It's been abundantly clear that the communication issues have been significantly lessened in Gilmore's absence, so I'm not sure why anyone would give a sarcastic response to libra for his post.
"Abundantly" in what way?
Gilmore's last game: the Patriots were facing the second ranked offense (yards per game) and 10th ranked in scoring.
Gilmore's first game out: the Patriots were facing the 21st ranked offense (yards per game) and 20th in scoring.
Total net passing yards allowed Tampa: 319
Total net passing yards allowed Jets: 334
While the above proves little, it does suggest that it is not abundantly clear communication or anything else was fixed with Gilmore removed from the mix. The better performance again ATL may also be explained by a natural progression of practice, film review, seasoning, better game planning.
Tampa is demonstrably more potent on offense yet we were less successful than the Jets who are considerably less potent on offense. Why is this single game circumstantial evidence dismissed while the single ATL game is abundant proof?
So I'd repeat what I've said ad nauseum in multiple posts: 4 games exist of Gilmore on video. Where is the film, and stats/metrics, that quantify Gilmore being a communication/general problem on pass defense? I'll buy into Gilmore being the problem, however, how about some data to back it up (of which I have seen posted of PF one play broken down where Gilmore may have blew his assignment)?
