Some really great footage in this one, from the sidelines and locker room. If I’ve never seen it I’m pretty sure no one else has either.

Some really interesting stuff in here, but the biggest thing revealed to me… it’s ROLE-based defense. Not rule-based.

Ernie Adams: The man behind the man in New England
In case anyone is unfamiliar with Ernie Adams of the Patriots please please please check out this link. If you thought BB was the only genius in New England you were wrong.
I also think I might be the only person in the world to have his autograph.
Um, I can think of at least a couple more of those Pats stats that should be highlighted yellow guys.

New Yorker: Reality check for Jets fans
New Yorker: Reality check for Jets fans
Though called the New Yorker, it’s clear that they see the writing on the wall, even if it’s painful for a New Yorker.
This is pretty simple. The Patriots are one of the two or three best teams of the last decade. They dismantled the Jets less than two months ago. Before that game, their offense was far superior to that of the Jets; since that game, they’ve been better than New York on both offense and defense. They’ve had single-game DVOA above 40 percent in eight straight games. During that same period, only one team had as many as four games with DVOA above 40 percent (Tampa Bay, surprisingly). The Jets were one of the top ten teams in the NFL this year, yet they have had only four games above 40 percent all season.
There are ways for the Jets to win – a couple big special teams plays, or perhaps the Patriots’ defensive improvements turn out to be a mirage. Maybe the Patriots wake up on the same wrong side of the bed that they woke up on for their Week 9 game with Cleveland. But most likely, they will move on to host Pittsburgh or Baltimore in the AFC Championship.
