The Pats defense isn't their problem this year (it was blatantly the problem through most of 2007 and didn't step up to the plate when it counted in the SB). Other than Brady, and his timing with his receivers, it's entirely, 100% the o-line just not being very good without Brady thinking for them.
The 2007 Patriots defense was a top 5 league defense.
The unit that failed when it counted, was the offense failing to score a FG with plenty of time on the clock left, all 3 timeouts to use, and needing 40 yards to tie the game.
