Biggest conern about the NE game

Not even a 30 point lead at the half is safe against Tom Brady. We MUST maintain an attacking approach all game long or we will lose...
 
I share the same concern. I'm hoping we can start out fast, but the trick is maintaining that momentum and sealing it shut in the end. When the Patriots take the field this Sunday, there are no real superstars on that team besides Tom Brady; they are still talented and well coached, and that makes them dangerous every Sunday. Our Fins will have to play a complete game. I like our chances, we're at home in December, and our offense is playing it's best football right now.

It will come down to our coaches bringing their "A" game. Instead of our coaches responding on the fly to the Patriots ever-changing schemes, I'm hoping we flip the script, and make the Patriots coaches adjust to our schemes. Keeping them off-balance the entire game.

You know what I love to see, it ranks up there with beating the Jets. I love watching Belichick respond to the media after a loss, the kind of loss that he has no answers for. He is such a sarcastic son of a *****. Here's to watching another episode of that after this Sunday :brewskis:
So right on Belichik after a loss - he's the sorest loser I've ever seen. The reporters are afraid to ask him anything - you see when they lost to Carolina? Eerie silence in the room. And he had the nerve to complain about the non-call on Keuchly. He's such a douche. I hope he's remembered for choking after an 18-0 season - and losing the SB to a 10-6 wild card team. I don't care how many games he wins - that is the blemish of all blemishes IMO.
 
Going into this game I was excited about our pass front four when they put Wake, Odrick, OV, and Jordan on the line then have Jordan drop off on a TE. Now, with Gronk out, I don't see them dropping Jordan off but instead rushing him too. Good.

I Coyle keeps the gas down on the DL and gets on top of Brady we have a serious shot of coming out of this with the W
 
My biggest concern is that in Tanny's career he is 0-3 against Brady and co.

Biggest concern 1a - we haven't won versus New England since 12/06/2009.

That's 7 straight losses since our last victory over the Pats.

Exactly. And we tend to go a bit conservative when we have a lead late. The 2002 (or was it 2003?) game (where Ricky Williams had like 200 yards on 20 carries) - last game of the year - where we dominated for 57 minutes, then choked up a TD and two FGs in the final 3 minutes to lose the division and a PO bid still sticks in my craw...
 
Vernon and Wake are going to win us this game. Brady will not stay upright. Also if we can exploit New England's inability to hold onto the ball with their running game we could really put a hurting on the Pats.
 
I am sure that will be the reason you lose if you lose:lol:

Hey Junc, I gotta bust ya balls a little. How about that victory against the Steelers; and what do you know, it happen the following week after beating your Jets? You can no longer say, beating the Jets is our "Super Bowl." And based on that theory, could it be a changing of the guard where your team is no longer relevant to us, and having no effect on the ensuing games after playing Jets? I would say so. What do you think :chuckle:

Oh yeah, I watched that conference after they lost to the Panthers. The reporters seemed intimidated by him, maybe reporters should report bullying against Belichick to the NFL :lol: .
 
Make sure the special teams players are instructed not to touch the ball on the dribble forward onside kick until it has traveled the necessary 10 yards.

I have a gut feeling Belichick will try it, and not just because the situation will dictate it.

The other thing is that you have to have a completely different defensive game plan for the second half, as they WILL adjust to what we're doing defensively in the first half.

first win post jets since 2006.

You guys are growing into a team I feared you could become, if the QB would get his act together you could be really dangerous.
 
I thought that was a bad call as the back no back no calls were in your favor on Pitt's last real drive but NE still would have had a minute to score and they would have.

yah, okay buddy

and Geno Smith is a franchise QB

:lol:
