Good morning!
Your daily rundown of what’s going on with the Patriots, Red Sox, Celtics, Bruins and Revolution, and what’s about to happen…
- The Patriots’ hopes of a second-half playoff push took a major hit on Sunday, as New England was unable to overcome a 21-10 halftime deficit and fell to the previously 2-7 Texans, 27-20.
- Greg isn't surprised with the result ... haven't we seen a similar result less than a year ago?
- While offensive struggles have usually doomed the Patriots in these close losses this season, New England’s secondary was absolutely carved up by Deshaun Watson throughout Sunday’s loss.
- Greg also broke down the Patriots’ disheartening showing on 98.5 The Sports Hub.
- The good news for Celtics fans? Jayson Tatum is now signed through at least the 2024-25 season thanks to a five-year, $195 million extension.
- The bad news for the Celtics? Gordon Hayward is heading to Charlotte — with Boston potentially left with next to nothing in return. Woooooof.
- B-Robb — who may be operating on just 30 minutes of sleep during this whirlwind of a week in the NBA — also broke down Boston’s signings of both Tristan Thompson and Jeff Teague.
- B-Robb also takes a look at other free-agent options available for the C’s — as well as the fallout from the Enes Kanter trade.
- Sean has some good news about the next wave of Red Sox talent — and gives his thoughts on Theo Epstein’s future in baseball.
- Conor explores the greatest “what if” players in Bruins history.
