That is the obvious key to winning this game. Keep our D off the field and keep theirs on it. I think we come on attempting a lot of short passes and look for a heavy dose of morris/minor. As the game wears on start taking more shots down the field, if necessary. But the key to beating Jacksonville is no early turnovers, this is a team that does not come out with a lot of flash and if we shut down the run they will have a tough time moving the ball on us.

Shutting down Taylor/ Jones-Drew is the key. Garrard can't do it on his own. The Jags are up and down all year. They like a lot of other teams can't seem to maintain the intensity week in and out. They are a better team than the Bills and should have won on Sunday. Moving the ball is going to be tough though. And their pass rush is nasty. Stroud is a beast for sure. This will be a true test for our OL to see how much they have really improved.
 
I am thinking Sammy will see a lot of passes in the flat to try to keep that pass rush grounded.
 
The key to this game will be stuffing the Jacksonville running game and forcing Garrard to be a pocket passer. We also have to be ready for Garrard to take off with it, he can kill us more with his legs than he can with his arm. If we can take care of those things defensively and take care of the football offensively we should come out of this one with a win. Joey needs to have another efficient game.

That's going to be a huge problem. Gerrard is a very good QB on the run. One thing he has against him is his height. I believe Miami can put hands up and have a few passes knocked down. Unfortunately, Jacksonville has very BIG receivers. Fortunately, for Miami, they've been sucking it up with dropped passes as of late. I believe only one of their big receivers has been consistent this year (#19, I think).

Ernest Wilford is #19 and he's been solid.

Yeah, that's the guy. He's very solid. I hope he doesn't play so solidly during the Miami game! :tongue:
