Lombardi was SPOT ON in his analysis of the patriots D at the BEGINNING of the year. He said the Pats D would struggle for the first 8 games but was talented and would improve a lot by the end of the season. Meanwhile, every other analyst predicted doom and gloom because our D allegedly sucked.
This is the team we all expected to see. No, not the team that kicked the Dolphins' butts all over the field in the second half. the team that has played wildly inconsistently but managed to come away with 3 wins in 4 games.
The most common refrain before the start of the season was that this team had a lot of talent but was super young and inexperienced, and would be inconsistent enough to give us heart attacks in the early going. But hopefully they'd pull together enough wins to be positioned for a strong playoff run as they start to mature and gel later in the season.
So far so good, eh?
