The 2017 Champs (Pats) ranked #1 in points allowed, 14th in takeaways and 8th in yards allowed. Defense ultimately matters most at this level.
LMAO you can draft all defense for the next two years and still not get there. You can spend all the cash in FA also. No defense is built in two or three years.
Maybe after Drew retires then we are in a totally different situation.
Offense is what we must not destroy. That is what got us into this mess in the first place right after the super bowl. Took a few years of raping the offense and some bad DCs to put us back at the bottom of the NFC South.
