Patriots News 12-21: The Diggs Effect, Baltimore Presents A Key Problem

Related Topics: Mike Vrabel, Baltimore Ravens

Good morning. Steve is on vacation this weekend, so I’ll be holding things down this morning while he’s away.

I’ll do the best to fill his shoes, and here’s a look at this morning’s notes ahead of tonight’s showdown against the Ravens.

Coming off of last weekend’s loss against the Bills, this week was a big one for head coach Mike Vrabel. After coming up short in a game his team let slip away, Vrabel emphasized trying to make sure his team remained focused on moving forward ahead of this weekend.

Tonight’s contest is obviously huge, with New England trying to keep the edge on a Buffalo team that has the luxury of facing a woeful 3-11 Browns team in the early portion of Sunday’s slate of games.
