Reiss mentions one of our own (Oswlek) in look back at Defensive Forecasts

Looking back at our defensive forecast - New England Patriots Blog - ESPN Boston

Quote:

The 2012 Patriots defense improved in every area, surrendering an average of 373 yards per game (38 yards per game better) and 20.7 points (down from 21.4 in 2011). The defense embodied the “bend but don’t break” reputation it established in the early-to-mid-2000s: It ranked 25th in the NFL in yards allowed per game but was ninth in points given up.

Both Mike Reiss and Field Yates had the Patriots in the top 10 in points allowed, though Mike Rodak was closest in predicted yards per game (off by just 5 yards per).

And reader “Oswlek” nearly nailed the defensive projection, predicting the team to rank 23rd in yards allowed per game and 11th in points given up.

If a mod could fix the thread title ("one of our own"), it would be much appreciated. :bricks:

Oswlek is a regular over on the ESPN boards, he usually responds to Reiss' comments on certain issues.

As noted, he is also a member of patsfans.com too, although I haven't seen him around here lately.
