The Patriots Are Back, the Chargers Are Done, and More Week 4 Story Lines

KapadiaI'm concerned. And the analysis here is simple.

Kapadiatheir defense is a complete dumpster fire and there doesn't appear to be a way out. I mean, I don't know what other way to say it. I could bore you with all the statistics. They all start with, they are 32nd in, and then I could give you like 12 different categories for the Detroit Lions.

KapadiaThis is the worst defense in the NFL. And I don't think Brian Branch potentially returning from an Achilles will be enough to save them. It could help them, but I don't think it's going to be enough to save them. So I think their options are get aggressive in the trade market. Sounds like they at least were making calls about Joey Porter Jr.

KapadiaTom can tell us about that. Come up with some type of brilliant schematic shift, which I don't know, can you do that in the middle of the season? That sounds kind of tough. Or you risk being some version of last year's Bengals or last year's Cowboys. That's where I'm at with this team because I think they're still going to win games, easy schedule, good offense.

KapadiaBut like I said earlier, when a team doesn't complete a pass against them, it feels like a miracle. They're not good at anything defensively, and I'm worried.

KapadiaI was looking

Gilup their defense because it has been horrendous, to put it politely. It's been very bad. So they've allowed 423 yards per game. The next closest is the Colts at 392. Usually when you're looking at yards per game, points per game, it's like one or two, 0.8 difference from one to the other.
