FOXBOROUGH – The Patriots are probably thankful that it was raining all game long. It makes for a better reason for losing than “they were probably tanking”.
In one of the ugliest games in recent memory, the Los Angeles Chargers somehow beat the Patriots 6-0 on Sunday afternoon at Gillette Stadium. The Chargers have to be arguably the worst coached team in the league, as nearly everyone except the coach himself has Brandon Staley gone by year’s end. The Chargers are perhaps more of a mess than the Patriots are, as they have lots more talent, especially on offense, but could only score two field goals against a woebegone team which is obviously focused on draft position in April.
