Do you remember the last time the New England Patriots gave up a touchdown? It was the fourth quarter of the AFC Championship Game against the Kansas City Chiefs, a contest New England ultimately won in overtime. Since then, the team’s defense has played eight quarters of football against some of the best competition in the NFL — the Los Angeles Rams in Super Bowl 53, the Pittsburgh Steelers on Sunday night.
Along the way, the unit surrendered a grand total of two field goals. Needless to say that it has been playing some pretty good football lately, with the 33-3 blowout win against the Steelers just more proof that it can be named among the best defenses in all of football.
