FOXBOROUGH — The results aren’t there right now, it stinks, and there are no excuses.
That’s what Mac Jones said about the Patriots’ performance after a 20-17 loss at Gillette Stadium dropped the Patriots to 2-7 on the season.
The ending was familiar for New England, which found itself with the ball trailing by one score with about two minutes to go yet again. Most of New England’s losses this year have been decided by a touchdown or less.
“The hard part is knowing what you’re capable of doing, and not being able to do it,” Patriots receiver JuJu Smith-Schuster said after the game.
