Week 11 brought another winnable yet losing effort when the Rams came to town last Sunday. Overall, Drake Maye looked great with a few hiccups thrown in. The game was close and the Patriots would have had a better chance to win without the sloppiness and penalties that have plagued this team all season long. Growing pains sure can be painful to go through and we’re all stuck right in the middle of it.
The experts pretty much kept the Patriots ranked 25th, the same as last week. The difference between New England and the bottom-dwellers is the optimism of having a young quarterback to build around in the coming years.
