Mike Vrabel hasn’t been shy in recent weeks in acknowledging that the New England Patriots’ offense, while performing well overall, needed to find better production within the run game.His offense responded with a season-high 175 yards rushing in Sunday’s 31-13 win over the Tennessee Titans, helping New England’s extend its winning streak to four games.That’s the kind of run that the AFC East-leading Patriots (5-2) haven’t achieved since recording seven consecutive victories during the 2021 season. That was also the last time New England made the playoffs.“All 11 guys on the same page,” said running back Rhamondre Stevenson, who had 18…

With the Boston Celtics about to kick off a new season on Wednesday, Joe Mazzulla has been doing everything he can to prepare them for a challenging campaign with Jayson Tatum sidelined. Given a younger, less experienced roster this season, Mazzulla has pushed them hard to improve throughout the preseason, especially on defense. While his intense leadership style may come off as unusual at times, Jaylen Brown believes it’s exactly what this team needs. “I think Joe’s done a great job of setting the tone, the pace, the energy, the style that we need to survive, the style that we…

QUINCY – Despite some strong pushback from hosting Quincy, Duxbury volleyball was able to claim a 3-0 (25-20, 25-14, 25-23) Patriot League victory to keep its perfect season alive. The Dragons (19-0) were playing their fifth match in six days and had some lineup changes due to this game frequency. Head coach Stacy Hampton said this contributed to some mistakes but that she was happy with her team’s effort. “It wasn’t our best night but I am proud of the kids,” Hampton said. “We’ve been a team all season that steps up when we need them and they did that…
Jaylen Brown’s hamstring injury did not limit him in Monday’s Celtics practice, according to head coach Joe Mazzulla. Mazzulla said Brown was a full participant as Boston prepares for its regular-season opener Wednesday night against the Philadelphia 76ers at TD Garden. “He went through practice today,” Mazzulla said. “We’ll just continue to see how he progresses. He was able to go today.” Brown exited in the first quarter of last Wednesday’s preseason finale with what the team called left hamstring tightness. He did not return to the game and was held out of live drills during Friday’s practice. Asked whether…
Coming off an 89-win season and their first playoff appearance since 2021, the Boston Red Sox are heading into a pivotal offseason as they look to go from Wild Card team to World Series contender. One area where the Red Sox need to improve is the starting rotation, where they still need a true No. 2 starter behind Garrett Crochet after failing to acquire one at the trade deadline. While they have plenty of pitching depth, the staff could use another top-of-the-rotation arm to slot in behind Crochet, similar to how Boston traded for Chris Sale to pair with David…
Spoiler alert: You’re going to see a familiar face in our “Stock Up” section this week. The New England Patriots earned their fourth straight victory Sunday in Tennessee thanks to another brilliant performance by second-year quarterback Drake Maye, who completed 21 of 23 passes while carving up the Titans’ defense for 222 yards and two touchdowns. This time around, however, Maye had some help from his rushing attack: Rhamondre Stevenson rumbled for 88 yards on 18 carries after managing 70 total rushing yards in his previous three games combined. The Patriots’ defense, meanwhile, rebounded from a slow start to stifle…
The coach who ended the Celtics’ 2024-25 season was on hand Monday to help them prepare for 2025-26. Tom Thibodeau, who was fired by the Knicks weeks after New York’s second-round triumph over Boston this past spring, visited a Celtics practice at the Auerbach Center ahead of Wednesday’s season opener against the Philadelphia 76ers. It’s not unusual for unemployed coaches to travel to other teams’ facilities — ex-Memphis Grizzlies bench boss Taylor Jenkins attended a C’s practice earlier this month — but Thibodeau was able to provide a unique perspective. “I think that was awesome having Thibs,” Jaylen Brown said.…
2025 In A Discarded-On-The-Dugout-Floor NutshellOne of the most valuable players on the 2025 Red Sox was, for two months, one of the worst players in baseball. But at least he was playing baseball at all.Trevor Story was saved by money. Amidst a Red Sox tenure that had been defined almost entirely by injuries, Story entered the 2025 season healthy, finally. And with that health. . . he proceeded to be one of the worst players in the world for two whole months of the baseball calendar. His OPS bottomed out at .581 on May 28. He’d struck out 67 times…
NASHVILLE, Tenn. — “Vra-bel. Vra-bel. Vra-bel.” That’s the sound the Patriots and their head coach heard as they salted away another victory Sunday afternoon, closing out a 31-13 rout of the Tennessee Titans with a series of kneeldowns. Were those chants coming from the scores of traveling New England fans, who occupied roughly half of the seats at Nissan Stadium? Or from Titans supporters rueing their team’s decision to fire Mike Vrabel? “That’s neither here nor there,” said Vrabel, who tried hard to downplay the game’s most obvious storyline. “I mean, I’m happy for my players. … I guess it’s…
