Message: [QUOTE="Alsacs, post: 2822002, member: 652"] The Pats defenses were terrible in 2009-2011 range but this team isn’t bad defensively. They have been a bend but don’t break defense for a long time. Their PPGs on defense have always been good. Their problem is LB and it’s been bad for a while but Belichick hasn’t addressed it. It’s rumored he wanted Vander Eash in the draft but Dallas took him. They have a solid secondary and can get pressure but RBs kill them in the passing game. It’s been like that for a while. The whole league sucks on defense but Belichick has been stubborn on the speed of the LBs. Roberts and Van Noy are slow and Hightower is even slower. [/QUOTE]
