New England Patriots’ defense can win championships
New England Patriots’ head coach Bill Belichick is famous for a number of reasons. Bill Belichick, back in the old days, was a defensive mastermind as he worked under Bill Parcells in the New York Giants’ organization. He helped win the New York Giants multiple Super Bowl rings as their defensive coordinator and eventually got a shot at head coaching.

Belichick took what he learned from his time in New York and applied it first to the Cleveland Browns. He never really found his groove with the team. When Belichick got his shot at head coach for the New England Patriots, he took advantage and has never looked back.
The New England Patriots over the years have been known for their outstanding offense but what about their defense? The New England Patriots’ head coach is a defensive minded coach, after all, and the Patriots seem to have much invested in their young defense. Up and coming talents have shown that the New England Patriots’ defense is capable of winning championships.
Multiple standouts including Jamie Collins, Dont’a Hightower, Malcolm Butler, Devin McCourty among others. All are young players with great skill. The New England Patriots second-round pick Cyrus Jones has had an impressive preseason in his time on the field and looks like he might be another steal for the team on defense.
The New England Patriots’ defensive coordinator, Matt Patricia, has done an exceptional job keeping the unit working on all cylinders, from the big guys on the line, to the athletic linebackers and speedy secondary, the team is pretty deep at most defensive positions. People say that defense wins championships. The New England Patriots have the talent on defense to back that statement up.
If Matt Patricia and Bill Belichick can keep their players healthy, then opposing teams are going to have a hell of a time matching up against the Pats’ defense.
