Do you agree? 5-1 but with room for improvement. I think his grade isn't far off the mark. We need to see more from this defense but I think it is turning the corner.

Curran: Patriots earn B-plus

The bar has to be set pretty high for 5-1 and a division lead being only a B+. That said, the bar should be high for the Pats, so I'm okay with it. There are a lot of areas where they can and should improve as the season goes on, so a B+ sounds fair, considering that letter grades on this kind of thing are subjectively weighted anyways.

I guess base on expectations, B+ seems about right. Going into the season, we all expected a radically better defense. The defense is improving by leaps and bounds and they were never as bad as people made it out to be, but it isn't what we expected.

My thoughts exactly, except I give them an A- (A for 5-1, minus for room for improvement). To be 5-1 and have so may areas where you know players and units will get better, that's pretty exciting.

I want to like Curran a lot but everytime I watch or see him, I feel like I need to punch him..

Esp on quick slant..

Nothing wrong with that, they don't deserve an A, defense is not getting to QBs and Brady is on pace for a career high in INTs, those need to change before we become an A team.

Don't feed Prentice McCray's ego. It's liable to explode.

Big news, a total doosh gives the Pats a B+.

PATSYLICIOUS

Fair enough. It was good to see this team gut out a win last week. In some ways that can be a more fullfilling win than a 30 point blowout, just to watch the team under pressure and making clutch stops/clutch scores. There will be instances where the offense will be grounded so it's good to see that. Let's just hope the offense is learning from these games because if they find the answers they will be nearly impossible to stop.

I would give them an A-. If the D hadn't improved over the course of the last 4 weeks, I would have given them a B+.
