Welcome to the Week 12 grades! After 23 years as Patriots coach, it seems that Bill Belichick has finally hit rock bottom in the NFL. The “Patriot Way” has become the “Wrong Way.” The Patriots’ humiliating 10-7 loss to the Giants in Week 12 marks a low point for Belichick and his team. They made history as the first NFL team in 30 years to lose back-to-back games while allowing 10 or fewer points in each game. This is a stark contrast to their previous track record, as before this season, Belichick had only lost two such games in 28 seasons as a head coach. The Patriots are now 1-2 when allowing 10 or fewer points, a sharp contrast to the rest of the league’s 48-0 record in similar situations.
The Vikings also had a rough time on Monday night as they faced a dramatic 10-9 loss to the Bears, with quarterback Josh Dobbs throwing four interceptions. Now, let’s dive into the grades for Week 12, starting with the Monday game in Minnesota. If you want to see the grades for the Thanksgiving games and Black Friday game, be sure to click here.
