Daniel Radcliffe might want to take some Polyjuice Potion next time he’s in New England. Back in 2014, the “Harry Potter” named Patriots quarterback Tom Brady as one of his heroes. But much has changed since then, so much so that Radcliffe actually is rooting for the Los Angeles Rams to beat the Patriots in Super Bowl LIII. Why? Well, it all goes back to the fall of 2015, when a certain hat appeared in Brady’s locker. “Take that ‘MAGA’ hat out of your locker,” Radcliffe said during a recent interview at the Sundance Film Festival in Park City, Utah. “I feel like that was the moment when, as a country, we were

Super Bowl LIII: Patriots Could Take Advantage Of Rams With This Personnel Grouping
When the New England Patriots needed pivotal yards in the AFC Championship Game, they leaned on their best, most important players. As has been the case time and time again, quarterback Tom Brady connected with wide receiver Julian Edelman and tight end Rob Gronkowski, as the Patriots offense didn’t even let the Kansas City Chiefs touch the ball in overtime en route to a Super Bowl-clinching win. And while it was the air attack that helped convert three (!) third-and-10 situations in the extra frame, New England actually went run-heavy upon reaching the red zone: three Rex Burkhead runs, 15 yards, ballgame. Two of the three Burkhead runs to end... NESN.com

Mississippi State-Ole Miss Brawl In Wild Sequence During 2018 Egg Bowl
In the least surprising news of the day, the 2018 edition of The Egg Bowl got a little weird and a little wild. The historic rivalry between Mississippi State and Ole Miss always seems to deliver memorable moments, and Thursday’s installment was no different. The No. 18 Bulldogs dominated the Rebels from the opening kick-off and frustrations finally boiled over late in the third quarter. With Mississippi State leading 28-3, Ole Miss quarterback Matt Corral hit A.J. Brown for a long touchdown to cut the lead to 19. But after Brown scored, the players began jawing back and forth before Bulldogs safety Johnathan Abrams shoved Brown’s face, and w... NESN.com
Patriots Free Agency: What’s Next For Malcolm Butler After Super Bowl Benching?
by Zack Cox on Mon, Feb 19, 2018 at 10:42AM 1,318 Next up in our New England Patriots free agent profile series: cornerback Malcolm Butler. It’s time to accept that we may never hear the full story behind Butler’s Super Bowl LII benching, which still makes little sense more than two weeks later. After playing the most defensive snaps of any Patriots player during the regular season — more than 97 percent — Butler did not see the fie... NESN.com
Patriots’ Marquis Flowers Fires Back At Critics Of His Play In Super Bowl LII
The New England Patriots weren’t able to capture their sixth Super Bowl title, and one member of the Patriots’ much-maligned defense is sick of the blame game. Linebacker Marquis Flowers, who tallied one combined tackle in New England’s Super Bowl LII loss to the Philadelphia Eagles, went on a tweet storm Monday in which he fired a shot at Eagles tackle Lane Johnson, as well as local Boston media who called him out as part of the Patriots’ problem in their Super Bowl defeat. Yikes. Flowers’ anger is understandable. New England’s defense was shredded by Nick Foles and the Eagles’ offense, giving up 538 yards with cornerback Ma... NESN.com
