![]() But I can 100 percent envision a scenario that “they’ll figure it out” becomes the phrase I incoherently mumbler over and over as I rock back and forth in the corner with my knees hugged to my chest and a ripped clown wig I found behind the dumpster at a Spirit Halloween firmly atop my head. Let the record show that as of this morning, I’m saying “they’ll figure it out” upright and with confidence.Much will obviously depend on how long Jones is out, but I think there’s enough intelligence in the locker room to address the issues and figure it out. They just can’t get into the end zone, and even worse, seem to be wildly turnover prone inside the 20. It was Devante Parker’s breakout game and Agholor seems to be coming into his own (finally). The running game remains solid and the seven different Patriots caught at least one pass yesterday. Keep in mind, this offense can move the ball.You watch this team have these little bursts or excellence followed by bouts of maniacal incompetence, and I don’t think it’s a homer take to say that New England could have won this game if they hadn’t shot themselves in the foot over and over again. The injury aside, this was a wildly entertaining, and wildly frustrating, game to watch.New England wasn’t going to win against Green Bay even with Jones in, and after that the schedule eases up a bit, so maybe if he can come back in 3-4 weeks the Patriots can be sitting at 3-4 or something along those lines and not totally out of the race. But there’s no point speculating right now, so I guess I’ll just move on. but the good news is that it has been reported as a high ankle sprain, which likely wouldn’t be season-ending. That it came in a loss makes it even worse. Negative X-rays are always encouraging, but if there’s significant ligament damage, that could be the end of that.īut still, duty calls, so here goes nuthin’. But there’s no use burying the lede here: stark reality is that pretty much everything I have to say today is more or less useless, as how this season plays out is going to depend very heavily on the results of today’s MRI on Mac Jones’s ankle. Losing to the Baltimore Ravens isn’t that big a deal most people expected an L here, and yesterday hammered home that absolutely nothing about the AFC makes any sense whatsoever.
