this team wins. 28th in the league with an offense that stays on the field? That's horrible. Let him go to Arizona. He's going there anyway.

The New England Defense finished 28th in the league this year. Guess which other Blue, Red and White team finished 29th? Actually the stats are eerily similar between the 2017 Giants and the 2017 Pats.

Alright so maybe 2017 was an aberration. Maybe some key guys got hurt or something. Lets look to 2016. Pats were ranked....28th again in total defense and 29th in points per game with 27 and change.

What about 2015? They were better right? YES! They finished 26th in 2015. They also gave up 29 points per game.

2014? 21st in the league again giving up 29+ ppg.

2013? 24th in the league - 27+ ppg again

2012 (his first year?) - 32nd - that's right- WORST in the league- 35 ppg. THIRTY FIVE POINTS PER GAME.

Baasically- what I am telling you is that New England's defense with Matt Patricia at the helm has been statistically probably the 3rd or 4th worst defensive unit in the league. This WITH supposedly with one of the greatest defensive mind in NFL history looking over his shoulder.

How can you rationally argue that this is a "must have guy" based on his results, unless you just think anyone from the Pats staff is automatically fantastic, and if that was the case just hire Romeo Crenell. At least the NE defense was good back then when he was running the show.





Great post. I didn't realize they were statistically close (bad) as the Giants.



Christ, can those numbers really be right?

35 points a game in during on season?



I just looked up 2012. Gave up 331 points.

That's about 20.


You need to go in a different direction....ain't working.

You were looking at points scored by NE lol

Not sure where those numbers are from.

2017 they were 5th in points allowed:


2016 they were 1st in points allowed:


2015 they were 10th in points allowed:


2014 they were 8th in points allowed:


This is all with average talent at best. To me, that's a great coaching job.

when I had work done on my house, I wanted it done right. So I hired an expert.

Supposedly Tisch was in on the hiring of Gettleman. Now that he hired the expert, he's sitting back and letting G do the job. Tisch has never really gotten all that involved in running the football side of things. He tends to come out of the woodwork when things are going horribly wrong and he growls enough to let his partner know shit has to change. Otherwise, he cashes his dividend checks and lets others run the show. I wish Mara were a bit more like that.

We already proved how inaccurate this statement was in a previous thread. Keep whining and bitching like a toddler about other people's opinions...I'm done engaging with the troll.

Here's a fun one for you Josh, on the Dalvin Tomlinson draft pick thread:
Quote:
This is an
Josh in the City : 4/28/2017 8:56 pm : link
absolutely horrendous pick. Shouldn't have been drafted until tomorrow.
New York Giants 2nd Round Pick: DT Dalvin Tomlinson

Just for context, here's what Sy had to say about his rookie year:
Quote:
Rookie Dalvin Tomlinson had his second best game of the season, totaling 4 tackles and 2 pressures. He had arguably the best year of all the rookie DTs in the league and will be a reliable starter on this team for a long time, no matter the scheme.


But it's not always just draft picks that you get irrational about. Sometimes it's a coach. And sometimes your solution is a coworker of your current flavor of the week:

"We Should Hire Josh McDaniels"
I don't envy the GM's who have to make the calls  
arniefez : 1/5/2018 4:00 pm : link
on head coaches and QB's. It's an art not a science. There is no projection formula going from a coordinator to a head coach. It a totally different skill set. I'm not sure previous successful or failed experience as a HC is a indicator either because there are so many variables. There are so few people who are good NFL coaches. Choosing a minor league QB moving to the NFL is just as difficult both the on field and off field variables are so different in every case. I hope Gettleman gets them right if he really has the authority to make the choices.

My vote are McDaniels & Rosen. But my record is way below the Mendoza line. So hopefully it's neither.

Very interesting stats, I didn't anticipate an annual contender with multiple rings to rank that low. But, I wouldn't say they've won championships in spite of the defense either.

In his favor, NE defenses get better as the year goes on. That shows good coaching. But I'm sure someone mentioned, the one constant theme in their defenses if Belecheck. If Patricia wants to come to NY, I'm sure he'd make a good coordinator. Second, injuries aside, the Giants have the makings of a fairly good defense. Their offense needs a major overhaul. And, there's are good odds, Eli's replacement is coming in this draft. But, even it turns out to be Webb, and we're going the coordinator route I'm guessing that an OC has a better chance than a DC.

But, to my main point. The job of a coordinator or just assistant coach is so different than a head coach that it saying that so and so was a great coordinator tells you very little about how good a coach they would be. Bill Arnsberger, way back when, was a great DC under Don Shula. I think he was the DC on the undefeated Dolphin team; if not, he was the architect of great defenses. He was a horrible head coach; he was not a leader. And speaking of bad leaders, McAdoo had great credentials as an assistant coach. How did that work out? Does anybody here know anything about Patricia's leadership skills, organizational skills, motivational skills, media skills, etc? I don't know how you can. Maybe he's going to blow the GM out of the water with the interview but I'm guessing Patricia has no chance of getting the job.

Great post. I didn't realize they were statistically close (bad) as the Giants.


Those numbers are NOT correct. New England has consistently been near the top of the list for LEAST points given up. I have no idea where your numbers come from. The rankings (28th this year, etc..) you listed I believe are for yards per game allowed. While considered poor, yards given up are not a consideration in the Pats defensive scheme. They're willing to give up 500 yards a game if they can hold you to 6 points.
Sometimes people need to look back from their screen

This is why I'm so confused when people have snarky comments to make every time he says something. He's practically a silent partner and never does anything to upset the apple cart.
Matt Patricia sounds like a very interesting candidate

But calling him “Matty P” sounds really obnoxious. It’s as if the OP is trying to imply he somehow knows more about him than the rest of us and is trying to claim credit for being “on him” before anyone.

Reminds me of Francesa calling Johnny Bench “John Bench” repeatedly...as if nobody (not even Bench himself) knew him better than Mike

Wow, what a fucking disaster this thread is.

I'm bummed that I'm late to the party.
I'll add my vote for Patricia

although I don't know much about his personality, his results can't be argued with...especially considering the talent he has worked with. He coaches guys up. This team needs that.
