Two weeks ago, Caedan Wallace settled into his locker and dropped his helmet. The Patriots’ final practice of the week had just ended. A trip to Miami awaited the next day, and with it, a chance to redeem their season-opening loss to Las Vegas. For Wallace, a 25-year-old offensive lineman, it was time to undress, shower, head home, pack and get ready to fly. But for now, that could all wait. A video message from his father had popped up on his phone. Wallace hit play. In the video, a slight woman dressed in all black stood inside a tidy…
The Patriots will face the Carolina Panthers this Sunday, with New England aiming to recover from its 21-14 loss to the Pittsburgh Steelers in Week 3.

FOXBORO — Drake Maye knows that he doesn’t need to perform advanced calculus to get to the bottom of his team’s issues from a week ago. “Shoot,” he said earlier this week, “it’s turnovers.” While agonizingly frustrating on one hand, on the other, those miscues that cost the Patriots a win against the Steelers are eminently fixable. That’s how Maye sees them, at least. “Turnovers in this league are such a big deal,” Maye said. “It’s one of those things that we can clean up. Holding onto the football, me holding on in the pocket, and the running backs (holding…

If the team loses to a Carolina squad that is considered less talented, there could be significant unrest in Foxborough. Boston Sports Journal Patriots writer Greg A. Bedard believes that winning Sunday’s game is critical for New England. “It’s absolutely critical,” Bedard said Thursday, via Patriots on CLNS. “If you don’t want the noise, then they have to win this game.” The Patriots disappointed their home crowd last week, losing 21-14 to the Pittsburgh…

Friday night brought an air of desperation to Fenway Park, with the Red Sox pushing all their chips to the center of the table in hopes of ending the club’s four-year postseason drought. With their playoff position already secure, Saturday brought a much different vibe. The Red Sox shifted to postseason preparation mode in Saturday’s 2-1 loss to the Detroit Tigers, sitting multiple regulars while facing a Tigers team that was still fighting for its own playoff life. Jahmai Jones’ two-run single in the top of the fifth proved the difference, punching Detroit’s ticket to the playoffs and ensuring the…
