Patriots Defense Playing Tremendously, but Garbage Time Skews the Stats
The Patriots are allowing just 19 points per game, currently tied for eighth in the NFL. But with the help of their stellar offense, the Patriots put away the games so early and bury opposing teams so quickly that their non-garbage time defense ranks #1 in the entire league. Think of this way: nearly 50% of the Patriots points allowed have come after they've clinched 99% chance of victory.
