by far, the key to this game. so how do we get it done? having pace back and gholston off the field will certainly help.
Go back and review tape of the Raven's defense against the Phins in last years playoffs. Ryan knows how to stop this offense if his players execute.
I have to believe that any team with deficiencies on offense will get crushed by Rex's defense. In this instance, the Dolphins do not have much of a passing game and will therefore have major problems moving the ball consistently.
Teams can't run directly at Gholston anymore, cus Calvin Pace is there. We were one of the best teams in the league at stopping the run last year until Jenkins got hurt. Run defense will be key but I'm not too worried about it. Rex knows to kill the wildcat and we're blitz the fuck out of Henne
One thing that could have helped the fins in this game is the heat. Sucks for them that the game got scheduled as a night game. The Jets will stack the box and key on Brown/Williams and make Henne beat them with passes.
There offense as a whole isn't anything to ride home about but there Rushing attack with that bullshit Wild-Cat is pretty damn effective and it will be the key to the game for us. Also we cant forget the Phins are the best defending the run in the NFL. It wont be as easy as we think especially on a MNF game in there shithole.
They can run directly at Gholston, but they will go out of bounds. Gholston will be sitting on the bench.
