Tedy Bruschi’s defensive index is back – ESPN Boston
The obvious thing standing out in this ranking, and I’m actually pleasantly surprised to see New England at 8, is their 25th ranked third down percentage. Despite the problems against the run game it’s third down that needs the improvement and I look to Dominique Easley to start doing a better job to help the pass rush. He’s the DPR now, he has to start causing some problems.
