I know the image of Cro punting that ball on a kickoff return against the Raiders is still fresh in people's minds (I had it as my avatar for about a week) but let's not forget that Cro is a darn good return man. If not for him, we probably wouldn't have gotten past the Colts in the playoffs last season. Even if McKnight can't go, Cro is a pretty good replacement.
Yeah, but I had him covering Plax, and he gave up 1052 years in the first quarter. IN YOUR FACE CHUNG-HOLE !!!
spikes and chung are two of their better players on defense. not saying much but without them their defense is pathetic digs and sergio brown lololol
I feel like Belichick thought he could put together a scrappy defense and have the offense compensate, and he has failed on both sides. The scrappy defense is definitely scrappy, too scrappy, and the offense seems to be figured out to an extent. Everybody knows what Welker is going to do, its just a matter of execution in being able to stop him. Woodhead isn't running the ball as effectively (not sure why, I guess he's just figured out?) I am not saying Welker is a one dimensional route runner, he is extremely multi-faceted that way, but teams are keen to this anyway, its just a matter of execution. I am also not saying Belichik is not a good coach either, I think he was really banking on getting productivity out of Haynesworth (a long shot, Haynesworth is not a fit up there in New England) and hoping scrappy guys like Ihedigbo and such could just get by. He wasn't THAT far off the mark, Im sure he expects to give up at least 21 points a game, so I think the offense is definitely more of the disappointment this year.
Our secondary is some no name scub moost of us have never heard of, and who would not even make the practice squad if we were not hurting so bad right now. Air it out and you will win...in a big way
Be careful what you wish for. If the Jets run the ball effectively, they have an excellent chance to win this game.
Really, you couldn't even be PatsFan2001? Come on at least make it somewhat believable that you are not a total Brady Band-wagoner.
Brodney Pool is out. Not the best to have a safety out when you're dealing with a team with two good tight ends.
How did he get hurt? Practice? Man I am always worried about those TE's BUT! With the way Revis Cro and Wilson have been playing I have ALL faith we will flood the middle with LB's and safetys
I think he got hurt in the Buffalo game and gutted it out. I guess adrenaline only carries you so far.
