Days removed from the New England Patriots' 33-14 loss to the Baltimore Ravens where they allowed 234 rushing yards and four touchdown runs, defensive coordinator Dean Pees has been fired.

According to the Providence Journal, Pees was dismissed today.

Pees had some health problems this season and had to go to the hospital for shortness of breath following a loss to the Houston Texans.

Pees had been with the Patriots for six seasons, serving as defensive boss for four of them.

Linebackers coach Matt Patricia is widely expected to be elevated to defensive coordinator.
