Steve Belichick: Matt Judon is making big plays 'whether they show up on the stat sheet or not'

Through the first 14 games of the season, New England Patriots edge Matt Judon was one of the most dominant players on the team’s defense — and, perhaps, in the NFL. He logged 12.5 sacks and 59 pressures during those first 13 games. New England jumped out to a 9-4 start.

But the Patriots have slipped — and Judon with them. New England lost three of their last four games and Judon logged zero snaps and just four pressures during that span.

Patriots defensive play-caller and outside linebackers coach Steve Belichick was asked whether he thinks the statistics line up with what he’s seeing on game film.
