FOXBOROUGH https://www.thepackersfanshop.com/Montravius-Adams-Jersey , Mass. (AP) r12; It didnr17;t take Bill Belichick long to recall what Aaron Rodgers did against his defense the previous time that the Packers faced the Patriots.r0;He killed us,r1; Belichick said of New Englandr17;s 26-21 loss in Green Bay in 2014. r0;He does everything well. r30; Her17;s one of the great quarterbacks in the National Football League. No question about it.r1;Four years later, not a lot has changed about Belichickr17;s affinity for Rodgers or his abilities as the Patriots prepare to host Green Bay on Sunday night.It presents the latest challenge for a New England defense that has had issues slowing teams down this season, particularly in the secondary.Following the departure of defensive coordinator Matt Patricia to the Lions, the Patriots have struggled with consistency in 2018.They currently rank in the bottom half of the NFL in both total defense (25th, 383 yards per game) and passing yards allowed (22nd, 227 yards per game).Stopping the pass was a major issue in both of New Englandr17;s losses.Blake Bortles threw for 376 yards and four touchdowns, including a 61-yarder to Dede Westbrook in the fourth quarter of the Jaguarsr16; 31-20 win in Week 2.A week later, Matt Stafford had just nine incompletions and passed for 262 yards and two touchdowns in leading the Lions to a 26-10 victory.And though the Patriots were able to pull out a 43-40 win against the Chiefs, it came despite Patrick Mahomes lighting up the defense for 352 yards and four TDs through the air.The similarities in all those games were the ability of the three quarterbacks to create time and space with their legs.Rodgers isnr17;t expected to be as mobile as he continues to be slowed by the knee injury he sustained in Green Bayr17;s season opener. But her17;s still managed to complete 61 percent of his passes while throwing for 13 touchdowns and just one interception.Patriots cornerback Jason McCourty was with the Titans in 2016 when they beat the Packers 47-25 in a game that saw Rodgers throw two interceptions.But he said he isnr17;t counting on getting anything less than Rodgersr17; best this time around.r0;I really donr17;t want to compare anybody to Aaron Rodgers, so I wonr17;t go that route Jake Ryan Jersey ,r1; McCourty said. r0;At the end of the day, however many football games you can play in preparation to help you get ready for this guy. r30; Her17;ll probably be the best quarterback we play against this year for sure.r1;Likewise, Rodgers is expecting to see various defensive looks from Belichick to get him off his game.r0;Bill is a phenomenal coach and her17;s always going to have his guys ready to play,r1; he said. r0;They do a number of different things r12; they donr17;t just always major in one specific thing. Theyr17;re going to try to combat what you do best and take it away and get you off schedule and lock down the guys they want to take away and make you beat them with your third and fourth options.r1;New Englandr17;s secondary has shown improvement during its five-game win streak. Part of the reason is the support it has gotten up front from the defensive line.A week after giving up 31 points to Chicago, the Patriots responded by limiting Buffalor17;s offense to just six points on a day in which Tom Brady and his offense struggled.The defense had three sacks, including two from linebacker Kyle Van Noy. But the play of the game came from safety Devin McCourty, who picked off Buffalo quarterback Derek Anderson late in the fourth quarter and returned it 84 yards for a touchdown.New Englandr17;s 11 interceptions are tied for the second-most in the league through eight weeks.Defensive end Trey Flowers said helping the secondary find similar success against Rodgers will hinge on their ability to speed up Rodgers in the pocket.r0;We definitely will need to try to contain him as much as we can,r1; Flowers said. r0;You flush him out the pocket and her17;s still good. Keep him in the pocket and her17;s still great. We just gotta continue to push and get him rattled up a little bit and do the best we can.r1; The Green Bay Packers wrapped up their 2019 NFL draft class by selecting TCU linebacker Ty Summers with the 12th pick of the seventh round (No. 226 overall).Packers NFL Draft CoverageGreen Bay Packers 2019 NFL Draft gradesGreen Bay Packers 2019 NFL draft capsulesPackers close out 2019 draft, select LB Summers in seventh roundPackers add CB Hollman, RB Williams in sixth roundPackers address defense in fifth round, select DL Kingsley KekePackers use third-round pick to select TE Jace SternbergerPackers draft versatile OL Elgton Jenkins in second roundPotential Packers Day 2 picks in 2019 NFL draftPackers trade up Lance Kendricks Color Rush Jersey , draft safety Darnell Savage at No. 21 overallPackers select Rashan Gary with 12th overall pick in 2019 NFL draftAfter spending his first three seasons at defensive end, Summers split time at linebacker and DE last season.
