n of the plays makes all the difference.
Players – Gang Green has a pair of safetys (Kerry Rhodes and Jim Leonhard) that are very good blitzers. ILB Bart Scott is excellent coming from any direction. Behind them are cornerbacks they trust in one-on-one situations (Darrell Revis and Lito Sheppard). Not every team has all those elements on their defense.

He was being honest, not malicious.
Safety Kerry Rhodes on the other hand, when asked what he wants to do to the Patriots, said “Not just go out there and try to win, try to embarrass them. Try to make them feel bad when they leave here.” There’s no mistaking it. Tack that on the bulletin board.
