Week 11 panned out pretty darn well for the New England Patriots, to say the least.
The Patriots kicked off the NFL’s latest slate Thursday night when they shut out the Falcons in Atlanta. New England then was able to be a spectator on Sunday, and it watched the Indianapolis Colts annihilate the Buffalo Bills in upstate New York.
A Patriots win and a Bills loss signaled a changing of the guard in the AFC East, as New England now owns first place in the division. The shift didn’t do much for Bill Belichick, though, even after the disaster that was New England’s 2020 season.
