I post this as a reminder to those who would have cut Tully and kept Redd.

Don't get me wrong, I loved Larry Izzo. But TBC 2009 at vet minimum is a HUGE upgrade over Larry Izzo 2008 well-paid.
The Pats really improved with that switch.
Very well put - framing it exactly that way does indeed say it all.
We all loved Izzo, but the man coudl not help on "D" at all. TBC will get his sacks and hopefully not get run over too often.
I think our biggest worry with our LB's as a group is pass coverage.
TBC was always a good pass rusher. I though he was a steal as a 7th round pick. His issues seem to be against the run, but I think we would do well to focus more on pass rush than run D. Not that we shouldn't be better in both, but of the two, pass rush is more important.At least one of our OLB's looked good! Tully continues to be one of the best special teamers around.

Tully was a DE, not an OLB.
(Sorry, couldn't resist. )
I think it is semantics...But IMO just because a player puts his hand down doesn't make him a DE. Just use AD as an example he is certainly one of nickle and dime rushers and you will see his hand down plenty but he is definitely a LB. In Tullys case he ideally wont do much other than rush so he might not pick the hand up much but if injuries started mounting at OLB I bet he would pick up the hand conversely if injuries started at DE I can't picture him keeping his hand down and replacing DE on rushing downs.
i have never been a fan of Tully's but last night he definitely looked skinnier and more fit than the last time he was hear. Did anyone else think he looked less pudgey than before?
