And here is Cosell’s bullet point analysis of the Patriots defense versus the Giants offense.

Spikes again flashed as a downhill run defender, A collision player

Fascinating bullet point observations from Greg Cosell, one of our most respected analysts. You can be sure that there’s no bias in his analysis, and he’s seen as much football as anyone.

When you take all this in I can’t help but feel even more reinforced that this offense needs to add some new dynamics. The book on this current version is out and if you can execute (which good defenses can) it’s fairly straight forward to defend.

I think that the addition of Josh McDaniels is looming even larger now. He will bring in some new elements that will open things up for Gronkowski and Hernandez and Welker.

Patriots a very condensed and restricted passing game, Very little intermediate and downfield passing – They were easy to defend
