If our defense is going to get faster, he should be next in line to get replaced. He's relying on his instincts and football smarts, but he is no longer a physical presence. He gets run over occasionally.
Either he or the CB position would be the weakest link. Hopefully some of the new CB's step up in the next few weeks.
If you see it. And I see it. You'd think the coaching staff would see it.
I posted a few days ago, that I thought Teddy was slow to the ball. (last year!) Trying to make arm tackles etc... He's a HUGE fan favorite still. Also he has the persona that the team & NFL likes to promote. He may be an average LB at best, at this point. Mentally he's sharp. He'd have to become a liabilty in situational downs for the team to have the retirement talk with him. To his benifit, his price is right. Honestly, I was hoping he would've retired in the off season. He has a great legacy with the Pats.

The Weak Link was the absence of Seymour and the lack of a quality speed rusher. After Colvin went down, we lost a crucial element on defense. Having to run safety and cornerback blitzes because of lack of front seven QB pressure ain't getting it done.
