Patriots Football Outsiders DVOA Update (going back to 2001)
Usually I wait until the fourth game of the season to post any long-term stat perspective but since the bye week comes early this year I’m putting this up now. Remember these numbers are reflective of how three games unfolded and each’s specific gameplan. So the ugly run defense numbers aren’t really quite as horrible as they look.
But clearly the offense picked up almost exactly where they left off last year and gasp, the pass defense has been top-10 so far. Yes against Tyrod Taylor and Blake Bortles but there was a time not so long ago when EVERYONE threw for 300 yards on the Pats.
