agreed. You still cant get away with a terrible defense but u dont need a great one. I think the pats d is good. but the reason they are playing at their level atm is again, catching up = mistakes.

That's kind of how it's been for the last few years. They give up a lot of passing yards because teams are usually playing from behind. Their turnover differential is always one of the best in the league. We need some more pass rushers or some help in the secondary in the next draft. Can you imagine the Pats with the Giants' D line? That would be insane.

Just read on ESPN that if the Texans hadn't picked up JJ Watt with the 11th pick, that Patriots probably would have with the 17th. Fvck!

well lets admit one thing tho. when 6 of your games per year are buffalo.. jets and miami... its kinda hard not to look good.

honestly, I think the AFC north overall is the toughest damn division out there. Yeah cleveland isnt winning alot but they are in every game they play. barely losing.
