As much as people talk about how well athletes play in their second year removed from ACL surgery, that isn't the best thing to like about the presence of cornerback Darrelle Revis with the New England Patriots. It's the overall timing of this move that should make fans in that area giddy.
On one hand, you have an elite pass defender eager to prove he's still as good as any in the league. On the other, you have Bill Belichick going back to his roots with the belief that better defense can lead to more championships.
Anybody who has watched the Patriots over the last few years understands how Belichick has approached this team. It mainly has been about the brilliance of quarterback Tom Brady, a future Hall of Famer who has guided an offense that has been as productive as any in the NFL.
