Good concept for an article, but it seemed really redundant. Our first picks were used to shore up our run defense; yeah, I picked up on that.

And in 2001, the New England Patriots were 6th in the league in offensive points scored per game.

I think Rudy is better than you are giving him credit for, but in all, Dane is spot on here. This was considered a very good/great year for drafting offensive linemen, but we didn't, other than a stretch for a MU tackle and an undersized Duke dude in free agency. (And I still don't get why we didn't pick up more guys in free agency to compete on the offensive line. If I was GM, my first call would have been to BYU to talk to the three senior offensive lineman that were available right after the draft. Also, we seemed to miss the boat on some quality linebackers in free agency, although the guy from Maine looks like a player.)

Clay's getting better. That one didn't make me wince even once. I knew Jackson was the best need available at three with no possible trade down, but I understand the Magee pickup more than I did before.

Kudos to Clay!

Good article. I agree that stopping the run is going to open the passrush.

I gotta' say; the idea of DJ, Vrabel, and Pollard getting after some guys out of coverage does in fact give me wood.

I don't know much about Vrabel, but I'd love to see DJ and Pollard start popping and playing up to their promise.

Best article by Clay in a long time.

It forces the offense to play catch-up against a well-rested defense.

There’s really nothing more demoralizing to a football team than bad run defense. Via the play-action pass, it effectively turns any defense into a complete laughingstock. It forces the offense to play catch-up against a well-rested defense.

claythan is a vag, sending me private messages claiming that this makes sense..


can anyone not spot the error here, since claythan is too stupid to see it?

Why don't you post your problem with the sentence.

I don't have a problem with the hyphen. It makes the sentence easier to read, IMO.

They (two hyphens) don't belong, which is the problem I'm assuming that TC is talking about.

And really, how does it make it easier to read?

Catch-up is perfectly acceptable and well-rested defense is correct.

Pioli and Bellicheks first year in NE they only won 5 games.

Exactly.

We didn't draft 7 offensive linemen so it's the end of the world.

In Belichek's first year in New England, the offense actually DROPPED from 20th to 25th in scoring and from 18th to 22nd in yards.

They took Matt Light in the 2001 draft and he started at LT from Day 1. Coincidentally, they won a Super Bowl in his rookie season.
