ATLANTA -- The Patriots have brought on some subs defensively on the Falcons' fourth drive. The starting secondary remains.
A look at the lineup:
LDE: Ron Brace
NT: Myron Pryor
RDE: Brandon Deaderick
OLB: Pierre Woods
ILB: Brandon Spikes
ILB: Eric Alexander
OLB: Marques Murrell
CB: Devin McCourty
CB: Darius Butler
S: Brandon Meriweather
S: Patrick Chung
This could be viewed as a tough sign for second-year ILB Tyrone McKenzie, as Alexander has taken the field over him. Last week, rookie free-agent ILB Dane Fletcher played over McKenzie.
