Description
It's easy to forget in the modern NFL, but football is actually a game of three phases. While the New England Patriots offense is not playing to the lofty standards its established over the past two decades, making it easy to say that the Patriots aren't the same team as they once were, the defense is playing extraordinarily well- as one of the five best defenses in NFL history through 11 games- and so is the special teams unit.
Out with Tom Brady and Jakobi Meyers and Sony Michel, and their tepid production, and in with a defense that is allowing points at a rate not seen since the 1970s, and in with a special teams unit led by Matthew Slater that is just as likely to put points on the board as any Patriots tight end.
The Patriots beat the Dallas Cowboys in an ugly, sloppy, rainy game in a fashion reminiscent of the 2003 Patriots team. So it goes.
