By the brutal numbers: Breaking down the Patriots secondary 12.13.11 at 1:15 am ET
By

Rodney Harrison said on Sunday night that the 2011 Patriots feature the worst secondary he’s seen in the last decade. With the team on pace to shatter the record for most passing yards allowed in a season (the Pats project to permit 400 more passing yards than the current standard-bearers for futility in the pass defense, the 1995 Falcons), the numbers tell a woeful tale about the work being done by the Pats’ pass defense.

A statistical breakdown of the Patriots’ pass defenses of the last decade is below. For more on the subject, check out today’s column from Chris Price.

    WHAT PASS DEFENSE! YOU MUST BE JOKING?

    I’d like to see another stat…completions (in total and as a percentage of attempts) on 3rd and 10+ yards. Few things are more frustrating than watching a drive with 3rd and 10+ yards converted multiple times. Make a friggin play for heaven’s sake.
