Death. Taxes. Chief criticizing Marshall Newhouse. Some things change. And some things always stay the same. Let’s get started with this week’s “State of the New England Patriots.”
State of the Game
This was a tale of two halves on offense. I said last week that I did not want to read too much into the offensive performance against the Buffalo Bills. Yes, the game legitimized my serious concerns about the offense but I did not want to overreact to a single contest. A Week 5 road game against potentially the best defense the Patriots will play this season is not the time for panic.
