What Would You Do If YOU Were Playing Against the Pats on Saturday?

It's a little fuzzy, but for some reason I remember them only rushing something like 2 guys and having the rest just sit in zones to cover crossing routes

 

Awesome thread solid.

I would throw on first and second down more......Like you said, loosen it up...not too much, but enough to keep those guys off balance.

I like the idea about getting the ball out to Arian in the flat /screens and getting Ben more reps....getting both on the field together would be nice. the Texans also need to find a way to work around the problems with the right side of the line..Maybe a reverse at a key point early to change the flow, make NE think twice.

I'd stay away from so many fake punts, onside kicks, etc. as we have a defense that is going to show big this weekend IMO. I think JJo is ready and Kareem has improved dramatically. We need to cover up some deficiencies at LB, so stunts and blitzes would be mixed in, but not overdone, because, again I think we're going to see a dominant defense come this weekend.

Brady has a high release, so we need to be there in the gut to make him pay when he does get it away.

And Kubes needs to coach with confidence...As has been said, none of this coaching not to lose crap. Show faith in our D....4th and 1 under the right circumstances, you go...no shriveled nuts syndrome.

Honestly, I think we're going to come out strong, easily cover the spread while winning the game outright. It's tough to beat a team twice in the same season. Those losses to the Packers and Patriots weren't totally unexpected by a long shot. ...and should benefit us now.Notice how that line isn't jumping from where it is this time. We should be ready and NE is ripe to be taken down.

If I was a betting man, I'd take the Texans and the points with 80-85% of my play and the rest on the moneyline.

We're going to win this game....and go see Denver next week.

 

If i were 6'6 300 pounds i'd leave the game and kick the asses of everyone who's ever ***** with me.
