Blame Game: Another Primetime Catastrophe

Blame Game: Another Primetime Catastrophe

A disastrous game from the Dolphins questions the outlook on the future.

In all my years of watching the Miami Dolphins, one thing always holds true. They don’t lose often, but when they do, they self-destruct. It felt like Deja vu with the catastrophe on Thursday Night Football against the Buffalo Bills.

There’s so much blame to go around, and it has ramifications that stretch to a place nobody knows, not even the players or coaches on the team.

A mix of bad luck, miscommunication, horrible decisions, and injuries plagued the Dolphins Thursday night and resulted in an outcome that...

The Jets try to avoid the dreaded 0-2 start this week when they go on the road to take on the Tennessee Titans

The New York Jets go on the road to face the Tennessee Titans in Nashville, Tennessee today. Kickoff is scheduled for 1 pm EDT.

The Jets were thoroughly outclassed last week to open the season. The San Francisco 49ers dominated in the trenches on both sides of the ball en route to a blowout 32 - 19 49ers victory that was not as close as the score might indicate. Of particular concern was the Jets run defense,...

Patriots game day roster: Vederian Lowe’s return to the starting lineup, waiver pickup debuts, and more

A look at the Patriots’ game day roster for their Week 2 game against the Seahawks.

The New England Patriots return home for their Week 2 contest against the Seattle Seahawks, and they are doing so in decent shape. With the exception of one player, their starting lineups on both sides of the ball will remain unchanged compared to last Sunday’s win in Cincinnati.

Their game day roster for Sunday’s contest therefore looks as follows:

Patriots game day roster

Quarterback (2): Jacoby Brissett (7), Drake Maye (10)

Patriots-Seahawks Inactives: Javon Baker Makes NFL Debut

The New England Patriots and Seattle Seahawks have released their inactive players for today’s game in Foxboro. There is a lot of good news for New England. The four players listed as questionable for the game are all active. Offensive guard Sidy Sow was previously ruled out, though he is the lone inactive due to injury.

RB JaMycal Hasty, OG Layden Robinson, DE Deatrich Wise Jr., and S Kyle Dugger were all 50-50 for the game based on their questionable designation. All four are active for New England. Joining Sow on the inactive list are QB Joe Milton III, WR...

Patriots Rookie Climbs Up Depth Chart Before Seahawks Matchup

Patriots Rookie Climbs Up Depth Chart Before Seahawks Matchup

Javon Baker will make his NFL debut on Sunday at Gillette Stadium.

The Patriots are rolling with a new receiving corps in Week 2, with Baker being listed as active for their matchup with the Seattle Seahawks. Baker will take over for Kayshon Boutte, who was listed as inactive after playing zero snaps in a season-opening road win over the Cincinnati Bengals.

Baker's activation is an interesting one, as it would seem to indicate his designation last week had more to do with off-the-field questions than his performance on the field.

Patriots head coach Jerod Mayo was asked about Baker...

Patriots vs. Seahawks inactives: Javon Baker replaces Kayshon Boutte on game day roster

The Patriots ruled out five players for their Week 2 contest.

The New England Patriots’ home opener will see a change at wide receiver.

Kayshon Boutte, who was active in Week 1 but did not play any snaps, was deactivated for Sunday’s contest against the Seattle Seahawks. In his place, rookie Javon Baker will serve as the fifth wide receiver on the Patriots’ game day roster.

Baker arrived in New England as a fourth-round selection in this year’s draft. While undeniably talented a potential future starter along the perimeter, he struggled with consistency throughout training camp and later was disciplined...

Patriots-Seahawks Inactives: New England Benefits From Key Absences

FOXBORO, Mass. -- New England Patriots head coach Jerod Mayo labeled Seattle Seahawks running back Kenneth Walker III as a player who jumped off the film.

Fortunately for Mayo and the Patriots, they won't have to face Seattle's hard-running back in their Week 2 game at Gillette Stadium on Sunday afternoon. Walker was ruled out with an oblique injury.

Seattle also will be without starting right tackle George Fant, who is one of three offensive tackles inactive. The Patriots will be without at least one starter, as well.

New England on Saturday ruled out left guard Sidy Sow and placed...

Patriots Better Off With Chukwuma Okorafor Away From Team

Patriots Better Off With Chukwuma Okorafor Away From Team

The Patriots were dealt a surprising blow Saturday.

New England placed former starting left tackle Chukwuma Okorafor on the exempt/left squad list just one day before its home opener against the Seattle Seahawks. Why? Okorafor is reconsidering whether he still wants to play football, according to Karen Guregian of MassLive.

You don't want that guy at left tackle, do you?

Okorafor was already a question mark, being benched for poor play in the season-opening win over the Cincinnati Bengals. The Patriots made the decision that Vederian Lowe -- who missed the majority of the previous two weeks' worth of practice...

History, Common Players, and Fun Facts for Patriots-Seahawks

The New England Patriots (1-0) host the Seattle Seahawks (1-0) on Sunday in Foxboro, Mass. Since Seattle began play as a franchise in 1976, the two teams have shared a history that includes a Super Bowl matchup, common players, a common head coach, and a trade that landed the Seahawks a Hall of Famer. For teams that have only met once in the postseason and play on opposite coasts, their history is fairly rich.

In 1993, New England (No. 1) and Seattle (No.2) held the top picks in the NFL Draft. The Patriots selected Drew Bledsoe from Washington State. Notre...
