Bicknell served as the Patriots’ tight ends coach in 2024 under Mayo, lasting just one season in New England as the team let him go...
