Good tidings to all! Hosanna in excelsis in more ways than one maybe! We are in the full swing of both the offseason and Christmas season! So why not get even more in the spirit by baking a delightful batch of Christmas cookies? And these cookies aren’t just any old sugar cookies—these are the Red Sox Offseason Christmas Cookies! Chock full of anxiety, consternation, and inaction, these cookies taste just like money that isn’t being spent, which, if we think about it, is really supposed to be the meaning of Christmas or something, according to Charlie Brown or whatever. They’re…

FOXBORO — Undrafted rookie outside linebacker Elijah Ponder has been a late riser for the Patriots this season. The rookie free agent, who came to the Patriots out of Cal Poly, has three sacks in his last four games. Ponder has seen his playing time increase since the Patriots traded Keion White to the 49ers in October, and he’s made the most of those opportunities with sacks against the Buccaneers, Jets and Giants. Ponder has 10 total pressures, including seven hurries, this season. This summer, he was called “probably one of the best (undrafted) free agent pickups” that Patriots outside…
The New England Patriots can clinch the AFC East division title and earn their first playoff berth since the 2021 season when they host the Buffalo Bills. The Patriots have won 10 straight games and are coming off their bye week. Buffalo comes in winners of their last two games and have won the last five division crowns. The Bills are also trying to avoid being swept by a division opponent for the first time since 2019. That was Tom Brady’s last season in New England, when the Bills lost both games to the Patriots.StoryBuffalo (9-4) at New England (11-2)Sunday,…
It’s no secret that the Boston Celtics need another center. Neemias Queta has been excellent since moving into the starting lineup, but the lack of depth in the middle of the court has seen Joe Mazzulla lean into a small-ball rotation with his second unit. Ideally, the Celtics would add a starting-level center and move Queta to the bench. Finding an elite big man to anchor the roster for the next five or more years is easier said than done, though. One player who has been floated as a potential target is LA Clippers center Ivica Zubac. The Clippers are…

The Patriots can clinch the AFC East title with a win over the Bills on Sunday at 1 p.m. ET. Keeping a division title alive is at stake for the Bills. Sunday afternoon’s matchup marks one of the most important Patriots games of his decade. The Patriots are 11-2 and riding a 10-game winning streak, but they still haven’t officially clinched a playoff spot. The Patriots already beat the Bills once, in Buffalo, in Week 5, and they’re coming off of their bye week. They’re banged up, however, and the Bills are favored, despite the game being held in Foxboro…
It’s almost as if Mike Vrabel spoke this season into existence. Win the division. Host playoff games. Compete for championships. Vrabel first voiced his goals at his introductory press conference in mid-January, the honeymoon phase of his honeymoon phase as the Patriots’ head coach. In that same press conference, Vrabel also said he wasn’t sure if the Patriots were even good enough to “take advantage of bad football.” He was right to feel that way about a franchise coming off consecutive four-win seasons and suffering from organizational rot. Now, how long ago does that feel? The Patriots can clinch a…
A lot has changed for the New England Patriots since Tom Brady left after the 2019 season, but some things are still the same. One of those things is the offensive coordinator, as Josh McDaniels is still calling plays for the Patriots on the sidelines. Now in his third stint as New England’s offensive coordinator, McDaniels is still good friends with Brady, who discussed him and Drake Maye in an interview with Colin Cowherd this week. So far, the seven-time Super Bowl champ loves everything he’s seen from and heard about Maye. “Josh McDaniels is still one of my great…
There isn’t much that has flummoxed Drake Maye to this point in his second season, but that doesn’t mean the Bills won’t try. When Buffalo’s defense rolls into Gillette Stadium on Sunday, led by defensive-minded head coach Sean McDermott, they’ll bring with them one of the most deception-based philosophies in the NFL. They love to disguise their coverages when opposing quarterbacks get to the line, changing the picture as soon as the ball is snapped. The goal? Confuse reads, force mistakes, or encourage passers to hold onto the football longer than they’d like while they sort through the confusion. The…
The Winter Meetings have come and gone, and while many of the top players on the market found new homes, the Red Sox largely came home from Orlando empty-handed. Now, with both Kyle Schwarber and Pete Alonso no longer available, the Red Sox will have to look elsewhere to round out their roster. Even without any more major additions the Red Sox should still be good enough to contend for another Wild Card berth, but the club remains one or two players short of being a true World Series contender. So as Craig Breslow and the front office regroups, here’s…
