By over all points and efficiency, this was the 2nd worst defensive performance of the Bellichick era. They were awful.

Well, it's not like the Eagles won it on strong D either. Both sucked, one slightly more. I'm just saying that any D is going to struggle when they face situations that don't allign with the laws of averages. Folles, catching a TD pass? Ok. good luck stopping that psycho play. Running it on 3rd and 6? Who does that?
