Looking back at the Patriots’ playoff loss to the Jets, one of the surprising developments that was overshadowed by the loss was at outside linebacker, where Eric Moore – who had signed with the team Dec. 3 – started over Tully Banta-Cain and Jermaine Cunningham. In the most important game of the season, what does it say that the coaching staff felt the best fit was with a player who had joined the team just six weeks ago?

Cunningham was battling a nagging injury, so I really only think what this tells us is that Moore > Banta-Cain as run stopper. TBC could be on the outs in 2011.
