Patriots might not be able to fix this

A look at the AFC East standings is a shock to the system. It has been rare over the past two decades to need to scroll down to see the Patriots.

Gaethje had won the interim lightweight belt, but wanted no part of it. He knew that the real champion, and the real belt, were in Russia. Khabib Nurmagomedov was supposed to fight that… Source link
