The common theme this week is the New England Patriots are walking to the electric chair on Sunday.
They’ll likely be playing without their starting quarterback Mac Jones at Lambeau Field against Aaron Rodgers and the Green Bay Packers. This has moved far beyond just being an uphill battle for the Patriots. They’ll have to climb an entire mountain to upset the Packers on the road at a place where Rodgers rarely loses.
But fear not, Patriots fans, there is hope that they can get the job done, even with backup quarterback Brian Hoyer under center. That hope, however, will have to come on the ground instead of through the air.
