The Patriots won the AFC East on Sunday with a win paired with a Buffalo Bills loss to the Philadelphia Eagles. The Patriots’ immediate focus will be on the playoffs, but they will quickly turn their attention to the NFL Draft and free agency. Despite their success this season, the Patriots will have holes to fill in the offseason. Regardless of whether the Patriots re-sign K’Lavon Chaisson or not, they could be targeting pass rushers. The Patriots have just 31 sacks through 16 games. CBS Sports’ Josh Edwards projected they would draft Cashius Howell out of Texas A&M with their…
Jaylen Brown etched his name alongside Larry Bird’s in the Celtics record books Sunday night in Portland. But his milestone came in a losing effort. Brown scored 37 points to tie Bird’s franchise record of nine consecutive 30-point games, but it wasn’t enough in a 114-108 loss to the Trail Blazers that snapped Boston’s four-game win streak. The Celtics received limited offensive production from Brown’s supporting cast — Derrick White, Payton Pritchard and Sam Hauser combined for just 21 points and went 6-for-26 from 3-point range after scoring 73 in Friday’s victory over Indiana — and committed 20 turnovers, including…

EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. — Efton Chism III won’t soon forget this day. The Patriots undrafted rookie wide receiver received the first extensive offensive snaps of his career in Sunday’s 42-10 win over the Jets, and his patience paid off with his first career NFL catch and touchdown. “Super special, super surreal,” Chism said after the game. “I think you always kind of dream of those moments, and then they happen, and I’m very blessed and thankful to be here and just have a great receiver room, great quarterback, great coaches, top down in our program. It’s special. I’m very thankful…
EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. — Your eyes weren’t lying while watching Patriots quarterback Drake Maye light up the Jets in a 42-10 win Sunday afternoon. Maye was perfect. Sure, the stats might say that Maye was a mere 19-of-21, throwing two incompletions. But the first incompletion was dropped by rookie wide receiver Kyle Williams, and the other came when Maye was under pressure and offloaded the ball to DeMario Douglas. Otherwise, Maye threw for 256 yards and five scores and led the Patriots on touchdown-scoring drives in all six of his possessions. So, what went so right? “Coach’s playcalling. Getting guys…
The only drama from the New England Patriots’ Week 17 shellacking over the New York Jets came after the whistle. As the Patriots went into halftime sporting a 35-3 lead, Mike Vrabel attempted to calm down an irate Christian Barmore. The defensive tackle appeared to yell at his head coach as other staffers tried to settle him down. Vrabel downplayed any conflict when explaining the situation during Sunday’s post-game press conference. “Just reminding everybody to keep their composure,” Vrabel said. “We have an identity that we’ve shown and that we’ve put out there on the football field and make great…

If you are an optimistic kind of Bruins fan – and, granted, your population is dwindling at the moment – you are just waiting for the pendulum to swing back in the team’s favor. You’ve seen it happen once already. Surely it can happen again. Right? Well, that’s the hope, anyway. After the 4-1 loss in Buffalo on Saturday when the Sabres had more goals (3) in the second period than the Bruins had shots (2), the B’s are riding a five-game losing streak (0-4-1), one short of their longest skid of futility, which was six straight Ls in October…
