On Sunday afternoon, the New England Patriots turned in one of their worst performances of the season with a blowout home loss at the hands of the Green Bay Packers.

“No. I always appreciate what Mack has to say. What my intent was was just to remind everybody that we want to build a program that has to look a certain way. When you have the most success is when everybody has the same mentality,” he said, per Mike Reiss of ESPN NFL Nation on X, formerly Twitter.

The Patriots aren’t necessarily falling apart at the seams just yet, although the team is certainly on high alert after Sunday’s embarrassment, which occurred with Tom Brady in the house, calling the game for FOX, and with Rob Gronkowski having been inducted into the team’s Hall of Fame the day prior.
It will be interesting to see if the Patriots make any big moves ahead of the upcoming NFL trade deadline, which is set for Tuesday afternoon, as there are certainly some clear holes to plug on this roster.

In any case, the Patriots will next hit the field next Sunday for a tough game against the Detroit Lions in Germany.
