54 is an iconic number in Patriots history.
Tedy Bruschi and Dont'a Hightower wore it well and played in it even better.

Damn, you'd think with Aaron Rodgers being anti-vaxx, it'd be easier to catch something from him.
At what point in the @NFL season do you think we can accurately judge a team’s outlook and/or chances?
When do we stop making excuses, stop projecting what a team could be, and simply say:
“They are who they are.”

“There’s games where you just know. You get into that first series of the game and you go uh oh… there is ZERO chance we’re winning this game”
Whit was on the other side of Belichick’s “on to Cincinnati” moment… and he’s still scarred 😂
From a 2015 article in ESPN:
"In testimony in a case over whether to legalize some sports betting in New Jersey, Goodell stressed that an association with gambling would damage fans' perception of the NFL."

NFL said it has reached commercial agreements with three sports betting operators ahead of the 2026 season: DraftKings, FanDuel and Fanatics Betting and Gaming.

The wild story about this game is that @TomBrady broke one of his fingers on his throwing hand at the end of Friday practice and then went out and threw for 352 and 2 TDs. 🐐🐐🐐

Every time I hear about Aaron Donald it reminds of the time Joe Thuney somehow blocked him 1 vs. 1 in critical Super Bowl snaps. 🤯

The Brady-Belichick Patriots weren’t merely an outlier. They were operating on a different planet.
From 2012 to 2019, on 1st downs outside the red zone with 3:30 to 1:40 left before halftime:
• New England posted a 68.1% run rate, 89% higher than the average of the other 31 teams (36.1%).
• The Patriots ran 77 times versus a 41.2 average for the other 31 teams.
In that same situation across 1st and 2nd downs, they attempted only three total passes of 20+ air yards (80% fewer than the average of the other 31 teams).
This is what playing keep away looks like: drain the clock and reduce the opponent’s opportunity to answer before halftime.
This strategy helped set up one of the Patriots dynasty’s signature advantages: securing the final possession before halftime and creating opportunities to score on both sides of the break.
Just look at the separation on this chart.
We explain the entire strategy in much greater detail in the video below. 👇
