The Kendrick Bourne situation is bizarre and other leftover Patriots thoughts

BOSTON -- The Patriots possessed the football nine times on Sunday. They scored points once. The offense actually gave up as many points as it scored.

That's obviously quite bad, and there's not one single player who likely could have saved the day by his lonesome. So don't get this twisted.

But the ongoing Kendrick Bourne situation is bizarre. And it's not at all good for the Patriots.

The receiver has seemingly been in Bill Belichick's doghouse since midsummer, when he was one of several Patriots who participated in a fight during joint practices with the Panthers and then didn't dress for the second preseason game.
