Tour2ma Posted October 25, 2019 Report Share Posted October 25, 2019 Why..... The Pats haven't played anyone as yet. Not that we have exactly shown ourselves to be "someone", but we are the most talented "nobody" they've had to face. The talent we have is exactly the positions we need it to be to beat them. (see "How") We get our starting CBs back. There's a hint of distraction in Camelot. Two weeks to prepare. How.... on Defense: Pressure up the middle to move TB off his spot... every passing down either go double-A gap blitz or with 3 DL head up on NE's LG-C-RG. Stunt their asses off... Put our speed rushers inside... Edge pressure is a waste of time as Brady simply steps up. Use MG, OV or both inside early and often. Play Cover 3/2/1 over man... no need to worry about DBs turning their backs to the QB. Double Edelman... he's TB's security blanket... take him away. Use Ward here... especially when numbers will not allow double. Match Greedy on Sanu everywhere. Match Joe to whatever RB is in the game... punish PA... How... on Offense: Bring back the Baker RPO... get him hit.... get him fired up... get him pissed... get him in space. Unleash our WR speed... yes, Gilmore may shutdown OBJ, but OBJ neutralizes him. And, of course, give them a heavy dose of Chubb... 1 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mjp28 Posted October 25, 2019 Report Share Posted October 25, 2019 Yeah baby yeah that's the spirit! The undefeated and best ever Patriots against the bumbling BROWNS. This looks like the biggest massacre since Custer at Wounded Knee, it's over already. ......but somehow I still think our Brownies have a chance in this contest. Win and you keep the very slight and on life support BROWNS season going......lose and you go read Mel Kiper Jr's column. Plus as a bonus the CLE +13 should be good. GO BROWNS, I'm in.....baby! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jiggins7919 Posted October 25, 2019 Report Share Posted October 25, 2019 Tour, I so hope you're right. It would literally rejuvenate our entire season because if we lose, it's pretty much over. We CAN beat the Bills, but they're the EXACT team we don't play well against (physical, tough defense, etc). I think if we beat Patriots, we'll beat the Bills, but if we lose Sunday, we'll have difficulty pulling it out against the Bills. Tour, have you seen the weather forecast for our game? Geez man, it's AWFUL. Rain is listed as 100%, and I know that's never good. Our speed was one of our only advantages, and that downpour will severely negate that edge. Rain is also likely to exacerbate our turnover tendencies, so that's a bit scary. Perhaps the weather gods are wrong and it'll pass through without impacting our game, but it doesn't look very good.

MDDawg Posted October 25, 2019 Report Share Posted October 25, 2019 It's a winnable game contingent on Freddie fielding a DISCIPLINED team on Sunday.

I have friends that text me every Sunday (fans of other teams) they can’t figure out how and why we beat ourselves or the refs beat us. It’s comical to them. I finally have the blinders off. This week we may execute for 3 quarters and something stupid happens or the Pats charmed life takes over. Don’t listen to me...that Seattle game took all the hope out of the season.

And, of course, give them a heavy dose of Chubb... that is GREAT stuff. I do have a question: It won't happen often, but Brady loved to throw to Gronk back in the day, when the defense least expected it, for important first downs, especially. Their top two TE's are out of the game - leaving the old veteran Ben Watson...and Eric Tomlinson, another big TE. What would you do, to keep an eye on the TE position? He has thrown little to the TE's so far.... and that could be a major surprise if the Browns don't watch for it. Just sayin... and I agree with you on Sanu - he and Brady are really getting on the same page. Brady says he bring the "juice" and Sanu says he also brings the "squeeze". He won't be happy with Greedy covering him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ballpeen Posted October 25, 2019 Report Share Posted October 25, 2019 I agree about inside pressure. I mentioned on another board I would put Garrett insdie fairly often. He most certainly would garner the attention of the center, biving a backer of safety a pretty good chance up through the A. The other DT would simply have to hit hard on the guard outside shoulder to keep him off the blitzer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Canton Dawg Posted October 25, 2019 Report Share Posted October 25, 2019 My biggest concern for this game is Garrett’s health. From what I hear he’s been limited in practice this week with a bad knee. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nero Posted October 25, 2019 Report Share Posted October 25, 2019 I think that with our problems against the rush and the frame and phisicality (or lack thereof) of our secondary, they will try to run the ball a lot. Do the Pats prefer running inside zone or outside zone? Nevertheless D needs to set edge and gap discipline in the line. New England does not win because they have great players, they win as a team. We need no heroes, each one has to keep their assignment. Another key point for the game will be special teams. They have some blocked punts and I hope they don't get another one this Sunday. Belichick almost always wins this battle, so a tie on that department would be nice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He'll give up on the play early if you come straight at him. He knows that he can't outrun anyone to either side.

They use the pass AS the run. And they weave the run into the mix so it's successful. Which is exactly what WE should do. We should have Landry in the slot and he could be the Wes Welker for us that Edleman is for the Patriots (since Callaway doesn't seem capable)....and put Higgins out there as the #2. We HAVE the running back that we could weave into the mix so as to be successful at running the ball. - And ya can't just line up and say you're gonna run the ball down anybody's throat (including the Patriots), because they'll just take that away from you, and put you in 3rd and long (and the Patriots already have 18 int's after only 7 games).

The Pat's are using a lot of cover zero and 6-7 in the box, Chubb gets through it, and he could break o e. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
