This game is a perfect example of our depleted secondary costing us big time. It's been our Achilles heel since Jimmy Smith went down, and it came back and ended our season.
This. We've got the 3 main things we need (QB, OL, Pass Rush) in abundance, but when you really struggle somewhere, that's something Belichick knows how to take advantage of.
Can't believe the short passing game was so effective though. We're usually able to demolish the short pass this year with our LB corps.
So, who are we getting in the draft? Will a playmaking DB like Landon Collins fall to us like someone seems to every year? Should we go with a WR or RB round 1?
