Defense win Championships

[lancerman]

Good teams win championships. There's been plenty of SB winners where the offense was better than the defense. Really it's the team with the least weak links

This is proven yet again.
It does not mean you don't need a consistent & potent offense. But, a better way to say it is:
LoS wins championships.
The '07 Giants beat our all-time great offense with a superior DL
The Chiefs were beat in '20 & '24 by excellent DL's that overpowered their OL

An opportunistic, run-capable offense AND a dominant front 7 on D is a championship blueprint.

Therefore - Pats need to rebuild the OL & DL (long way to an obvious answer)
FA is first, get the best you can. Then draft accordingly to fit the pieces who can start now.
