Hey Paul, 

The shocking thing to me is how bad the Pats defense has been. Belichick is a master mind as a defensive coach, so to watch them struggle on that side of the ball is mind blowing. To me it all about communication on defense. It seems like there are too many blown assignments, which suggests the guys aren't really talking the situation through. Also some lots of unPatriotlike penalties on that side of the ball. 

The good thing is there are 3-2, and Belichick has time to get those things cleaned up before the playoffs
