From sleeping in a closet as an OSU student assistant to becoming Mike Vrabel's most trusted football advisor, it's been a long journey to Foxborough for John “Stretch” Streicher. What makes this “rising star” so vital to New England's head coach?

“This guy is going to run an organization one day.”
John Streicher is Mike Vrabel’s version of Ernie Adams, and that’s not all: ‘This guy is going to run an organization one day’ - The Boston Globe
The 35-year-old never played football in college, but climbed the ranks alongside Mike Vrabel after the two met at Ohio State. Now, he's Vrabel's right-hand man in New England.

Call them The Homecoming Kings.

The ‘25 Patriots have gotten big-time performances from guys who have returned to their roots. On Sunday in Louisiana, it was LSU alums Will Campbell & Kayshon Boutte.

“There’s something about going back home,” mused Stefon Diggs with a smile after the game.

Kayshon Boutte and Will Campbell are the latest players to have big games when back on familiar turf — a common situation in the first part of this season.

Marcus Jones went down hard. He's still down.

The New England defense has been a step behind at times, but Rattler has played well.

And yeah, these refs aren't good.

Has 3 TDs today right?

Drake Maye is now 24 for 27 for 369 yards and a pair of touchdowns over the last four quarters of action. Dude's on a heater.

TD Patriots. They retake the lead with 31 seconds left in the half.

Fair question

Shouldn't they have punted there if they weren't trying the long field goal?

Botched snap leads to the turnover on downs.

Feels like the defense needs to respond here with a big play. Tenuous point in the game.

That was the first incomplete pass for Maye today, and the first since the end of the third quarter against the Bills.

Hill with the touchdown. First TD of the day for the Saints.

Cory Durden getting after it today. A feisty player.

Dating back to the Buffalo game, Maye is 18 for 19 for 287 yards in his last three quarters of action.
