COMMENTARY
Mac isn’t going to Minnesota.
But it probably shouldn’t be received as an outlandish, “click-baity” idea.
With Sunday’s 31-17 loss to the Miami Dolphins in the rear-view mirror, the 2-6 New England Patriots now have about a two percent chance, which seems high, to make the postseason with nine games remaining. They share the same odds as the Chicago Bears, who lost to the Chargers Sunday night.
The only three NFL teams in worse situations are the 2-6 New York Giants (one percent) and the one-win Cardinals and Panthers (less than one percent, each).
