Patriots | James White runs for pair of scores

New England Patriots RB James White was good for five carries, 18 yards and two touchdowns in Week 12 against the Arizona Cardinals while adding one reception for minus-1 yard on his only target.

Footballguys View: The Patriots remembered that White is efficient on goal to go plays, but they forgot him in the passing game. He’s just a what the heck flex against the Chargers next week.

Patriots | Disastrous day for Cam Newton

New England Patriots QB Cam Newton completed 9-of-18 passes for 84 yards, no touchdowns and two interceptions in Week 12 against the Arizona Cardinals and he added nine rushes for 46 yards.

Footballguys View: The Patriots pass offense was dormant in this one, but an interception and a Donte Moncrief kick return set up the team with short fields on both touchdown drives. Newton isn’t a reliable play as he heads into a matchup with the Chargers while the Patriots playoff hopes are on life support.
