I heard that he was hurt but the Steelers hid it.
Time to pump the brakes.

Pittsburgh Ben was hurt before the game even started. The Pats have played a bunch of Patsies and backup QBs.
Pats have allowed 34 points (20 defensively) thru 5 games w/ 11 remaining.Pats have certainly played weak offensive teams so far (with exception of Pitt) but their defense has still been unworldly. I don't think anyone expects them to remain at the current pace but they certainly seem capable of holding just about anyone under 20 points if they play a decent game. and should surpass the numbers of the early 2000 teams. They are extremely cohesive and have athleticism and experience. Been a blast watching the defense this year.
The voices again...I heard that he was hurt but the Steelers hid it.
All you can do is play who is on your schedulePlaying amazing so far even if the competition has been crap. In previous years, we made plenty of crappy QBs look like pro bowlers so this D is definitely crazy good!

Lie.
with a 1/11 3rd down conversion performance today our d Is now 8/63 for the season.
That is a ridiculous almost impossible stat.
We don’t have today stats yet but they will only improve the numbers.
Before today on 3rd down our d was
12 rushes for 15 yards 2/15 success
14/31 passing for 188 4 ints and 9 Sacks
5 conversions out of 40 attempts.
5 conversions 4 ints.
14 completions, 9 of which were short of the yards ended and 9 sacks
I have never in my lifetime seem a defense at any level own 3rd down like that.
It is, but to state the obvious, it’s also an average. So if they, say, shut out the Dolphins they can give up 23 points to another team and still be under that.Pats have allowed 34 points (20 defensively) thru 5 games w/ 11 remaining.
To better the 2000 Ravens' record of 10.8 ppg allowed, for the remainder of the season they will need to stay under 11.91 ppg.
That is a tall order
I don't care who the competition is...it is ridiculous... Won't be shocked to see this the entire season.. they're that stackedwith a 1/11 3rd down conversion performance today our d Is now 8/63 for the season.

Agreed. Though Ben wasn't hurt in the opener.
Defense will need to do well against explosive offenses like KC & Philly to get recognition from the football world ( Not that their opinion matters).
