Andrew Farrell will be hanging his head after this one, but collectively the Revs should keep their heads held high. New England stayed in the game, despite an early red card, and pulled within a goal of a draw. Now time to get to work.
The chips didn't fall the Revolution's way on Saturday against their bitter rivals D.C. United, but there's plenty of reason to stay positive. New England remains in the playoff race, & Heaps' squad has proven that they can learn from their mistakes.
No one wants to stop re-living the Revs' 5-0 win over the Galaxy. So let's not! We talked to Josie Becker of LAG Confidential to break down some of the story lines that came out of the match.
The Revs are arguably the hottest team in MLS right now. And their secret is many-fold. Team chemistry, seized opportunities, and potent leadership are all ingredients in the Revolution's recent success. Can they keep it up? All signs point to yes.
The Revs secured back-to-back wins for the first time in 2013 with a 2-0 victory over Toronto FC. Now the question is: can they continue their winning ways against LA and DC? Could the playoffs be on the horizon for Jay Heaps' side?
The Revs shocked just about everyone on Saturday night as they pulled off a huge upset on the road at Houston. The boys in blue truly sparkled as they stuck to Heaps' game plan and secured three points, sending the Dynamo on a bona fide losing streak

With more than a quarter of the season gone, when will those who are under-performing be benched in favor of others who are willing and ready to contribute? When, I ask you?? Anyway, here's some quick. painful thoughts about Wednesday's loss.
It was a hard-earned point that New England secured last night in Portland, OR. And the only thing keeping them from stealing a full three was their lack of a clinical finish. The new formation is working, but some tweaks may still be needed.
The Revs bounced back from their recent string of lifeless draws and losses with a big 2-0 win over the Philadelphia Union on Saturday night. Here we take a closer look at the good (of which there was plenty), the bad, and the ugly. Oh, and the GOALS
It seems that the Revs can only play either defense or offense, but not both at the same time yet. Here are some not-so-cheery reflections on Saturday's match against New York which i think left us ALL with a hangover.
Another late-game goal doomed the Revs once again. But what's more worrisome is the lack of offense right now. What's the solution? Well, it might have to do with Juan Toja. And maybe even Chris Tierney (gasp!)
The 25 mph winds stole the headlines as both teams packed it in early and settled for a point a piece. Benny came back and got a yellow card for diving in the box. Scott Caldwell got his 2nd consecutive start, and Matt Reis got his 2nd clean sheet.
An ugly, sloppy, chippy match led to an inevitable defeat for the boys in blue. Losing hurts, but hey at least it's not like we lost to an actual rival, right? Come commiserate with us.
The 2013 season has begun, and Corey is back with this weekly piece, offering off-the-cuff reactions to the game that was.
Shades of 2012, right? It's a good thing it's still preseason, because these are the kinds of late collapses that keep teams out of the playoffs.
It was a chippy, ugly game of soccer and it didn't need to be. Still no goals (from the run of play) to speak of for New England, and now possibly no Chris Tierney for a while. What a match to forget.
The Revs lost 2-0, and didn't look all that great at times, but really now. Can we all agree that someone forgot the memo that said "take it easy on the rough stuff, this is a preseason game?"
Saturday night match showed fans one thing they can be proud of heading into the off-season: that the Revolution are capable of carrying out a game plan. If only they had two weeks to prepare it for every other one this season....
