Much like the Patriots’ dysfunctional offense, Bailey Zappe has found himself stuck in the same, frustrating script over the last two weeks.
For two straight weeks, Mac Jones and the Patriots’ offense has imploded in grand fashion, prompting Bill Belichick to yank his QB1 off the field after relinquishing six turnovers over six quarters against the Cowboys and Saints.
Both times, Zappe has been tasked with trying to salvage any silver linings out of a Patriots offense that has orchestrated one trek to the red zone since Week 2 — and has only recorded one offensive touchdown over the last 10 quarters of play.
