Three Things to Watch This Week - Week 10

 The 5 - 4 New England Patriots play Baker Mayfield and the Cleveland Browns at Gillette Stadium on Sunday November 14th at 1:00 PM.

Hold on to that ball, Rhamondre Stevenson!


I have no complaints after last week. Solid road win. Feels good to be over .500 again.

Game ball to Jamie Collins. Jamie Collins' interception was insane. (Gah! Now he's on IR.)

Subtle nod to Brandon Bolden. I'm not the world's biggest Brandon Bolden fan, but I'll begrudgingly admit he's been relatively good the last few weeks. Hopefully we'll get some production from the running backs group back this week. It looks like Damien Harris is going to be out. I don't know who is still healthy.

Baker Power Rankings:

1) Joe Don

2) Street

3) Kenny

4) Danielle Pana-

5) Mayfield


Here are three guys on the offensive line I'll be watching this week:

1) Trent Brown - Welcome back, Trent Brown. If he can stay healthy, he's a game changer.

2) David Andrews - The offensive line hasn't been great this year, but Andrews has been solid in the middle.

3)  Isaiah Wynn - Right tackle Isaiah Wynn seems to grade out fairly high. He seems somewhat inconsistent to my untrained eye.


Did J.C. Jackson have an interception last week?

Two! Returning one of them for a touchdown.

His asking price keeps going up by the week.


Cookie of the Week


Toasted oatmeal coconut walnut chocolate chip cookies.

I thought these up while I was out for a run. I spend a lot of time thinking about food while I'm running.

Take 1.5 C oatmeal and roast it on a cookie sheet for 15 minutes at 350. Then let that cool and grind it in a food processor. From there it's a basic oatmeal cookie recipe. Add 1/2 cup of coconut, 1/2 cup walnuts.


Great British Jam of the Week

The Joy Formidable - Whirring 


Duncan's Pick of the Week.

With Nick Chubb out this week, Duncan likes the Patriots in their home gray uniforms 24 - 21.


How good does Pat feel about this team making the playoffs this year?

This week we have the absolutely jacked Fake Troy Brown reporting from deep within the World Headquarters of the Patriot Empire

Hello Citizens of Patriot Nation.

Not naming any names, BUT... This is what I'm hearing.

On the issue of questionable flatulence in Foxboro -  I assure you the suspicious farts heard during my media session last week were NOT live farts. I have the people on my staff doing the research, but we have reason to believe the Fart Machine was put there by a certain coach's son.

Next time we'll discuss the fact that, while the Earth may not be flat, Florida sure is.

Until then, stay vigilant. Get vaccinated. And clear your browser cache.

Three Things to Watch This Week - Week 1

The first place New England Patriots play the Oakland   Los Angeles   Oakland  Las Vegas Raiders at Gillette on Sunday September 7th at 1:00 PM. Patriot first round pick tackle Will Campbell. Douglas Power Rankings: 1) Adams 2) DeMario 3) Michael  4) The Lincoln–Douglas debates 5) Illeana  After back to back 4 - 13 seasons, you are allowed to feel a little skeptical about this team. What do we, as Patriots fans, have to look forward to in 2025? Returning:  Executive vice president of player personnel Eliot Wolf is somehow still here. Last year, the two wide receivers he drafted in 2024 combined for 13 catches. And one of them is no longer with the team. I'm against it. Coach Mike Vrabel. His career record as a coach is 56–48. This was seen as a significant upgrade over what we had in place. Offensive Coordinator Josh McDaniels. He's back! Again! Not returning: Coach Jerod Mayo. It was both a bad situation AND he didn't do a great job with it. That's ba...

2025 Three Things to Watch This Week - Week 2

The last place New England Patriots play the Miami Dolphins at Hard Rock Stadium on Sunday September 14th at 1:00 PM. They should have kept Jakobi. Joy Power Rankings 1) Anya Taylor 2) Formidable 3) of Cooking 4) Division 5) to the World I don't know what I was expecting for the first game under the new regime, but that wasn't it. Was there anything to feel good about last week? Here's what I've got off the top of my head. 1) Kayshon Boutte had a solid six catches for 103. That's nice! 2) Free agent signing Harold Landry had two and a half sacks in his Patriots debut. 3) Maybe we'll have a top five pick again next year. Also... lots of 1:00 PM games this season. Nice early bed times for everyone. Did the Patriots score 20 points? They did not! Days since the Patriots last score 30 points in a game: 1,063 days (I kid you not.) My prediction: Pats 9, Dolphins 37 *** Thursday Morning Third Down Back is pleased to welcome back special guest columnist Pinhead to shar...

Five Things to Watch This Week - Week 5

The Patriots play their fifth regular season game at Gillette against the Denver Broncos on Sunday October 7th at 4:25 PM. He's gonna get his name in the paper. Oh you know... Just two of the five best QBs of all time playing this weekend.  NBD. I'm no scout... but Peyton has no arm strength left.  Watch how many times he throws the ball more than 15 yards.  I think he's done . I'm huge on the Patriots this week.  Especially if we can keep running the ball like we have been. Sterling Power Rankings: 1) Archer 2) Roger 3) Hayden 4) Moore 5) Ice Cream Bar ... 11,957) John Here's five things I'll be watching for this week: 1) Stevan Ridley - 106 yards and two touch downs last week.  I enjoyed the BenJarvus Green-Ellis era in New England, but I can't remember too many runs he ever had of more than five yards.  Ridley is a little more explosive. 2) Brandon Bolden - 137 yards and a touch down last week.  Welcome to the par...
