Out of the backfield....I don't trust Ellerbe or Wheeler to do it.
 
Wasn't it Blount that gashed us last time?
 
Time for the LB's to man up.

Maybe Dion Jordan could be used in some capacity here.

Whatever it is, the Pats will have a new wrinkle.
 
He's an incredibly hard player to cover. He attacks in so many different ways. No one has figured him out this season yet.

IMO dion has to earm his draft status here to keep vereen under control.

This is then kind of Player dion was brought here for, hopefully he's ready to make that kind of impact.
 
Look for R. Jones to be matched up against Vereen for much of the game. If not it will be a long day for Wheeler and Ellerbe.
 
Gunna have to play a lot of nickle imo. Match up Wilson with him. With Gronk out, i think we can risk having one less LB out there. Hopefully Koa plays more because we are going to need somebody in there to stop the run..
 
That is actually his father's cousin.
That's right - his dad actually played pro football for BC Lions of the CFL - I remember watching him. Come to think of it, he was actually pretty small and easy to bring down. But elusive. In other words, just like his son.

Jimmy Wilson can probably do a decent job, he can get physical with vereen early which is really the best way to stop him. I really likes Dions length against him though, dion can press him and cover space, has the speed to close the distance and force Brady to make thoughts throws.

Will be something to keep an eye on for sure.
