The New England Patriots ultimately lost at home on Sunday 25-20 against one of the best teams in the entire NFL.
However, the Patriots were in the game from the jump and managed to contain Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts on defense, while the banged-up offensive line kept Mac Jones upright against one of the league’s best front-sevens.
Even in a loss, there was a lot of good things to take away from the game. The defense looks elite as ever, and the offense looks competent. The Patriots showed confidence in their players, which is something we have failed to see the last few years. With that said, sloppy play hurt the team badly with two early turnovers leading to 14 points.
Let’s delve into some leftover notes from the game, now that we’ve had a chance to fully digest the heartbreaking loss.
