Patriots urged to sign free agent RB after Antonio Gibson’s brutal injury

The New England Patriots are on the upswing after their win over reigning MVP Josh Allen and the Super Bowl hopeful Bills. The passing game has been electric this season, with Drake Maye on pace to throw just seven interceptions on the year and being top five in passing yards. Stefon Diggs' emergence over the past two weeks has been great to see, too, with back-to-back 100-yard games. All in all, there's plenty to be excited about.

On the other hand, the running game has been very disappointing. Rhamondre Stevenson's three fumbles in five games make him a major liability, and even so, he's under four yards per carry on the year.
