After a forced Week Five bye, the Patriots and Broncos will finally face-off at Gillette Stadium today, a beautiful and crisp fall day in New England. With that comes the return of FPC with our Week Six Live Blog. Cam Newton returns from his Covid-forced absence, but some others (Shaq Mason, Derek Rivers) are on the Covid list for today, so the Patriots are still impacted by the seemingly never-ending virus. Even with these losses, the return of Newton is a game-changer in a must-win game for the Patriots. The Broncos, although talented, are a very young team that the Patriots should have the upper hand against, but Denver has always given the Patriots trouble, so it wouldn’t be surprising if they did again today.
With six minutes to go before kickoff, now is the time to hit the bathroom, grab a drink and some food, and open up that tab with the Week Six Live Blog on auto-refresh. Enjoy the game!

2:51- Jet sweep for nine; 3rd & 1…
2:17- Run for three by Freeman; 1st & 10 as we hit the two-minute warning. The defense needs to stop the run or this is going to be a long day. 1st & 10…
2:00- Lindsay gains six even when the Patriots have seven guys up; that is not a good sign. 2nd & 4…
1:16- Same exact thing. Seven guys up and Denver just pushes them back from a gain of five. 1st & 10…
:35- Incomplete pass as the Patriots defense looks alive on that play; 2nd & 10…
:29- SACK! Simon makes the play and pushes the Broncos back 13 yards; 3rd & 23, timeout, Broncos.
:24- No gain after a great play by Adrian Phillips; 4th & 23…
:19- Field goal, Broncos. McManus hits from 52 yards out; Broncos 12, Patriots 3
:18- Newton takes a knee and we’ll head to halftime. The Broncos dominated, but they only lead by nine. The Patriots passing game and run defense need to come to life if they expect to win this game. Denver 12, New England 3
HALFTIME
15:00- Harris runs for four yards; 2nd & 6 from their own 28. Go to Harris!
14:19- No gain by Burkhead; the line is an issue. 3rd & 7…
12:39- Newton gets hammered and this offensive line is becoming a problem. Truth is they are missing three starters, which is hard to overcome. 4th & 12…
11:53- Jeudy gains 16 on the crossing route; 1st & 10, Jeudy got dinged up…
11:12- Gain of one by Lindsay; 2nd & 9…

9:46- Yuck. A gain of 35 by Patrick. The Patriots can’t put it together today. 1st & 10…
1:47- Sorry for the technical difficulties. We return with a catch and fumble by Ryan Izzo. Rough day, I can’t say that enough.
:37- The Patriots defense held again, but McManus connected again for the 6th time today. Broncos 18, Patriots 3
:28- Interception, Broncos. Another tipped pass, another possession ended. Just a really tough day for the New England offense.
FOURTH QUARTER
13:40- White runs for one on 2nd down; 3rd & 4…
12:46- Terrible spot on the run by White. That needs to be challenged. 4th & 1 and the Patriots will punt again. Yuuuuuck.
11:30- No gain on the run sets up another 3rd & long for Denver…
10:48- Good spot for Denver but it’s 4th & 1…
10:14- It appeared to be roughing the punter and there was interference with the returner, but Slater avoided the punter. The Patriots offense will have decent field position as they start from their own 35.

9:36- Newton runs for 37 and the Patriots are finally in the red zone. 1st & Goal from the eight…
9:15- White for one, 2nd & Goal…
8:45- Newton for five, ball at the one; 3rd & Goal…
8:33- Newton looked like he extended the ball over for six, but they called him down. It SHOULD be reviewed…and it will be.
8:33- Touchdown, but instead of kicking the one, they went for two!?! Bad mistake by Belichick. Sorry, that was wrong. That can’t be argued, that was a mistake. Broncos 18, Patriots 9
8:08- Lindsay runs for nine; 2nd & 1…
5:15- INTERCEPTION, PATRIOTS! J.C. Jackson caught it at that time, and the Patriots are set up at the Broncos 25.
5:07- Newton is swarmed and sacked for a loss of five; 2nd & 15
3:52- Newton runs for 12 on 3rd & 17 and Folk will come on the attempt the field goal…

3:!4- INTERCEPTION, PATRIOTS!! Jones with the play and the Patriots actually have a chance.
3:09- Incomplete, scary pass. 2nd & 10…
2:57- Throwback from Edelman to White for 22 yards…
2:30- Incomplete, 2nd & 10…
2:25- White gains six on the reception; 3rd & 4 from the Denver 44…
2:17- White looked like he had it but he simply does not break tackles; 4th & 1…
2:00- Newton gains FIVE on the QB sneak. Holy crap. 1st & 10 and the Patriots appear ready to steal this game from the young Broncos. Two-minute warning…
