Obviously a lot of ball to be played before these two teams meet later this season, possibly for the *first* time this season.

But we're clearly behind New England right now defensively. Let's see if getting Quinn and possibly Gregory back will make a difference, along with improvement in the secondary.

Jourdan Lewis needs to play more. He is the only true playmaker we have in the secondary. And he is probably the best tackler of the corners as well

All of these posts about the defense and comparing us to the NE have to be trolling. Just have to be at this point.
I mean are you seriously trying to win a Super Bowl or just be cute and win 1-2 playoff games? If it's the former, then we need to address this defense before it ruins our season.

Man I'm trying to get INTO THE PLAYOFFS! Beating the Giants and Commanders doesn't mean we are a playoff team. They are on the right track. They look solid. But most of us had us going 3-0 out the gate.

So yeah the lat thing on my mind is looking at what the Pats are doing.

In the playoffs we're going to go against PHI, NO, GB, LAR...elite offenses that can expose this defense. Let's be honest about what's going on and address it now. We need Minkah and another dlineman if Gregory doesn't come back.

The defense always crumbles in the playoffs. That's our M.O.

NE defense is averaging 1.5 pts a game right now. Let that sink in.

Everyone is behind New England right now defensively.

Wont matter who's in the secondary if the D-line doesn't get their crap together

We've played against 2 of the better offensive lines in the league (one was our former OLine coach). What does New England have to do with anything. We can only play and beat the team in front of us.. So far we're 2-0 and both wins are in our division - that's more important than New England.
