You are right. They are 32 in pass defense yards in 2023.
They were 7th in pass defense yards last year in 2022 under same HC. And they were 10th pass defense yards in 2021. So........ prisoner of 2023, if you discredit him for his rank this year than you have to credit him for two top 10 pass defense yards on his resume. Correct?
This given up more points in NFL history has an asterisk, they are playing an extra game. So there are many things that have happened that are historical in this 17 game NFL. As far as points allowed over 3 years. What is it over same amount of games. Seems like it's a way to twist a stat. Games to games is more apples to apples. NFL teams on avg score 23pts a game. It's been like that for over a decade. Nobody is realing stopping anybody like they used to. When it was more a run heavy conservative without all these new rules that favor offense. scoring was 18pts game avg. So these most points over 3 years. His team over last season and a half of games is allowed about 23pts a game which is the NFL avg. Not good enough. But not nearly as bad as you believe it to be.
They need to stop 1 drive per game more and then it's a top 10 defense. That need to find that. Not as easy as fans think in the NFL. I am confident they will find it.... because they know that is what needs to happen. They all know it. Making it happen on GameDay is not so easy. Ask Belicheck how life is in NFL without being able to ride Brady's coattails.
