FOXBORO — Before the Patriots beat the Los Angeles Chargers on Sunday for their first playoff victory in seven years, Stefon Diggs gathered his teammates together to share a motivational message. “Hey, be violent, man!” the veteran wide receiver said, as captured by the Patriots’ in-house media team. “Be smart, but when in doubt, crash the (expletive) out. It’s us vs. them, man. Ain’t nobody like us. Ain’t nobody believe in us. I like us, man. Go lay in on the line for your brother, man.” I LIKE US pic.twitter.com/nPdAQRLAIf — New England Patriots (@Patriots) January 12, 2026 Following New…

New England Patriots quarterback Drake Maye ran off the field to chants of “MVP! MVP! MVP!” on Sunday. It’s safe to say that he didn’t play like one, though… Maye, who turned the ball over twice and was one lucky bounce away from doing it a third time, deflected any and all credit following his first playoff victory over the Los Angeles Chargers at Gillette Stadium. “It wasn’t my best tonight, but hey, that’s why you have teammates — they picked me up tonight,” Maye said following the game, per team-provided video. “… I’ve got to be better.” New England…

FOXBORO — Countless MVP chants reigned down on quarterback Drake Maye in Sunday night’s 16-3 playoff win over the Chargers, so that must make the Patriots’ defense the MVU. Because the defense, not the offense, was the most valuable unit in the wild-card round win. The defense put Justin Herbert in a blender, leaving him battered and bruised by the end of the fourth quarter. The Chargers quarterback, who is considered one of the top in the league, couldn’t get comfortable behind an offensive line that features backups at both tackle spots. There were questions coming into Sunday night’s game…

The Los Angeles Chargers targeted a running back with their first-round pick in the 2025 NFL Draft and ultimately decided to take North Carolina star Omarion Hampton with the No. 22 overall selection. In doing so, they chose Hampton over some other very talented running backs, including Ohio State’s TreVeyon Henderson. The Patriots were happy to take Henderson with their second-round pick at No. 38 overall, and he has rewarded them with an excellent rookie campaign. Did the Chargers consider Henderson at No. 22? And what did they think of his skill set entering the draft? Sports Illustrated’s Albert Breer…

Here we are again. In the ‘Groundhog Day’-esque nightmare that never ends, the Boston Red Sox have once again inexcusably lost out on a top – and very signable – free-agent target. Alex Bregman, who spoke on more than one occasion during his lone Red Sox season about how much he enjoyed being in Boston and on the team, and made it clear he would welcome a long-term extension, will instead be a Chicago Cub for most, if not the rest of his playing career. And the ‘urgent,’ ‘engaged,’ and ‘aggressive’ Red Sox are up a creek without paddle, vessel,…

Jared Wilson (concussion), Harold Landry III (knee), Robert Spillane (ankle) and Kayshon Boutte (hamstring) will all be available for the contest at Gillette Stadium, with the former three returning from injuries that kept them out of regular season finale against the Miami Dolphins.

Dippre, Jeremiah Webb, Marcus Bryant, Caedan Wallace and Tommy DeVito.…
