Defense is back in the NFL

[jblaze2004]

Watching the jaguars, eagles, and Vikings play. Alot of good defenses.

Jags gave up 42 points. Steelers vaunted defense gave up 45. Vikes are kicking butt, though.

Brady has 5 rings. NE's defensive ranking those years?

8th, 6th, 2nd, 1st, 1st

It never really left the good teams.

That's some mighty defense right there

Well, except for the Patriots, whose defense sucks this year. They are the 5th worst defense in the NFL, 28th overall.

Which is why I wanted the Jags to play them. Stealers would have lost to the patsies. Jags better iron out the problems they had on D today.

Till Free Agency decimates their unit.

QB and Coaching is where you get long term success.

You gotta stop the other QB, too.

Do that Stat again until today forgetting the first 8 weeks when they made adjustments and moved blokes around etc.

Everyone can have a bad run but the Pats are the best at identifying them and rectifying the problem like they do every season all over their team.

They've improved over the last month, and are peaking now that the games matter.

Does anyone want to bet against me that they stuff the Jags run game and make Bortles beat them? I give the Jags even odds to hit double digits.

 

[CATCH17]

You gotta stop the other QB, too.

You have to have a special unit to do it with any kind of consistency.

Dallas has the right idea.. Build a solid defense and just score and play keep away.

If you look at all the Super Bowl winners you find different formulas that got it done. In all decades. There isn't one way to do it it's just that fans try to claim the current way is the only way.

Great defenses don't always have low scoring games. Sometimes it's a shoot out and Pittsburgh has a ton of weapons on offense

The one thing that is consistent though is good coaching...... Which we don't have, hence the reason we fail time after time

They don't suck when it counts.

The key to winning in the NFL is to have more points than the opponent. The Patriots get that.

Defense always comes around come playoff time

Steelers have no such vaunted defense this year.
