6 takeaways from the Patriots preseason finale loss to Raiders

Another week brings another preseason loss and more questions about the New England offense.

The Patriots dropped their preseason finale against the Raiders 23-6 Friday night in Las Vegas.

For the second week in a row, the Patriots had an offensive player leave due to injury. Last week, it was Tyquan Thornton. This week, it was Ty Montgomery.

The Patriots were able to complete a lot of passes, but the offense lacked the explosiveness to gain big chunks of yards and make big plays. Kevin Harris was a bright spot for the run game with some solid carries including a 33-yard run.
