Well, that's where we disagree a bit in terms of who to blame. Personally, much like the faults in the secondary or even the YPC given up in the run game (4.22), I don't really care who the blame falls on or how they fix it, but it most certainly needs to be addressed. Blaming the media for discussing the obvious is irrrlevant, because it is something of a story. Both Solder and Belichick have spoken about the substandard play on the OL and the need to improve it.
If your point is that it doesn't all fall on the OL, then I'm fully with you, like I mentioned in my other posts, even though the examples like Brady tripping or being forced to run OOB and counting for sacks don't really tell me much because those situations happen every year and are counted as sacks.
Last year sacks absolutely killed drives. 85% of the time it lead to punt. Teams don't recover from sacks although the Pats had better % of doing so then most.

Mo Wilk is one of the most hot/cold players in the league. Amazing how many plays he just quits.
Adams is the best player on the D and not close.
