After losing to the Bills, the Patriots will lock horns with the Jaguars
Last Sunday, the Buffalo Bills defeated the New England Patriots in a dominating fashion. The 33-21 victory for the Bills was led by masterful performances from quarterback Josh Allen and Isaiah Mckenzie. The former, in particular, was in sublime form as he threw for a record 314 yards with 3TDs.
After suffering back-to-back blows against the Colts and the Bills, winning their last two matches is a must. Luckily for them, their next opponents are the Jacksonville Jaguars, who have just won 2 matches this season.
The demand for a win is at an all-time for Bill Belichick and his men. And with an easy fixture against Jacksonville, the Patriots can also boost up their lost morale.
Bill Belichick is in awe of Trevor Lawrence
Ahead of the Patriots’ clash against the Jaguars, Belichick, when quipped about the Jaguars’ Trevor Lawrence, the veteran HC said that the rookie QB had shown tremendous improvement over the season. “I think he’s gotten more comfortable as the season’s gone on and gotten comfortable with the offense,” Belichick said.
The Patriots coach was then pointed at the fact that Lawrence hasn’t exactly delivered great performances this season. In response, Belichick maintained the same stance and felt he would be a great player in the future.
Trevor Lawrence over his past 8 games (half a season) would be on a 17 game pace of 2 TDs. Total. In a full season.

“He’s pretty good at all of them [throws, conversions, playmaking] and continues to get better. So I think he’s had a good year and I think he’ll be a solid NFL player. Maybe great, I don’t know, but he’s certainly made a lot of progress this year.”
