Not many Hernando posts around here but this one is well worth it. Great read from Nick Underhill at Masslive.com.

Breaking Down Vince Wilfork’s Impact on the New England Patriots Defense | Oliver Thomas
Great stuff from Oliver Thomas on the MVP of the Pats defense. Hope they got him some help this season because he’s not going to be playing that this level forever.
(In light of recent events, you’d have to think it’ll be a more defensive focused season, at least more so than years past) That being said, who do you think will have the best season of the LBs?
Shhhh! No one is supposed to bring up the fact that the defense returned every major impact player (depending on how you grade Kyle Love and Brandon Deaderick, I gave them an “upgradeable” status earlier this offseason) and added two solid vets in Kelly and Wilson.
As I wrote in my B/R piece today, the Pats have had two main problems: defending the middle of the field against the pass, and having the offense go cold in the playoffs. That’s really it. People can talk about the pass rush, the lack of a deep threat, etc., but it’s really just that simple. So, I think they have definitely taken steps to address the problem on defense with Kelly (better interior disruption from the base defense) and Wilson (should provide impact in middle of field), along with the development of the others.
As for the linebackers I think this is Dont’a Hightower’s year to break out. Mayo had the best season of his career last year, he’ll need to really elevate his pass defense if he wants to improve on that.
Friday Patriots Q&A
Let’s try to keep this Hernandez-light people, I know nothing more than you do and I refuse to join the speculation train until charges are brought or he’s cleared.
What else is on your minds? We’re just 34 days away from the start of training camp!
