Top 5 Defenses?????

[Clipse]

Either the Patriots defense isn't a top 5 defense, or Stafford is the greatest QB to play the game. And Shaun Hill is the 2nd best. And Drew Staunton is maybe the 5th best.

the Patriots were actually 8th in points allowed; the Phins were 12th I believe. i nseveral games (Cincy, Pitt, second Jets game), the opposing offenses racked up a ton of yardage because of how far behind they fell resulting in the Pats playing more prevent defense.

I'm not about to declare NE an elite defense, but there is a lot to like about it going into this season. The secondary is better with Bodden back, the dline looks much better even without Haynesworth and by adopting a more attacking 4-3 approach and moving Mayo to weakside OLB the overall pass rush looks to be better. A lot of it hinges on the development on the young players, but so far they've all been having good camps.

That's cause your offense always has the ball genius. You were also ranked 8th in Yards per game allowed Miami was 26th. In this stat, higher is worse.

I'm interested to see how Wake, Burnett and Dansby play this year. They will determine if we're going to be very good or scary good.

Ok ESPN and NFLN we get the point, just hand the trophy to New England already.

Wow... 3 of the top 5 defenses in one division lol.

Are the Browns that much improved?

I think you need to do better research on your critiques, this was already fixed and covered on the previous page.

it wasnt a critique it was a fact u were wrong on, i did not read farther to see someone else had corrected u, u could also go back and edit your post

When did they sign Pat Willis? The best MLB in the game is quite a comment.. A great Corner to build on what does that even mean?... Dlocz i used to understand you....

I said they had the best MLB in the game , a good defensive line depth and a great corner to build from. I will admit i wasnt remembering Willis at the time and will revise to second best ILB in the game
