Hali IS NOT special. I'm really ****ing sick of people proclaiming him to be ANYTHING other than average at best. I know this will bring out the wrath of TheGuardian and Senseless****ingChiefsFan, but the bottom line is that the guy is NOTHING special.
And you're missing the part about NE having a monster secondary. While their outside linebackers weren't beasts on the scale of Abraham, Porter or Harrison, they were very solid, consistent players.
The Chiefs need to fill ALL four linebacking spots, both safety spots AND their NT position to even begin to be compared to the Patriots defense.
And even then, the Patriots weren't in the same league as other 3-4 defenses such as Baltimore or Pittsburgh. That's another level entirely.
