The saw their seven-game winning streak snapped on Saturday night when they fell to the at Lucas Oil Stadium, 27- Rourke Chartier Men Jersey 17. It wasn’t a strong start for Bill Belichick’s club as they were shut out through the first three quarters, but were able to cut the Indy lead to as little as three points after going on a 17-0 run in the midst of the fourth quarter. Just as the tides seemed to be shifting in the direction of the Patriots, however, Colts running back ripped off a back-breaking 67-yard touchdown that effectively eliminated any shot of a comeback for the Patriots.That lo s drops them to 9-5 on the season and are no longer the top seed in the AFC. That said, they are still in po se sion of first place in the AFC East and will have a pivotal game against the next Sunday at Gillette Stadium. Before we fully turn our attention to that game, however, let’s take a quick look back at this lo s to the Colts and take stock at where several Patriots are trending coming out of the matchup.Hunter Henry was one of the key reasons why the Patriots were able to stay in this game for as long as they did. As he’s proven to be for the bulk of the season, the tight end was a key outlet for throughout the evening, particularly when New England was in spitting distance of the end zone. Henry caught six of his eight targets for a team-high 77 yards and two touchdowns in the lo s. Those two touchdowns bring Henry’s season total to nine, which is a new career-high.Henry’s second touchdown was one of Mac Jones’ best throws of the night and did show how much of a rapport the two have developed in such a short time. With pre sure breathing down on him, Jones threw into traffic and was able to zip the ball just in front of a Colts defender and hit Henry, who was sliding slightly to his right for the score. A big TD for !: / Patriots app New England Patriots (@Patriots) One of the biggest i sues on the night for New England was the special teams unit. They had systematic collapses throughout the contest and directly led to points going on the board for the opposition. The first miscue came on the Patriots second offensive po se sion of the game. was set to punt the ball deep in his own territory and fullback failed to block his defender, who then had a clean line to pull off the block. Indy’s then picked up the loose ball for the touchdown to go up 14-0 right before the end of the first quarter. BLOCKED PUNT!BLOCKED PUNT!BLOCKED PUNT!BLOCKED PUNT!: Indianapolis Colts (@Colts) Another major mistake by the Patriots specials teams unit came in the second half. The Melker Karlsson Kids Jersey Colts were lining up for a 46-yard field goal on their first po se sion of the third quarter and Michael Badgley’s kick was wide right, which would have kept the Indy lead at 17. However, Patriots special teamer was called for offsides, which not only gave Badgley another shot at the kick, but moved him five yards closer. He then made the second attempt to give the Colts a 20-0 lead.N’Keal Harry’s tenure in New England Eric Fehr Kids Jersey hasn’t lived up to the first-round billing by any stretch of the imagination, but the wide receiver did turn in arguably his best play in a Patriots uniform. On a third-and-6 play at the 2:50 mark of the fourth quarter and the Patriots down by 10, Mac Jones uncorked a 43-yard pa s to Harry, who was able to leap over his defender to make the catch. That grab — along with the roughing the pa ser penalty also enforced on the play — moved the Patriots inside the 10-yard line of the Colts and eventually helped them get within a field goal. NKeal Harry got PFF (@PFF) Harry was also wide open for what would have been an easy touchdown earlier in the fourth quarter, but the Patriots flea-flicker was too slow to develop for Jones to find him. Here’s what happened downfield with N’Keal Harry. Important to keep in mind: Mac Jones didn’t have any time to see this because of how slowly that flea flicker came together. Henry McKenna (@McKennAnalysis) Those were the types of plays that the Patriots were hoping to see with more regularity when they drafted Harry back in 2019. While it’s hard to expect this to be the key turning point for him going forward, this is a nice flash of what could still be untapped potential for the young receiver.It was not a good day at the office for left tackle Isaiah Wynn. He struggled in pa s protection and couldn’t contain whenever the Colts pa s rusher lined up on top of him. In all, Wynn allowed four pre sures on the night, including a sack on Mac Jones. He also didn’t contribute positively in the running game either. In fact, he was responsible for a lo s of yardage after he ran into . Isaiah Wynn made … a choice Christian D’Andrea, 2021 PAC champion (@TrainIsland) Wynn was also penalized for a false start in the closing minute of the third quarter.This was not the best game for Mac Jones. As put it on social media in the midst of the game on Saturday night, the No. 15 overall pick was dealing with The Patriots could not get much of anything going offensively through the first three quarters and Jones was noticeably rattled at times to begin this game. New England was called for a delay of game penalty on their opening po se sion because Jones wasn’t looking at the clocking ticking down, and Alabama product threw an interception when the Patriots were inside the red zone right before halftime.On a micro-level, this was one of the Joel Ward Men Jersey worst games we’ve seen from Jones this season. So why is his stock trending up? I was impre sed with the way Jones was able to shake off those early struggles and help the Patriots claw back in this game with a 17-0 run in the fourth quarter. One of the big questions we’ve had about Jones is whether or not he has the ability to throw his team back into a game. While he wasn’t able to fully complete the comeback, I give him credit for coming close. That is the type of character-building game that is needed for the developing rookie and he showed promise in a hostile environment. New England’s inability to stop the running game was a concern going into this game and those fears were realized pretty early in this game. On their second offensive po se sion of the game, the Colts almost exclusively leaned on the running game to go up 7-0 and proceeded to have their way with the Patriots on the ground. For the first half, Indy had already piled up 122 yards rushing Patrick Marleau Men Jersey as a team and that only continued in the second half. Of their 275 yards of total offense for the game, 226 were on the ground as the Colts moved on 5.8 yards per carry clip. The back-breaker came in the fourth quarter when Jonathan Taylor ripped off that 67-yard touchdown run that basically took a comeback off the board for the Patriots.This has been a key weakne s for the Patriots for the bulk of the season and could prove to be a fatal flaw in the postseason if they don’t get it corrected quickly.When any team comes out as sluggish as th…
