Okay, okay, okay….let’s look on the bright side of the Patriots loss against the Colts. New England’s defense will be much better, next time. No really. The fans, the media, and this week’s cartoon took 4th & 2 as a defining loss, but actually Belichick is very much in transition on defense. (that sneaky, sly fox)These weren’t prideful veteran’s making a last stand. On the field in Indy were mostly young, hungry and fearless second and third year players, even a few rookies. Forty-something fans and media types were crushed by the 35-34 loss, but Belichick’s twenty-something stud defense is already over it, and chomping at the bit. They will devour the Jets next. A win in New Orleans, lead by the defense-in honor of their beleaguered coach-would right the Good Ship Belichick and set up a dream finish to the season for football fans.
