Patriots Power Rankings Roundup: Week Five

At the end of the day, the Patriots’ loss to the Buccaneers was heartbreaking in more ways than one. Of course, the Tom Brady return angle took center stage, however, by the end of the night, another quarterback was working on a signature moment of his own.

Unfortunately, it was not to be for Patriots or Mac Jones who saw their chance of beating Brady and the Bucs evaporate when the 56-yard field goal attempt clanked off the left upright and bounce into the endzone. Game over.
